Summary

The Vatic Pro Prism V7 16mm is an elongated paddle with a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core, known for balancing power and control. The carbon fiber face is often associated with control and feel. Weighing 8.3 oz with a swing weight of 128, it falls into the heavyweight category with a high swing weight. This combination may provide more power but could be less maneuverable for some. The 5.3-inch grip may not be ideal for two-handed backhands. The paddle's twist weight is 6.85, suggesting good stability on off-center hits. With a spin of 1941 RPM, a drive speed of 52.2 MPH, and a volley speed of 33.4 MPH, this paddle might be suited for players prioritizing control and seeking added power. The 16mm core thickness further enhances control-oriented play. While the high swing weight may benefit aggressive players, it could also be a limiting factor for those preferring lighter, faster paddles.
