Coming from a Vatic Prism Flash last year I was looking for a little more power, a little more pop, and a little more spin. And what I got was all that and a great price. Plus the red accents make it a sharp looking paddle.
This paddle has everything I need in a paddle. Power, spin and control. I put lead tape on the sides and top to add stability and it has helped me win 4.5 tournaments. Unbelievably low price for such a high performance paddle.
I've been playing for about a year mostly at the park but recently at a couple tournaments, and went through the normal progression of upgrading paddles as I got better. I played a Paddletek Bantam, and then got various Juciao paddles, and was playing most recently with a Joola Hyperion. I've tried a bunch of friends paddles to compare, but never really found one that just clicked. I played this Centurion tonight, and it is solid. Fantastic for the price. I was placing serves, hitting hard, and dinking well. Felt very similar to the Hyperion so it was almost no adjustment period, and I think I like it as much as my favorite Juciao (but I can use the Centurion in tournament play bc its USAPA approved). Great Paddle, Great Price, Highly recommend.
Really good elongated paddle with longer grip for two handed backhand at a great price.
great paddle. beautiful design, excellent quality, increased control and power, good fit for my hand and appreciate the longer handle
