The PBPro Gen-X4 has quickly become my FAVORITE paddle! I began playing nearly 10 years ago, and started with various demo paddles and played with Franklin for many years, until I tried the first PBPro!
My DUPR rating hovers from 3.8-4.3 SOLEY dependent upon tournament outcomes; however, I play/practice/drill several times/week with a group of 4.5-5.0 players, and the reason this paddle has quickly become my favorite is that it has just enough grit on the surface to allow for some spinning and “trick” shots, but still has the power to allow me to defend myself and play with the “Big Bangers”!
