Pros & Cons

Pros

I'm a pickleball newbie who wasn't prepared to break the bank on a paddle but wanted something better than the $10 cheapie that i was using. The z5 paddle performs as advertised. Great paddle for beginners.

The onyx paddle has a robust build. The craftsmanship is of high quality. The aesthetics and durability are great.



Cons

This paddle is wastly overrated. Just past the cutoff to send back. Not good. It's a shame it didn't hold up.

There are better beginner rackets and companies like valtic and six zero are making awesome top tier rackets for not much more money. Skills that are that are extremely difficult with this racket.
