6 0 Black Diamond Power & 6.0 Double Black Diamond Control Pickleball Paddle Review

6 0 Black Diamond Power & 6.0 Double Black Diamond Control Pickleball Paddle Review by Famous By Friday Pickleball

[@phyllisrosen7637]

Just got my 6.0 DBD 16 mm. I LOVE THIS PADDLE! Control, spin, drives and a monster at the cross dinks! This is the King of all paddles!

[@stephanieschultz4766]

I like that you showed time on the court for one reason. It validates that you were testing and using the paddle. It built trust. Thank you, it is helpful to see a down to earth review.

[@glennevans9910]

I've had my DBD 16mm for a couple of weeks now and I absolutely love it! The control is powerful and the power is controllable. Worth the wait and more than worth the money.

[@billpaige6595]

You never mentioned the price ! If you could mentioned the price & warranty that would be nice .Thanks

[@nursenina8]

$180 for either model.

I've had the DBD Control for about 6 months. The large sweet spot is what sells it for me. I rarely, rarely feel a mis-hit. It is so easy to hit drops without fear that you will put it into the net.

[@2be1withU]

Even if you miss hit, it is stable enough that it will plow through.

[@EddieDBama]

I got to test a DBD Control a few weeks back. Coming from my Joola Swift, this felt magical. I was hitting shots that my opponents and partners were blown away. That said, I had to give it back. Now the wait. The hardest part.

I have 14mm DBD. Favorite paddle I’ve played with. love it.

[@jerryzimmerer7634]

I just got the double black diamon in July ( 2023 ) and I love it. The spin i get is amazing and i feel the power is very good also. Im very happy with it !

[@billkennedy401]

I had a first gen DBD and ended up crushing the core - but I LOVED the paddle. After the whole delam issue, they made some changes - I'll be getting another. (I preferred it over my 003)

[@jmogyoro]

You did not crush the core. The core is crushed from the factory. It's a manufacturing defect that is hidden. Mine, received in July 2023, lasted about a day. The underlying root cause has not been fixed.

I am absolutely sold on the hybrid shape of these paddles, mainly due to the noticeably lighter swing weight and increased maneuverability when compared to the elongated style paddles I had been using prior. My current main is the 16mm DBD and I love it. I have 2 lead weights on the bottom corners that bump the overall weight up to 8.7oz (compared to 8.4 w/out) and don't feel like I lose much maneuverability w/the extra weight. Not sure I really need the extra weight on the DBD to be honest. I also have a 14mm Vatic Flash which is another excellent hybrid paddle that feels even lighter and more maneuverable than the DBD. This one I definitely need the extra lead on cause it feels like I don't get enough plow through w/out it. But both fantastic paddles. 👍🏻

First time watching one of your videos and I was shook when you started playing at the Matrix!! LOVE my DBD control, it just arrived on Monday and I can’t get enough.

[@robedwards6926]

I bought the BD and I'm loving it. It literally changed my game 👍

[@ER_aka_RAM]

Thanks for the detailed review! I’m looking into the Control model and stoked to hear that the power is in the Control. Are the grip bevels defined enough that you can feel the notches?

[@joemontgomery6109]

Kids fighting in the background is hilarious

[@phyllisrosen7637]

Getting mine this month after waiting for several mo the! Stoked to get the DBD 16 mm! Worth the wait!!

[@mariar4624]

I have the DBD 14mm LOVE LOVE LOVE

[@SSJChar]

nice review. sounds like a real winner

[@OrganicHealer]

Since I beat Anna Bright in singles with the BD Power , I'll stick with it. :) - Pickles Paul

[@maureensirois4830]

I had a demo I tried and I loved it. I ordered the 6 zero double black diamond 14mm and when I hit with it, it felt "flat" with little pop. Perhaps it just the different feel I have to get use to. Do you suggest weighing the sides at all? Thanks

[@TheAgaveSpirit]

I just got the 16 mm black diamond and I find that the sweet spot is smaller than my 14 mm Vatic Pro.

[@carlphil450]

Great comments

[@famousbyfridaypickleball9393]

Thank you!

[@carlphil450]

@@famousbyfridaypickleball9393 Got the 16 mm BD, very satisfied, got the chance to try a demo before buying.

[@Itiswell215]

How would you compare these paddles to the CRBN 2x and 3x?

[@CruiserDawg]

Have you tried the Rombus Pulsar? Can you compare those 2 to these?

[@chongqinghotpot]

Been using Selkirk amped S2. Which 6.0, power vs control, is similar to it and would be an easier transition? Also which surface is harder? Thanks

[@glennevans9910]

It was $180.00 retail but I used a 10% off coupon from another KZbinr channel. So, $162 all in. Not sure what the warranty is.

[@Josh49546]

Warpath. Where did u get that target basket? I want one.

[@richardb7093]

Just ordered the Power!

[@thors4873]

Same! But only because DBD wasn’t available 😅

[@richardb7093]

@@thors4873 got notified that the DBD was available. Order it when it stated they were available..All were sold out in seconds..

[@robedwards6926]

I just bought the DBD 14 mm and now I want the power 🤦

[@mariar4624]

Me too lol

[@Positively46]

Can you tell me why? Are you keeping both or did not like it?

[@2be1withU]

Got to use proper technique with topspin for the drive or else the ball will just fly long

[@miroslodki2195]

anyone experiencing a reduction in grit level over time?

[@linschulze8260]

Thanks for the review! Constructive criticism, at least from my point of view, watching you but balls for a couple of minutes really does nothing for the review. I would rather just hear the specs and your take on it, after you have played. That being said, thank you for the review!

[@logical333]

Not sure why anyone would want to watch you use the paddle on a court, maybe I'm missing something. Yes, 6.0 DBD is awesome. The newest version isn't harsh.
