I bought this paddle. No brand pays for placement.

How I measured this

Every number in this review is one I measured with my own equipment and instruments. Swing weight on a Briffidi SW1, twist weight on a Briffidi TWA2, static weight on a precision balance scale, serve speed and punch volley speed with a radar gun, spin from a high-speed camera at over 500 frames per second, surface roughness with a stylus roughness tester. It's the same setup for all 638 paddles I've measured.

Swing weight 111.1 · Twist weight 7.5 · Spin 2,168 RPM · Static weight 8.2 oz · Serve speed 57.6 MPH · Punch volley speed 37.6 MPH

If a metric is missing above, this paddle hasn't been through that test yet. Full measurements for the Mach 2 Forza 16mm are on its paddle page. My method is written up on the methodology page, and every paddle I've measured is in the paddle data study.
