The paddle came well-packaged, no scratches or dents, and looked even better in person than I expected. Overall, I feel like it strikes a nice balance between power and control, and it's been a big step up from the basic paddle I started with. I wish if you add a little more punch to give it extra power. This makes this paddle a solid 5 star.
I am a fan of this paddle. The Warping Point edgeless paddle is well-made. It is a lightweight, balanced paddle. I like that the design on the paddle is underneath the grit (no slick spots). There is plenty of grit on this paddle (which means control and spin). The paddle has a large sweet spot. It is a durable paddle. The face does not mark up easily (still looks like new). It has a comfortable grip. The paddle comes with edge tape, stickers, and a versatile bag (instead of a neoprene cover). This paddle is good for advanced and intermediate players. The Warping Point paddle is a very good value. I enjoy playing with this quality paddle.
This Warping Point Raw Carbon Fiber Pickleball Paddle has an edgeless design. I definitely like the edgeless design as I have been known to hit the ball off the edge and I seem to have more control with the edgeless paddle. The paddle has an Endura Friction Surface which should make it easier to put a spin on the ball but unfortunately I haven't learned that technique yet. I am hoping this paddle makes it easier for me to pick that up. It has a 16mm Thermoformed Black Core which provides a larger sweet spot. I like the feel of this paddle in my hand and I seem to have more accuracy with my shots. This is a well made paddle especially for the price. Several of the individuals I play pickleball with have this same Warping Point paddle and they are very happy with theirs too.
This edgeless pickleball paddle comes with a bag, edge tape, and stickers, which makes it feel like a good value for money. I usually see a neoprene face cover, not a bag like this. The bag is lightly cushioned with a soft liner, repositional dividers, and an elastic hook-and-loop strap that holds the handle. The dividers attach with hook-and-loop and can be removed. Keeping them creates two wells that fit 2 pickleballs each for a total of 4, though balls on the opening side are more likely to fall out when accessing the inside. There is a simple but spacious pocket across the top of the lid for a phone, keys, wallet, and other small items. The fence hook tucks into a pocket on the back. The hand strap has a plastic D-ring for attaching the sling strap, which adjusts and uses swivel clips. The stickers are a nice extra, and the white edge tape helps protect the edge from scrapes.
The paddle looks sharp with the visible carbon fiber weave and crisp lines of color. The paint lies beneath the grit, so there are no slick surfaces. The grit gives good spin, and the hits feel crisp. It is light but feels a tad heavier than my other paddles. I feel a little more of the impact, yet it adds a bit more power, with a big sweetspot and no dead spots. After my first test, the face shows no marks, which speaks well for its durability. The edgeless design is more vulnerable to accidental scrapes, but it feels more streamlined. The grip tape is perforated for sweat control. Overall, I like the paddle. Warping Point is on point for aesthetics and accessories. The paddle plays well, though I prefer a touch more comfort. It would be good for someone who needs a little help getting the ball over the net and for someone who wants to upgrade from basic.
Paddle came as advertised. Good size, texture and weight. Comfortable grip. The extra grip tape was also nice to have, and it was really nice to have a carrying case included. The paddle hits well and feels good quality.
