Nice paddle, bit heavy, good grip, ergo grip feels weird when switching grip.
Bought this paddle because my other paddle I bought a couple weeks prior started to lose grip. I play ping pong almost an hour a day (breaks at work m-f) and this paddle is showing no sign of wear yet. Additionally this paddle has much more grip. Ergonomic handle is nice when playing regular but it does feel awkward if you're trying to switch the paddle around to get a weird shot. Paddle is heavier than most so you have to tap the ball lighter. Takes some getting used to but I do like it.

Good heavy paddle, reccomend scraping logo off.
I actually really like this paddle i got it to replace my killerspin, i like that its heavier and it has good grip for spin. My only complaint is the logo, i wish they would have placed it lower or on the handle as it has a noticablly different grip, less from what i could tell the ball would slide, than the rest of the material. I was able to scrape it off with a knife, very carefully to not do any damage, and it works great! For the quality and price id be willing to buy it again in the future and scrape off the logo.

Feels Great
I like to think I am an Advanced home player. I was looking for a good bat and I stumbled across this. The ergonomic handle feels great in my hand!!! It also has a nice weight to it, and grips the ball well. The only possible downside I have found after playing with it, is that the little logo in the middle is slick compared to the rest of the rubber. I havent had any real issues with it, but you can definitely feel it when you rub your finger over it. But over all i absolutely love this paddle! Turns some heads

Great feel and decent play
This is a really nice paddle and I really like the feel in my hand. I bought the 6 star and it plays well. The only negative I can say is the graphics on the paddle have a different grip than the rest of the surface. I understand the desire to market their product but wish it didnt impact the surface.

Nice ergonomic handle, average grip, sounds hollow?
I had to replace my old paddle and decided on going a bit different than the typical Stiga or Butterfly. Saw this Airblades and thought I'd give it a shot. I was willing to get the 6 star paddle but none were available so got the 3 star since all that was different was the type of wood used.The grip on this is alright. I've played with much stickier pads and this one seems to be more of a "matte" kind of grip rather than sticky (probably easier to clean too). This paddle can put spin as you want without problem. The logo, as others have mentioned, is kind of in the way and different texture as the rest of the pad. I haven't had any problems but just a note.The handle was probably the selling point for me. Looks aggressive and feels comfortable in the hand (when held the right way). It does feel weird when it's flipped the other way but not often do I flip the paddle during a real match.My only con and deduction of a star would be the hollow sound it makes when hitting the ball. Sounds like there's "dead" spots on the paddle where wood isn't present. Maybe this is the difference between the 6 star and the 3 star, but definitely noticeable when playing. I feel like I would have to hit the ball a little harder than usual to makeup for the hollow spots. Otherwise, it hits the ball over the net lolOverall, I would say this is am all around casual paddle. Good for pick up games and relaxing matches with your people. Looks to be of good quality and should last years if taken care of. I do have to add that the case it comes in is sturdy and stylish. I would recommend this to anyone wanting something different and not your typical black/red paddle!

Everything they say and MORE
This paddle is a perfect weight for an intermediate to advanced player. I'd consider myself and my coworkers mostly advanced players, and we were all nearing a skill level where any given person could win and once I ordered this I got just enough of an edge with my control and spin that I was winning 4 outta 5 instead of 50/50. So much so that a couple of them ordered as well and now we are all sitting around same set again, it is crazy how much a difference the paddle makes. Our boss is def the best player, and runs a 120$ blade and I am now able to win 3 outta 7 games with him, before it was 1 outta 10 so for the price point this is the best paddle money can buy. They also honor their warranty 100% awesome customer Service. Allan replied to my request for help and took care of my issue instantly! I can't say more great things about them. I am getting these for everyone I know that plays ping pong for Christmas this year!!!!!

Good paddle for someone who wants to improve ping pong skills
This paddle has changed the way I play ping-pong. It's a little heavier than what I'm used to and the handle is curved (something I'm finding is a much better alternative to the standard straight handle), but the padding really sells it. My shots are faster and have more spin than normal, and I'm able to return shots with more accuracy. I would definitely recommend this paddle to someone who's a bit more advanced - it's not for beginners - or wants to take their game to the next level.

A Pro paddle for less $. Buy it
Like- Innovate company, shaking up the industry by developing something NEW!- Look different. Appealing and eye catching. Not the sheep mentality ( Every other paddle out there looks the same)- Great customer support and warranty- Good paddle weight and feel ( ergonomic handle)- Great feel on the hits ( high quality rubber and wood )- Shipped with a nice protective case- Great priceDislike- Logo printed in the middle of the hitting surface of the rubber because that area becomes less tacky and affects ball grip. Not a deal breaker.Suggestions for improvement -- Models with thicker grip sizes to accommodate some bigger palm sizes.- Maybe include options to get rubberized textured handles for better grip.- Offer different colored rubber options. The cream can look dirty fast.

Good
The paddle (5-star) is a little heavier than what I'm used to. Wish I had started with the lighter one instead but I guess it's just a matter of getting used to it. I like the unconventional curved handle which is shaped to fit comfortably in the hand. The paddle gives a good bounce and it's easy to deliver a spin. The beige colored surface of the sponge looks nice but gets dirty easily. Comes with a lovely case.

Ergonomic handle
I like the weight of the bat, and the shape of the handle. It is a shape of handle that needs getting used to. It can’t be used in competition, as it isn’t the traditional colour.
