Black Opal 14mm

I been using Black Opal for 1 month already.
Very powerful with minimal effort for drive the bal lback.
Shock absorbing on this paddle is no joke, whatever ball drive towards me, can return back without my elbow, arm feeling any vibration.
The surface of this paddle is very gritty, u can spin the ball without any issue.
The only down side, it is the small sweet spot, need to learn how tweak the gameplay to match the paddle output.
Anyways, it definitely improved my gameplay as a whole.

The ‘Opal’ has outstanding maneuverability and responsiveness. I noticed a remarkable improvement in my shots’ accuracy and spin, giving me an edge over opponents during intense matches. My hands battle also fast. Additionally, the paddle’s durability is commendable, as it has withstood rigorous use without showing any signs of wear and tear. This longevity ensures that the paddle remains reliable and consistent, making it a wise investment for serious pickleball enthusiasts. It’s the best price on the market for the quality after using referral. I like this paddle so much I bought another one as a backu.

Six Zero’s Black Opal is an amazingly powerful paddle. It’s slightly top heavy, but it still feels well balanced in your hand. Drives feel effortless, and the dense foam core plus gel layer really work well together to give shots a very satisfying and addictive feel. The silicone in the handle does noticeably reduce vibrations. The Diamond Tough paddle face surface enables you to create an amazing amount of spin, which is essential as you will need the extra top spin to keep your shots from sailing out! The downside is that the paddle’s sweet spot is small and unfortunately any contact outside this area is effectively dead. Also, it will take a fair amount of practice to learn how to control and adapt to the paddle’s high level of unforgiving poppy-ness. Overall, I found it to be a lethal paddle in singles matches, and have yet to master control over it for doubles.

A much improved feel and control without losing any power. Soft touch is great. Excellent paddle, highly recommend.

I was stunned by the feeling of my new Black Opal. Could feel and hear a powerful difference from my Black Diamond (which I still love).

If you’re serious about improving, this is an investment worth making.

Great Paddle

This paddle is amazing! I love it. It has lots of pop, power, spin AND control. Six Zero has created another great paddle!

I come from a tennis background and brought over a few bad habits to my pickleball game. The two bad habits are a big backswing and over gripping my paddle. The Black Opal is a power paddle and does a lot of work for. I’m finding that I don’t have to take my usual backswing to get pace on the all. It’s also forcing me to have a softer grip on the handle allowing my soft game to improve.

If you want to get better at pickleball, you definitely need to get your hands on the black opal. Let me clarify. This paddle will make you better at pickleball not because it is forgiving, in fact it is the opposite. This paddle responds very well as long as you know what you are doing. It will also point out your mistakes, every-single-time. you will be forced to play pickleball the way the sport was meant to be played. If you are a serious player, looking to up your game play, then take up this paddle and be ready to be challenged. This paddle will not do the work for you, you will have to work hard to earn its respect. It will not hold your hand and sing kumbaya with you, it will show you every bit of bad habits you have learned so far and correct you. If you want to challenge yourself and get better at the sport, go ahead and pick this paddle. If not, just stick to whatever you got.

The pop is tremendous, but controllable. The paddle is deceptively “spinny”, even more so than the Red Ruby Pro. Two weeks after the new Ruby, I had the Black Opal in my hands and have not put it down since.
