Great review. For this swing weight I prefer the hybrid shape Hudef Mage Pro Gen2. And you get a better deal with the discount.

Thank you for this in depth review ! The guy falling on his butt is too funny :)

I enjoyed your paddle review of the J3K and J3K Pro paddles.

[@DianSusiana98]

Good review. Is it worth the price?

[@TickleMyPickleball]

Thank you and yup I think they both come in at a solid price point. They're also pretty unique, there aren't any big name brand paddles that perform like them

[@LukasLwM]

How does it compare to the Joola Scorpeus? The shape of J3k and Scorpeus look similar to me.

[@TickleMyPickleball]

Yup it's the same shape but the scorpeus is a bit quicker to swing than the j3k which is on the heavier side for a standard shape. The j3k has a softer feel off the face but it can generate more power on drives because of the heavier swingweight

[@LukasLwM]

@@TickleMyPickleballI guess the J3K Pro is quicker and lighter and plays similar to the Scorpeus?

[@TickleMyPickleball]

@@LukasLwM no the J3 plays like the scorpeus.
J3k plays like a heavier and more powerful scorpeus with more control because it's more plush
J3K pro plays like the J3K but with more pop so compared to the J3/Scorpeus the Pro is heavier, more powerful, and more poppy

[@christoskoci2875]

Any idea how the J3k pro compares to the J1H? And which one would you recommend more?

[@TickleMyPickleball]

J1H is significantly more powerful and poppy. It's a slower paddle though with a much higher swingweight, even for an elongated shape.
I would recommend the j3k pro for more people as it's got more control and a better sweet spot

[@christoskoci2875]

@@TickleMyPickleball yes I have the J1H and it’s given me tennis elbow because of how heavy it is 😂 love the power though. Hopefully the J3K pro has decent enough power to get me through!

[@bsu88]

Which is better value for money J3K Pro or Neonic Flow?

[@TickleMyPickleball]

For value since they are both gen 2 thermos I would say the Neonic Flow as a better overall value. But their playstyles are both different

[@LouisBrown19]

Thanks for your review. This paddle is good. But my Hudef APEX Pro is lighter.

[@TickleMyPickleball]

That's true but the Apex pro is also not thermoformed and has a shorter handle
