Electrum Pro 2 Review

Listed specs: 11mm core, 16 x 8 inch face, 5 1/4 inch handle, roughly 7.9-8.2 oz (mid-weight). Electrum sells Pro II versions with different faces and a lighter Stealth Series (about 7.3-7.5 oz), so make sure you are comparing the same model.

General Thoughts

I've been playing with the Electrum Pro 2 Pickleball Paddle for a few weeks now and I'm really impressed. It's a great paddle for any skill level, offering a great balance of power, control, and spin. The core is 11mm thick and the paddle is 16" long and 8" wide, making it a great size for a medium-weight paddle. The grip length is 5 1/4" and the grip circumference is 4 1/4". It's comfortable in my hand, and the grip is well-made and provides great control.

The paddle has a graphite face which gives it great power and control, and the full-cell polymer core adds to the paddle's performance, providing excellent ball control and spin. It's a great paddle for any kind of shot, from dinks to power shots. I've been able to place the ball where I want it, and I've gotten a lot of spin on my serves.

Overall, I'm very impressed with the performance of the Electrum Pro 2 Pickleball Paddle. It's a great paddle for players of any skill level and the balance of power, control, and spin make it an excellent choice. Highly recommended!

Paddle Design

The design of the Electrum Pro 2 Pickleball Paddle is sleek and stylish, with a modern look that sets it apart from other paddles. The paddle has a graphite face with a full-cell polymer core that provides great power and control. The core is 11mm thick and the paddle is 16" long and 8" wide, making it a great size for a medium-weight paddle. The grip length is 5 1/4" and the grip circumference is 4 1/4".

The paddle has a nice balance between power and control. The graphite face gives it great power, while the full-cell polymer core adds a layer of control and spin. The paddle has a large sweet spot, making it easy to place the ball where you want it. The mid-weight design allows for quick and easy maneuverability, which is great for both offensive and defensive play.

The paddle is mid-weight, so players who want extra power may want to add lead tape or choose something heavier.

Attacking Play

When playing with the Electrum Pro 2, I've been really impressed with its attacking capabilities. I can really feel the power behind my shots, and I'm able to generate a ton of spin. I feel confident in my groundstrokes, as I can place the ball exactly where I want it. The paddle also has great control, allowing me to make quick adjustments in the heat of the game.

The only downside to the attacking game with the Electrum Pro 2 is that it can feel a little light. I'm used to using a heavier paddle, and sometimes I feel like I'm not able to get enough power behind my shots. However, this is only a minor issue, as even with the lighter feel, I'm still able to generate plenty of spin.

Overall, I'm really happy with the Electrum Pro 2's performance when it comes to attacking play. Despite its mid-weight feel, it still provides plenty of power and control. The spin generation is great, and I'm able to attack the ball confidently and accurately. Highly recommended!

Control Play

Playing with the Electrum Pro 2 has been a truly enjoyable experience. Its full-cell polymer core gives me the power to generate shots with a lot of spin, which makes it easier to control.

I'm able to get the ball to where I want it to go and place it perfectly in my opponent's weakest area. It also has excellent touch, which allows me to make delicate shots with accuracy. I can even hit a drop shot right into the corner of the court with ease.

The only downside is that it's not the lightest paddle out there, so it can be a bit tiring when playing long rallies.

All in all, the Electrum Pro 2 is a great pickleball paddle for players who want the perfect balance of power and control.

Sum It Up

The Electrum Pro 2 Pickleball Paddle is a great choice for players looking for a balance of power and control. Its graphite face and full-cell polymer core provide great power and spin, while its mid-weight design allows for quick and easy maneuverability. The large sweet spot makes it easy to place the ball exactly where you want it, and its excellent touch allows for delicate shots with accuracy. Although it may be a bit too light for some players, the Electrum Pro 2 is an excellent paddle for those who want to take their game to the next level.
