Purchased the double black diamond after two years using an average paddle. Amazing feel and control with plenty of power when needed. Great paddle! Should have done this sooner.
The Double Black Diamond has outstanding maneuverability and responsiveness. I noticed a remarkable improvement in my shots’ accuracy and spin, giving me an edge over opponents during intense matches. My hands battle also fast. Additionally, the paddle’s durability is commendable, as it has withstood rigorous use without showing any signs of wear and tear. This longevity ensures that the paddle remains reliable and consistent, making it a wise investment for serious pickleball enthusiasts. It’s the best price on the market for the quality after using discount (Alpha10). I bought another one as a backup and I highly recommend to anyone who wants to improve their game.
DBD 16 mm paddle feels solid and well made with a large sweet spot. Grip is comfortable and tacky, handle length is good. More pop than my Joola Vision and gritty surface provides excellent control. In just a few weeks my play has already improved.
Love the pb paddle!
DOUBLE DIAMOND RC15MM: Great paddle! Awesome feel, control and generates a ton of spin. Note: The face is significantly smaller than others in the same price range.
Plenty of spin is generated with this paddle. Control is very good.
The one area that may need attention is off center hits are not very forgiving.
I may try to put some tape on the middle/bottom to improve the off center performance.
I was using an upper tier control paddle, great for control but no pop. I was looking for both and the 16mm, pro weight paddle delivered! It must be excellent balance that makes it feel like a natural extension of my arm and hand. There was no problem dinking, perhaps the extra weight made for a smoother stroke, I'm not sure but there was no popping them up (no more than with my old paddle). The extra power was obvious on serves, smashes and ground strokes. Baseline shots were dropping quickly with topspin. The pro weight worked just fine in firefights. Love this paddle.
Paddle provides excellent control. Will purchase the elongated version soon
I love playing with this paddle indoors and the Ruby infinity outside. 6.0 is the best quality and has a great look and feel. This is my 3rd order, I don’t think I’ll ever go with another paddle company!
This is my second Siz Zero paddle (currently have a Ruby). Love both paddles, but the Double Black Control has it all: power, control, and spin. Great paddles.
