Soft slices and lifts came off the paddle with ease and consistency. I found that dinking and net play is where this paddle performed the best. When I was taking volley shots at the net, this allowed me to be more controlled with my delivery and feel more comfortable going for the lines. There is a large sweet spot on this paddle that noticeably limited my mishits. I was able to hit from the net to the baseline just as easily as I was able to take a wide dink to the Kitchen. This made each shot feel predictable and comfortable. The first thing that I noticed when I began playing with this paddle was the balance between power and touch. The Paddletek Tempest Wave II shines in this area of the game. When I think of a control paddle, my mind immediately jumps to the word ‘consistency’ being able to consistently put the ball where you want it on the court with the proper amount of spin and finesse. Using their new graphite face in conjunction with the leading edge of core materials adds up to one of the most advanced paddles on the market today. This high grade graphite polymer composite honeycomb enhances the feel and control that the paddle can offer. Tempest Pol圜ore technology shows Paddleteks continued development of new core materials. I have spent the last few weeks playing with this paddle to see if Paddletek has delivered the accurate touch they claim. Paddletek describes this paddle as being ideal for the control and touch style of player. This paddle has a textured graphite surface and a graphite polymer composite honeycomb core in a typical Pickleball Paddle shape. The Tempest Wave II is their intermediate offering in the Tempest line. You can also find it on the medal podium in the hands of Catherine Parenteau. The Tempest line is the favorite of Paddletek athlete Dave Weinbach. Paddletek has been a leader in Pickleball Paddles for a long time and their paddles can be seen in the hands of many of today's top pros.
