Review on ๐Ÿ“ Onix Graphite Evoke Tear Drop Pickleball Paddle: A Winning Combination of Tear Drop Design, Polypropylene Core, and Graphite Face by Johnny Santana

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very good sports paddle

Observations four months later: I have three more paddles, 7.6 oz, 8.0 oz and 8.6 oz. At 7 ounces, this is my lightest and quietest. Its polypropylene core is quieter than the aluminum cores on my others (which I like and have no problem with), and the design's graphite surface has more texture for control and cutting than the fiberglass surfaces on my other blades (which I like and have no problem with) I do not have a problem). ). Very durable so far. I've seen other graphite rudders break. I think the teardrop shape forces me, at least psychologically, to focus my strokes on the head of the paddle. My red on black logo is less noticeable. I don't know if this is an old or a new design. I prefer a simple design. I could not detect any loss of speed or power at impact. I have more accuracy on powerful shots and improved touch on the non-volley game - even more than my next lightest paddle. I'm sure part of this has to do with getting used to the paddle. I've been playing for 1.5 years. I was hesitant to spend $100 but worth playing 3-4 times a week. My game is better and I keep my body in shape.

Pros
  • Great feel and feel on the net
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
