Summary
The Monarch Control 14mm by 11SIX24 is a wide-body pickleball paddle with a 14mm polypropylene honeycomb core, known for balancing power and control. The Kevlar and carbon fiber face is often associated with enhanced touch and durability. Weighing 8.1 oz with a 5.75-inch grip, it accommodates two-handed backhands. The 112 swing weight is considered low, promoting maneuverability. Its high twist weight (7.1) and corresponding high twist weight percentile (91st) suggest excellent stability on off-center hits. The paddle's spin (2072 RPM) and volley speed (35.6 MPH) rate highly (81st and 90th percentile, respectively). While the drive speed of 54.5 MPH is respectable (59th percentile), it is not the paddle's primary strength. This paddle may be suitable for control-oriented players who prioritize precision and stability, particularly at the net. The wide shape could offer a larger sweet spot. However, the lighter weight might not generate as much power as heavier paddles.
