Honeyfoam™ ESQ

This paddle is great! I really like the feel and the responsiveness. My serves have more zing and fewer mishits, compared to my Phoenix Genesis Pro. I'm also finding it easier to make a good shot when I'm a little out of position or have to make a difficult backhand.

Great power and sweet spot. More contact, great speed in hands, don't really need weights on edge guard but I do add a coin weight on the bottom. Not effortless power, which allows for drops and keeps the pop ups down. I like that the paddle will follow my swing, it produces great control. Enjoy the feel paddleteks provide, I know where I hit the ball on the paddle and can fix technique b/c I feel where corrections need to be made. Some paddles I can't feel where they are hitting, so modifications to my technique becomes difficult. Handle length is perfect and I find this paddle much better than TKO-C, but that may be shape preference. Premium feel that allows me to work on my game and get better.

I’ve been using the ESQ-C 12.7 for the past year and had a chance to demo the 16mm ESQ Honeyfoam paddle. I really liked how it played and felt, but didn’t love it since I’ve always used thinner paddles. I decided to order the 14mm version to try out and absolutely love it! It plays very similar to the 12.7, but even better.
