Customer Reviews
I have now been playing with your Twill paddle for the last week. My game continues to improve especially the soft game extra control on the paddle. I expect that it will only get better thank you.
I’ve enjoyed playing with my original Thompson paddle since day one but wished it had an octagon shaped handle. My wish has come true. I now have a second Thompson paddle and this has made a great paddle even better. Loving the new handle shape!
I like everything about the paddle , the weight ,how it feels in my hand, the texture on the pad
The Twill has good levels of power and pop. Great stability with off centre shots and plays excellent with drives at the baseline and dinking at the kitchen line. It's very well built and has a nice weighty feel to it. No need for additional weighting, plays great stock.
As a spin-heavy former tennis player coming from a Diadem 18k edge I expected to gain more power but was less optimistic I would see more spin. I see a lot more pop on my volleys and I am also seeing more spin on my drives and serve, creating a much more challenging and consistent shot. I also really enjoy the grip. At the net my hand sits nicely between the butt and the notch and I can slide the butt into my hand on drives to feel like I can really whip it without losing confidence in my grip. I still may add tape to help shore up off center volleys a bit but otherwise i'm very happy.
