CRBN 3 16mm (Power Series)
CRBN started the spin revolution and they remain as one of the best in that category. The CRBN 3X is elongated like their 1X model but with a shorter handle at 5.25″. Their Power series gives you a boost in power to combine with the forgiveness and spin you love from CRBN.

Still an incredible paddle, but the older model compared to the Perseus. Honestly for the price it's listed at nowadays this is a steal!Selkirk

Vanguard Power Air - Epic
This paddle is a slight improvement over 002. Great for power players and advanced players, but not very forgiving for lower levels
