The Black Ace that ProKennex has got insane power and the edge-less design is pretty sweet, imo. It's got a 10mm core, aka more power than most paddles. I like this brand for this paddle alone.

XSPAK took the pickleball community by storm back in 2022 releasing the first raw carbon fiber paddle for $100.
