DCP 18k the Saint

This paddle is great! I love the control and surface. Can't recommend enough!

The best quality paddles I have seen so far!!! Can’t wait for more designs to come out!

The day after I bought my new paddle a behemoth of a man I didn’t know ended up as my partner. He was very aggressive and on our first point, he rushed into my side of the court to slam-spin a ball I was ready to dink. He came down with all his force and whacked my paddle soundly with the edge of his. I never felt such a blow in the 10 years I’ve played. The paddle was slammed out of my hand and then crashed on the ground. After that, it sounded hollow and high-pitched on every shot I took (delaminated?). I was so disgusted and reached out to the company hoping for some advice. They graciously offered me a replacement paddle! I will be forever grateful for the excellent customer service and my experience with the rep, Kyle Eberly.

Demo’ed many paddles eventually got and played with the Diadem 18k Edge Power Pro for a couple months. Got my hands on this Saint and it’s a noticeable UPGRADE! So I of course purchased it. To compare it to the Diadem Power Pro 18k and the Saint are very similar shape, size, etc. except the Saint has MUCH BETTER consistency off the face and on off center hits and better balance. I love Diadem paddles but I would recommend this over the 18k Edge which will now be my backup paddle to the Saint.

Paddle is a little top heavy, but has good weight. Paddle for sure has some pop!
Face texture makes it great for slice and spin shots.
