Why this paddle fits his game
Like many padel converts, Martinez Vich plays with excellent touch and court sense. A 16mm control-leaning paddle gives him a bigger sweet spot and the feel to reset and place the ball — strengths that translate directly from the padel court to pickleball’s soft game.
Should you use his paddle?
A 16mm control paddle is a great fit for players who value touch, consistency and a forgiving sweet spot. If you play a power-and-drive game, a thinner build may suit you better. Our best control paddles guide covers the forgiving options, and our full pro paddle list shows who plays what.
