RFP's take — our interpretation of the measured data

Who should actually swing it?

Honolulu positions the J6CR Crystal Blue Grit as a power-first paddle built to finish points. The measured numbers back that up: the low swing weight keeps your hands fast at the net, and the spin sits in the upper tier.

✅ 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.
