RFP's take — our interpretation of the measured data

Who should actually swing it?

Volair positions the Shift EL 14mm as a power-first paddle built to finish points. The measured numbers back that up: the heavier swing weight trades some hand speed for plow-through power, with a balanced, mid-sized sweet spot.

✅ Great for: players who want to end points with pace and plow-through.
⛔ Look elsewhere if: you want maximum hand speed and a soft touch at the net.
