Vatic Pro

For the past year I've been playing with a Vatic paddle and have loved it. I really wasn't looking to upgrade, but the price point on these paddles is unreal for the quality. I play at a 4.5 level and the vast majority of people I play with spend twice or more on their paddles. The difference in power I can get with the V-Sol Power is noticeable, but not uncontrollable. I've tried others that boast more "pop" but do so at the expense of control. Keep up the great work, Vatic - I'm a fan!

A great progression from the Prism Flash to the Saga Flash…..learning curve was zero.
Way more power on drives, without sacrificing control …..opponents commented immediately. Light enough for duels at the NVZ. Cannot be more pleased with this paddle.

I went from a Vatic Prism to Vatic Pro. I played once and I can see an improvement (more power and slightly better spin) with the new paddle. I am a casual player and my level is between 3.5 to 4.0.

I’ve been playing with the Prism and have been very happy. I like the feel of the prism for dinks and resets. I heard about the Saga having more power without sacrificing control and I wasn’t disappointed. It gives me extra power on drives and overheads but I can still maintain feel. Love this paddle!

After using the paddle for about 2-3 days, I felt really good about my hit. I'm very happy with it, especially for the reasonable price.

This paddle works great. I put 7.5g just above 3 and 9 and it hits hard and works great. Control is no problem with only the occasional over hit when being lazy.

I'm new to pickleball as of about 4 months ago, but am not new to racket sports, having played a decent amount of tennis and table tennis, along with dabbling with recketball and badminton. When I first was trying out the sport, I got a sub $50 paddle off of Amazon. Some of my buddies had recently upgraded to $200-$300 paddles and I couldn't match their power, spin, or control, but I wasn't willing to put that kind of $$ down on a sport I'm still new to. Looking for something with similar build technologies at a more affordable price, I landed on Vatic. My $100 paddle immediately evened the field for me. The greater pop from a much larger sweet spot was awesome, but my favorite thing is the spin! All of a sudden I could move the ball like I was playing table tennis! My serve started dropping in halfway to the back of the court, allowing/forcing me to serve harder, and my backhand got a little nasty. It surprised me how much an equipment upgrade could have an immediate impact on my game.

My buddies and I are quite truthfully somewhere in the 3.0-3.5 range. We have some power and control but need to work on learning the nuances and finesse of this game. I cannot speak to how well this racket holds up to $300+ alternatives or how it would do at a more competitive level, but do find it to be an amazing fit for me as I continue to progress.

Great paddle. Just like all the reviews say. I Added 3 grams at 3 and 9 o’clock and played nice. Good power and paddle still had decent control and maneuverability. Next outing I Will stack another 3 grams on top at 3 and 9 o’clock to see if there are net gains.
I’m in Canada total all in cost was $211 CAD. $40 went towards tariff charge. (Around 35%). Politics aside, would I buy it again with the extra tariff…yes but the great value Vatic Pro provided just got suck up by the government.

This paddle has a nice feel for both touch and spin. The handle is a little longer than my previous ones which is good.

I have only played with the paddle twice but so far loving it. Great control and plenty of power.

I'll start with the cons because I just want to get them out of the way... My shipping got messed up, I ordered 2 day shipping and paid $17 for it but their system apparent didn't print the correct shipping label so I got standard shipping instead that took 7 days. They refunded me for my shipping, I was disappoint I had to wait but the wait was worth it! Customer service was great.

Now for the pros: This paddle is awesome! It has effortless power, my serves are faster AND more accurate because I don't have to swing as hard. Yet, unlike my experience with the boomstick, this paddle is very plush and easy to control at the kitchen line while still having the pop for flicks and put-aways. I 100% would recommend this paddle!

For future versions (...cause I will be buying more) I would love some more colors of the paddle or for just the graphics on the face of the paddle to be a neutral color like white so I could customize it with my own color schemes and not worry about them not matching with the face of the paddle.

Love the pop, control and spin all seem better than the flash

Incredible paddle.

It has allowed me to keep my third shot drops consistent and with the new core, Ive been able to add a deceptive third shot drive using a compact swing.

Grabbing a second paddle before they sell out again.

I have 4 hours on the paddle, I've added 14 grams of weight including a tourna og overgrip, now 8.4 ounces. Paddle has medium high power with managable pop due to the foam core. Feel is more muted than a Gen 3. Spin is good, especially on serves and drives, more grit would help with spin on softer shots. As usual big time value from Vatic.

This is a great paddle. I have both the Pro and Power. The Pro has a forgiving sweet spot (added weight at 3 and 9). Plenty of power and control. Good weight and balance for fast hands and the firepower at the NVZ is top tier. Excellent dwell on the face so can put a nice amount of spin on shots. I highly recommend this paddle.
