Love the power it gives me on my drive shots. I don’t have to swing as hard. I’m also left handed so my slices are crazy. Even I don’t know where they are going to end up.
The paddle is amazing. Great spin and control. Totally loving it
Loved the DBD but wanted more spin potential. The Ruby took a while to adjust to. After a couple of moths of struggling I finally adjusted to the new racket. I almost went back to the DBD. Now I’m very happy and have a second ruby. I thought that a racket by the same manufacturer, same thickness and shape would play similar but with more spin. For me it was a very different racket and I had to put in the time to adjust. I am comfortable with the ruby now and highly recommend it. If you make the switch from DBD be warned it may take some practice and time to adjust.
I recently bought the Ruby and I think it's the best of my 3 Six Zero paddles. The black diamond, double black and Ruby are all top of the line paddles. The Ruby is the newest and has become my go to paddle, but the other 2 are every bit as good. The only thing I change on them is the handle tape. I have to have tape that absorbs the sweat or the paddle will slip in my hand. (I like Lizard wrap for this.) The Six Zero paddle faces are amazing for spinning and controlling my shots. Thank you Six Zero for an amazing paddle at a reasonable price. 💕
I'm new to pickleball and I've been using the facility's loaner paddles for weeks. I decided to go big and went for ruby since I played a lot of table tennis and can do some decent slices. This thing puts ridiculous spin on the ball and my opponents are not ready when I go for the slice.
Received my Ruby 14 mm last week and already I feel a difference in my game. I feel I have more control and accuracy. My other paddle is the DBD elongated 15mm and I do love that paddle it does have more power, but felt he Ruby has a better all around control for me and a wider sweet spot.
I have read reviews off the 14mm Ruby before purchasing one. Already use the 16mm, so I was very interested in experiencing the difference.
I have to say it delivers more pop, but in saying that, it is subtle. I like that it is not dramatically different but enough to make a difference.
Being new it certainly looks better than previously as it has had a hard life.
The Ruby felt awesome! I added about 4 grams of weight at 10- and 2- o'clock, and now it feels practically perfect for swing weight, balance, and overall weight. I've played as well as I ever have with the Ruby paddle. I'll keep the Ruby has been still good after playing with it for 3 months. The Price was fair after using referral discount (Alpha10). I highly recommend to anyone who wants to improve their game and dupr . You guys are going to love it too!
I started learning playing pickleball just 3 months ago. Within that 3 months I have tried and tested paddles from different brands. But when getting my own paddle, Ruby was calling me. And I know why. It gave me a lot of control and power when needed. In the 3 months I've been using Ruby, I was told and complimented on my game as if I was a long time player. Ruby is my game style. Although I am waiting for my 14mm Double Black, to transition to a new play style. I still wish to use Ruby. Never forget your first.
Great paddle! Great customer service!
