    Good review, I found about the samething. My take is that the closer you get to the net, the more the Luxx shines. At 72, I am not generating my own power to the paddle that may be needed.

    This is absolutely wild. Two of the biggest paddles coming out are polar opposites - extreme power vs extreme control. And honestly, I can see a 50/50 split in popularity. People from high level tennis who are used to full swings, pickle pros, advanced pickle players will probably love the control paddle. The bangers, singles players, and people with less ability to generate power or people still learning their swing mechanics and are perfectly fine with shorter and smaller strokes will love power of a gearbox. As a former tennis player and someone who doesn’t put a whole lot in paddles, I kinda hope the other reviews aren’t like this because if so, I’m going to buy it! 😂😂

    • @edjupickleball
      @edjupickleball  Год назад +4

      I only got to test out the gearbox for a few minutes, but i hit like 5 balls out on my flicks-- definitely polar opposites. It makes sense that Jack Sock, who has tons of power, simply wants a control paddle that helps him keeps balls in.

      @@ZeroZeroVu actually, it would be VERY cool to see a comparison of these paddles. Like I don’t know what your skill level is, but to see difference would be fascinating. Like, how does power compare to someone who’s able to have full swing on a “soft” paddle, vs maybe more compact swings on a “extreme” power paddle…. Because just by initial thoughts, if I can get big power (by essentially using more effort for power) from a soft paddle AND have insane touch vs. maybe less effort for power and not as much control….what’s better for people? People with higher level games will be fine with a paddle they have to try harder with? Would be fascinating to see…I bet you would get a ton of clicks if you compare 😂

      @@edjupickleball bingo. Everyone wants “power”, but just by watching your homie play with the Luxx, if someone has solid mechanics, you can always get power from a paddle. Conversely, it’s darn near impossible to get extreme touch and control from a power paddle….

    Thanks for all the details on the Luxx. Looking into the S2 for the answer to slowing down my game style. Sweet spot size sounds like it will help me do what I want to accomplish. I use a "ping pong" grip, so the short handle makes me want to try it. Hoping for a demo session when I find a dealer/Rep near me.

  • @MoeMuzic13

    May I ask, was the paddle you were holding at the end of the video, the epic version or the wider S2?
    Thank you for the in-depth video, I've been seeing more of these paddles on the court.
    I'm not a smashing player, I tend to play with control and create shots which I hope this paddle could help me even more.

      @joshuawilson0682 Год назад +2

      I’ve played with both and the 13s will have more pop it’s only 13mm and has the lightest swing weight of any thermoformed paddle. while the luxx has 8 more mm of material for the ball to sink into and favors placement over power and speed.
      13s: fast and pop
      Luxx: slower and plush

    I have the invicta power air and tried the luxx control air. In my opinion, played with the Luxx for 10 minutes and was not impressed. Both paddles come with the same roughness technology. In my opinion they dialed back way too much on the Luxx. Power air has 2 problems, if you can't harness the power not good for you. Second, if you hit with the power air continuous, you can form tennis elbow due to vibration.

    • @edjupickleball
      @edjupickleball  11 месяцев назад +1

      They’re very different paddles! Luxx is a thicker paddle, way lighter, with a completely different surface. Luxx is easier to maneuver and control.
      Labs 006 is more powerful and better spin. If you can handle the weight, the labs 006 is a weapon.

      Mine should be coming soon- I plan to test that and the epic shape and review it! I don’t think they’re as popular due to the shorter handle. But if you use a ping pong grip or just prefer shorter handles they can feel better.

      The one I’m showing in the video is Invikta. I’m getting my hands on epic and S2 soon so I’ll make another video about that. But I’m generally, the Invikta shape is more preferred because of the longer reach and handle length.
