Summary

The Flow Prime X by Neonic features a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core, known for balancing power and control, and a carbon fiber face, often associated with control and feel. Its hybrid shape combines elements of standard and elongated paddles. Weighing 8.1 oz with a 5.5-inch grip, it falls into the midweight category. The 116 swing weight is considered medium, indicating moderate head-heaviness.

This paddle may be suitable for intermediate to advanced all-court players. The combination of core and face materials could offer a blend of power and control. The 7.8 spin rating and 75th percentile in spin suggest good spin potential. The moderate swing weight may provide stability and power without sacrificing maneuverability. The 6.5 twist weight contributes to stability on off-center hits.

While the paddle's specifications suggest balanced performance, the lower drive speed (53.4 mph and 31st percentile) might not satisfy players primarily seeking power.
