wide body
The Volair Mach 2 Forza is a wide-body paddle with a 14mm polypropylene honeycomb core, known for balancing power and control. The carbon fiber face is often associated with control and feel. Weighing 7.7 oz with a 108 swing weight (considered low), it should be relatively easy to maneuver. The 5.5-inch grip accommodates most players. The paddle's spin rating is 8.4/10, placing it in the 91st percentile for spin generation. Its drive speed and volley speed ratings are 5.3/10 (18th percentile for power) and 5.9/10 (47th percentile for pop) respectively. The high twist weight rating of 6.3/10 (82nd percentile) suggests good stability on off-center hits. This paddle might be suitable for players prioritizing control and spin, potentially at the expense of some power. The wide-body shape may offer a larger sweet spot. While the lighter weight enhances maneuverability, it might generate less power compared to heavier paddles.
