PickleballCentral Expert's Corner:
Reviews of the Kinetic Pro Flight Ovation Paddle by Pickleball Central Staff:
"The ProKennex original Ovation in one of the go-to paddles in my bag. I use it if I ever feel a twinge in my elbow or shoulder, or when I feel like I need a little more pop in my game. I always feel I retain the control portion of my game with the added power. And with the new Pro Flight Ovation I feel like they have magnified the positives of the paddle and added a few new tricks, as well. The ball pops off the face even a little more. And with the paddle being a little lighter, I feel even quicker with this version. My arm benefits from the tungsten beads absorbing the energy, as well. And as for the new trick, the replaceable edge guard gives me more confidence to dig out the low shots without fear of chipping the paddle. And, with the new Diamond Frost High Texture face I can spin the ball more. My top spin misses that hit the top of the net climb over like never before (and goodness knows I need the help). I am impressed with how ProKennex keeps pushing the envelope with paddle technology."

"ProKennex has established itself as a builder of super high-end paddles designed to help people play longer, and with reduced pain due to its Kinetic energy vibration control technology. The new Flight Series delivers a new option for players wanting a lighter version of these paddles, but with all the power and control they have come to expect. My test unit of the oval shaped Ovation Flight paddle weighed 7.5 ounces. It felt incredibly solid for its light weight, with a high-texture face perfect for imparting spin on balls. The paddle has several upgrades over the original first generation model including the new Air-O-Guard edge protector, lighter weight design, and a new core/face combination that generates both power and spin. The shape on the Ovation Flight puts the sweet spot right in the middle of the paddle. As an ex racquetball guy, I tend to like the ball played up the face a bit more, so I prefer the rectangular Flight Speed version (see separate review). Almost all the ex-tennis players I've spoken with prefer the oval Ovation shape, so ProKennex seems to have a model for every preference. Congratulations to Steve Dawson on working with the team at ProKennex to design another winning paddle!"
