Most paddles with grit paint don't keep the grit too long including the Diadem Warrior. What are your observations on this paddle's ability to hold the grit?
Very similar to the power air it’s going to depend on how much you hit the sweetspot all the time it will wear off faster. But most paddles they figure around 100 hours of play time.
Great review. Love this paddle

Only time will tell , paddles now a days consider 100 hours max play. So all of them breakdown juts depends on how many months of play.
I've used mine for 3 months about 80 hours of play and the surface looks brand new.
Awesome review, please pick one paddle six zero dbd 14mm, dbd 16 mm or diadem icon v2 and how would you compare them. Thanks
DBD 16 most control
DBD 14 and XL are neck and neck for power but edge goes to the xl with the spin going to the dbd
How long do you find the paddle to be 'gritty' before losing some of its spin??

How long will the grit paint last? Big red flag for me, usually only lasts for 15-20 play sessions….
They shoot for 100 hours!!
Is the icon xl tournament legal?
Yes
