Like the longer handle

Observations after four months:I have three other paddles, weighing 7.6, 8.0 and 8.6 ounces. At 7 ounces, this is my lightest and quietest. It's polypropylene core is quieter than my others' aluminum cores (which I like and have no problems with) and the design's graphite face has more texture for control and slicing than the fiberglass faces of my other paddles (which I like and have no problems with). So far, very durable. I've seen other graphite paddles break.I think the teardrop shape forces me, psychologically, at least, to concentrate my hits at the head of the paddle. My red on black logo is less garish. I don't know if that's an old or new design. I prefer a simple designI've seen no loss of speed and power with slams. I have more accuracy with power shots and increased touch in no-volley-zone play - even more than my next lightest paddle. I'm sure part of this is getting used to the paddle. I've played for 1.5 years.I hesitated to spend $100, but playing 3-4 times a week makes this worth it. My game is better, and I'm keeping the body in shape.

Got this to battle at the net. I can easily whip this paddle for fast play. Feels like I get enough power deep and on the serve while getting cut shots and top spin when needed. After a few month, the paddle surface seems to have a few worn/smooth spots but it’s probably normal wear.

I have the Onix Signature paddle which is great but wearing out. Onix doesn't make it any more and sugfeted the Evoke. This Evoke paddle did not meet my expectations at all. First of all, it looked like a second. There are noticeable flaws or inconsistency's the face of the paddle. It is way too light, for even the smallest player who used it. And, there is no pop whatsuever from the graphite surface. Nobody in our club liked it or would buy it. Sorry, but I cannot give highter than a rating of 1.Note: I've been an Onix fan but no longer. The company was purchased by a multi product sports company and customer service is nothing like before. Would not even put a new edge guard on my Signature paddle.
