    Who each paddle is for

    Holbrook Fuze Elongated 14mm

    Best for intermediate players (3.5-4.5) looking for a balanced upgrade who play with a balanced two-handed/one-handed mix. The elongated shape extends your reach at the kitchen line, the 14mm core balances pop and control, and the face surface keeps spin honest without overdoing it.

    Playing style: power

    Niupipo MG03 Pro

    Best for advanced power players (4.0+) who can manage a hot face who play with a balanced two-handed/one-handed mix. The elongated shape extends your reach at the kitchen line, the 13mm core delivers high pop with a tighter touch window, and the fiberglass face emphasizes pop over spin.

    Playing style: power
