Paddle of The YEAR? | Paddletek ESQ-C Review

[@PickleballPursuit]

Forgot to mention these paddles have internal weighting which is why the 12.7mm paddle has a slightly higher twist weight than the 14.3mm. Hope you all enjoy the review!

[@MattyRut2922]

You know its special if it compels you to main it for two weeks (2!). No more NEW WEEK NEW MAIN. Thanks for the review.

[@Prydesterr]

Your reviews are top tier. Great editing while staying concise and enjoyable. Great job again!

[@jeffreyvelez5727]

High praise from a person that has basically tried every paddle on the market….much appreciated great review….thanks

[@twodubz2280]

I haven’t heard a bad thing about these paddles so far. Crazy that the 12.7mm paddles has such a good twist weight. This paddle breaks all the rules and is still killing it!

[@RTJ-PB]

Just received my 14.3 ESQ-C - absolutely loving it - i put three, 6 inch strips of .5 g/inch tape on - one at 3, one at 6, and one at 12. This provided extra power, boosted the twist weight and broadened the sweet spot quite a bit. Because the paddle has such a low swing weight to start, it still feelings super fast and light even after the weight. It really is a great paddle - thanks for the review - awesome job as always!

[@babakganji1045]

Amazing how gen 1 is out performing and the new tech

[@cardinals5516]

Thanks for the great review and giveaway! Also, thanks for convincing me that the 14.3mm is the better fit for me.

[@limaechosierra9084]

Thank you Lewis for your, this has been probably my 4th review on this paddle and now greatly influenced in giving this paddle a try. Greatly appreciate your work.

[@DavidSanchez-px3wc]

New week, new main! This paddle is absolutely my ideal paddle. Thanks for the great review.

[@briles24]

i love the short & sweet reviews you do. Thanks for all the ground work you do for us. Peace.

[@takeoutmadeeasy]

Can’t wait to get my hands on the 14.3! Great review as always.

[@jhp14]

Paddletek is killing it this year! Nice review

[@wensdaypickleball]

Good work! Great to see how you guys have grown as a channel

[@fudgebugladybug]

I love standard/wide body shaped paddles with longer handles and have been eyeing this one as an upgrade for more power!

[@jasonwalker1959]

I was a bit underwhelmed by the paddle until I did a lead set up nearly identical to yours. Now I absolutely love it.

[@jamesrichardson2465]

FINALLY!! The ALW-C 14.3 was my first and current paddle, so I’m glad that Paddletek finally came out with an upgrade! 🔥🔥🔥

[@HowieB-isMe3885]

14.3 mm sounds like a winner for most people. Love the combination of power and control as well as light swing weight.

[@colemanho3375]

I’ve been really wanting this paddle, paddletek has come along way to becoming a reputable company, it’s pretty impressive that a gen 1 paddle can still have such a good sweet spot and power

[@chasewarner]

I agree this is one of the most interesting paddles to come out this year.

[@mariol1357]

Sounds amazing! Thanks for the review, cant wait to try one of these paddles out!

[@peytonmitchell382]

Great video! Really enjoy your paddle reviews and just started listening to the podcast!

[@meredithpriestley7872]

Sounds like an amazing combination! I can’t wait to try this!

[@aaronsegal1682]

Another cogently salient review…and agree 100% on the 14.3. Some of the best games I have played have been with this paddle. And my control is there in spades. Keep up the great work.

[@vananhvu4242]

Great review!! I love my ALW C 14.3 mm. Can’t wait to see how the ESQ plays !

[@BAMBAMPASTOR]

Thanks for reviewing this. You got me at standard shape, lol 😆. Love the SW and TW too, as well as the longer handle.

[@mphan999]

Wow! I would love to try out a potential paddle of the year. Sounds great!

[@taidai]

Enjoy your reviews and how you take in to consideration all levels of players into account

[@el_hosh]

New week new main! Let's see if it sticks!

[@gkillmaster]

Thanks for the great introduction to this paddle and for all the great reviews you do! I know I can trust your assessments!

[@barrybaugh2230]

Love the balance of this paddle!

[@sol1280]

Really intrigued by these. I wonder if these will make me actually like the shape. Thanks for the review.

[@CombativeFour13]

Great review! Really been loving standard shape paddles lately. Definitely interested in trying out the this one.

[@parksgarner3264]

I really liked the TKO-C, and I’m glad they have a standard shape out that has a bigger sweet spot and more maneuverable.

[@not.traffic]

Really looking forward to a powerful yet cushy feeling standard-shaped paddle. I'm going to enjoy the 14.3mm immensely as soon as I get my hands on it!

[@danielwilliams4747]

This sound amazing! Would love to try this one. Thank you for another fantastic review!

[@mikekirk4064]

This sounds like an amazing paddle. Cushy with pop and control . It looks like Paddletek has a winner with this paddle.

[@TheAkito86]

I want this to be my new main too! Well done Paddletek!

[@Charlie-t5h6f]

Great review. Hope to get to try this out soon. Currently using standard shape and quite enjoy the sweet spot and forgiveness.

[@patrickconners8044]

Played with both the 12.7 esq and alw and found the esq allowing me the additional control I’ve been looking for. Great job Paddeltek! PM Conners

[@jcrockification]

Played with my new 12.7 today and this thing is a monster. The love is 100% justified.

[@mrpapijoe]

Wow, this paddle really looks to be something special! awesome review!

[@aznflamel3oy]

Love to hear the long dwell time. I've been looking for some good paddles squishy paddles 😂

[@wyldelee17]

Definitely want to try this paddle. I play with the Alw-c short handle so I am looking forward to it.

[@echotango-az]

[@jline27]

I'm on the fence about which one to try but think the 14.3 sounds about right per your review. Great job as always!!

[@robertwilson7500]

Amazing review! nice to see a good review in 5 min

[@fabioconceicao3315]

Great review Louis! You got my attention on this paddle. I wish there was a store near me where I could test this paddle. Will Paddletek release a hybrid shape of the Bantam series? Can’t wait for the next review and podcast!

[@asil-z8l]

Paddletek was my first paddle and would like to try their latest technology. Thanks for the review.

[@D3p1xel8]

Everybody's gonna be hyped about this paddle after this review. Good work, brother.

[@alp.2330]

Wow this sounds like an amazing paddle!! Thanks for the great review!

[@Dangersturdy]

[@ernest4483]

Another great content and review Louis thank you for the recommendation I purchased the the ESQ-C 14.3mm the Aurora colorway and used your discount code

[@georgebrewster7861]

Nice review and after hearing it this paddle sounds like it would fit my style of play perfectly. Thanks for the reviews and keep them coming. 🏓

[@fe0g]

really really really want to try this out 14.3!

[@EricUnderwoodVideo]

I love the look of a red edge guard with a black carbon fiber face and white grip.

[@allenli8936]

Wow, that's a big change from control paddles to a power paddle as a new main. Congrats on being less trashy! I'm still too trash for power paddles, but this looks like a fun paddle and is hard to not want to main with 😂

[@Aurelia45-k3b]

Most impressed by the fact you kept a main for longer than a week. Definitely out of my budget, but here’s hoping for the giveaway

[@DianSusiana98]

Awesome review. It feels like a power monster. Really want to try ESQ-C 14.3mm.

[@hruntingson]

Paddle of the year already? Happy New year!

[@dfisherdds]

Would love to try the 14.3 ESQ-C. Nice review!
