    Can’t wait to try this out.. love the J2K but the softer touch and more spin should be a welcome added bonus

    New to the pickleball scene. I’ve been playing for a couple of months now and I’ve been doing a lot of research on paddles, looking for the right fit. The J2TI looks like a great paddle and has one of the best specs I’ve seen so far. Can’t wait to give this paddle a try!!!

    Great review! I just started playing pickleball in May and I am ADDICTED! I’m looking at upgrading my starter paddle to the J2KTi! I have this video on repeat! I’m just soo excited to elevate my game and play with this paddle! I’m looking forward to trying out the new “titanium” face and to see how this paddle will feel when hitting the ball. Thanks for sharing!

    I’m obsessed with Honolulu Pickleball Company paddles! They make amazing premium paddles at a great value price point and they just perform so well! I really want to try this paddle because I love control oriented paddles especially when they deliver in this spin department, and a lot of people I play with regularly are obsessed with spin. For those reasons, I’d love to get my hands the J2Ti! Also, great job on your channel and reviews, you’re really putting out some great content with your reviews!

    Love your AUTHENTIC no nonsense reviews! This new face material in hybrid shape sounds like a winning combo - hoping to win one! I think the multimaterial layups are the future of design (along with foam core variations). How would you compare J2Ti to the Shapeshifter which is also hybrid multimaterial that you gave a great review? Thanks!

    • @AllDriveNoDropPickleball
      @AllDriveNoDropPickleball  3 місяці тому

    Amazing review! I'm new to pickleball and have been looking to finally make the leap to get my first performance paddle, and this paddle seems to be the best of everything i've been looking for. What interests and excites me most about the j2TI is that it appears to me to be the king of all-court paddles. when i was doing my research i kept vacillating between going with a control paddle to assist in my short game (where im not as skilled) and going for a power paddle to boost my strong drives(which is where i win most of my points), but I realized that the best decision would likely be to try to shoot for the middle, and i think that the j2TI represents the best paddle in that middle ground of paddle types. (plus bonus points for being a hybrid, which is my favorite paddle shape lol)

    • @AllDriveNoDropPickleball
      @AllDriveNoDropPickleball  2 місяці тому +1

    @micy9614 3 місяці тому

    Great video appreciate the explanation of what claims to be titanium, its definitely interesting to know what it really is! I really like the new colour scheme compared to the J2K, I think the one that you have is the blue version and the yellow one is more like real titanium colour. Gutted that I bought the J2K literally before this Ti version came out, this would have suited me even more with how much control you get with the Ti version. Thank you so much for the give away and whoever wins it please enjoy this awesome paddle!

  • @rogerfernandez4839
    @rogerfernandez4839 3 місяці тому

    Love the idea of the softer feel and dwell on the Ti, and I always custom weight my paddle, so adding the weight to bump up the power is right up my alley. Would love to try this out as I've heard so many good this about the J2 series, but have only been able to play with the regular J2.

  • @grantjew7261

    Im interested in how this paddle feels compared to the j2k. The more plush feeling definitely intrigues me. I just got the Olympus so it sounds like we have similar preferences when it comes to paddles, looking forward to adding weight and messing around with that setup as well. Oh, I also noticed your instructions for the giveaway said comment what you like about the j2k 14mm, not a big deal but might want to update that when you get a chance. As always thanks for the excellent review and keep up the good work!

    I've been using the Honolulu J2K 14mm paddle for a few months now and I'm loving it! It's got a great balance of power and control, and the sweet spot is huge. The 14mm thickness gives it a nice firm feel, but it's still easy to maneuver. Definitely recommend it for intermediate to advanced players.
