    Who each paddle is for

    Bread & Butter Loco Standard 16mm

    Playing style: all-court

    JOOLA Vision

    Best for intermediate players (3.5-4.5) looking for a balanced upgrade who play with a balanced two-handed/one-handed mix. The standard shape rewards clean contact, the 14mm core balances pop and control, and the face surface keeps spin honest without overdoing it.

    Playing style: balanced
