Luca, great review as always! Thank you for your insight, and succinct & concise perspective! 🥊🙌
PS you do speak a bit fast, but I found I can put the playback speed at .75. 😉
Oops. I just got off the court with my Shogun to which I added 29 g of Slyce endcap and 3 g of lead tape at 4 o’clock and 8 o’clock. The static weight was obviously heavier than I’m used to but the paddle actually felt lighter and very powerful. Who knows what paddles will benefit from this new set up.
Custom weighting might be an interesting future video. Thanks again for bringing an intelligent voice to this subject.
Nice! And thanks for the nice comment!
Great review. I have had my Shogun since the first batch. It’s definitely all court and I think it hides its somewhat high swingweight.
Good review,could you do the Chorus Shapeshifter or the Honolulu J3K next ?
Thanks! Chorus will be very soon and the J3K as soon as we get it!
Great Video!!! Would love to see a comparison video of The Shogun to the 16mm Ruby if possible 🙌🏼
Would you want to do a video on grips...overgrips, replacement grips, dry vs tacky, which brand has the best grips, which grips are best in different conditions. Etc....I'm just throwing out ideas lol.
Great video as always!
Yes! Definitely! We’re actually making one very soon.
Once again, another great review from you, Luca! Re: paddle shape, do you think it is intentional, qc, or simply a different mold/manufacturer? iirc, the swing weight of the Filth is kind of high too.
Thank you very much! I think this one is intentional. It’s just so obviously not the shape of the Filth so I would guess they actively looked to create a new mold.
What tier would you consider this paddle in your tier rankings?
Thanks for another articulate paddle review. I just
I enjoy your paddle reviews and I appreciate your insight. Please consider shipping to the continental United States! I was gonna order one and no go on shipping to Washington State! Bummer
Could you please review the new Diadem 18K Speed Pro, and also loved the video❤
for a tennis player's understanding, when you describe this paddle as muted, would you describe that feeling to be similar to what a prince O-port/EXO 3 racquet feels like compared to a standard style tennis racquet design?
Kind of. Muted in tennis and pickleball are also pretty different but it’s still a similar idea where non muted has better ball feel.
Luca, compare the Shogun with the Hudef Viva Pro gen 3. I recently got the viva gen 3 and super impressed with it.
We don’t carry them, unfortunately.
the more reviews i hear about this the more i want it. but i want the shapeshifter & j2k too, lol) im so glad they shored up the issue with the filth's smaller sweet spot. it almost sounds like it plays power and control like an elongated gen 1 with perimeter weights (ie more plowthough power while retaining the plush, muted control) but gives you pop on punches.
took me a while to like it. At first, the handle was the main source of frustration. I made some modifications and not it's my main. The only issue is during an indoor singles game, the face chipped.
if you could do a review on the shapeshifter that would be amazing. awaiting mine in the mail
I played with the Shapeshifter for the first time yesterday and the hype is real. One more review first then that one’s next.
A truly excellent paddle.
I think you’re going to like the crispness of the Fat Boy. And it swings below its weight. I’ve blistered some overheads way beyond my normal abilities. When I’m too tense I go back to the Shogun.
Definitely getting the Fat Boy.
Very excited…
Your use of visuals adds a lot to the video.
Thank you!
Luca...please please please review the new Maverix Paddles, The Pro & All Court. They're not getting the promo they deserve!
We’ve been in contact so perhaps in the future but we’ve got a lot more coming first.
Looking forward for the fatboy
Not a big fan. Handle circumference is a little big for me after couple games feel a little forearm and shoulder fatigue. Had to go back to J2k
I had the same issue with my Shogun grip. I took the stock grip off and put on 2 Bodhi overgrips thightly and it opened the paddle back up similar to the Loco and FatBoy grips. I highly recommend removing the stock grip as it will help it feel more round vs rectangle!
@@jncgregg I put hesacore grips on all my paddles with one over grip. This one is just slightly too big.
@@pharm30 Gotcha, this is one you will easily be able to sell to someone else. The FatBoy is great if you end up looking at it when it releases in July!
@@jncgreggdid the exact same thing and it made a huge difference
…Mr. “Muted” lol.
😭😭
@@RacketsandRunnersPickleball I appreciate your content bro✊🏾.
