    J3K Pro looks not only interesting but potentially a really good value moving forward setting the standard for paddles and pricing per performance!

  • @alfredjorge2148
    @alfredjorge2148 18 днів тому +1

    J3K would be the ideal paddle for me ! Love the design and performance up
    To par.

  • @rothnaktoy44
    @rothnaktoy44 2 місяці тому +1

    with the tighter weave on the pro, means more pop so would likely go with the normal j3k

  • @khoile114
    @khoile114 2 місяці тому +1

    The j3k pro seems like the better paddle for me. I like to add weight to all my paddles so it won’t be too heavy with a nice sw and tw. Also the wide body give more room to hit without hitting frame

  • @lamchan60

    I would prefer the J3K paddlel. I currently use a Selkirk Luxx. I wanted a different paddle with a little more pop.

  • @PBjan777
    @PBjan777 2 місяці тому +1

    I used to play table tennis and I enjoy using my volair mach 2 forza. But this kevlar J3K pro looks nice. Might be an upgrade. Looks legit.

  • @waynekurtz660
    @waynekurtz660 2 місяці тому +1

    The pro on the J3k is getting a lot more love than the j2k pro version, which most people preferred the standard J2k over. It makes my purchase decision for the standard shape more confusing! I'm leaning towards the J3k pro over the standard because while the regular has more power, this can easily be achieved with the pro by adding weight to it.

  • @scottla1113
    @scottla1113 2 місяці тому +1

    If I were to get a standard shape paddle, I would consider the J3K because there's more wiggle room for weight customization. Thanks for the review!

  • @mwfielder
    @mwfielder 2 місяці тому +1

    leaning towards the j3k pro---I like to keep the quickness,. Hoping I don't need to add weight.

  • @christianspencer3949
    @christianspencer3949 2 місяці тому +1

    These look super cool. Since I don’t do much customization I’d want to go with the regular J3K!

  • @FreeManOnTheLand_24
    @FreeManOnTheLand_24 2 місяці тому +2

    Oh man, a standard-shape banger?? Sign me up for the Pro! Lower swing weight + more control, but still powerful; sounds like a win/win.

  • @ricksiu2840
    @ricksiu2840 2 місяці тому +1

    I love my J2K paddle but seem to miss the sweet spot a lot. I would love to try the J3K Pro for the slightly wider body and power.

  • @phutrinh2831
    @phutrinh2831 2 місяці тому +2

    Jk3 pro looks absolutely insane. It would be great to have a high performance paddle after using a 20 dollar Walmart paddle🤣. With the new release of this paddle, this seems like it hit everything a player would like.

  • @thomasle30
    @thomasle30 Місяць тому +1

    Great comparison to the Mach 2, would love to try this especially with the longer handle

  • @John-cs1cj
    @John-cs1cj 2 місяці тому +1

    Thanks for your review Mathew! That J3K Pro sounds right up my alley! I like the standard paddles. Playing with PIKKL Hurricane Pro now. I’ve added similar weight plus some at 12 o’clock since it’s lighter than this. Having the standard model stability plus more power from the J3K Pro would benefit my game for sure!

  • @Penshake
    @Penshake 2 місяці тому +1

    I just bought the J2K and love it! Would love to try the J3K Pro for a more aggressive style at the kitchen! That would allow me to play different styles against different players.

    • @MatthewKPickleball
      @MatthewKPickleball  2 місяці тому

      Yeah, that’s how I do things as well! I switch paddles depending on who I’m mixing in with.

  • @tomfowlerwrites919
    @tomfowlerwrites919 2 місяці тому +1

    I'd prefer the Pro because it seems easier to customize. My grip setup is pretty simple, but I definitely want room to add tungsten before the paddle gets too heavy.

  • @NyLaLv
    @NyLaLv 2 місяці тому +1

    Would love the J3K. Love my Apollo, but want a standard shape w more power. From your review, sounds like this would fit the bill!

  • @vincentszymborski359

  • @timothyngo933
    @timothyngo933 2 місяці тому +1

  • @alp.2330
    @alp.2330 2 місяці тому +1

    Thanks for another great review! I would prefer the J3K Pro due the lower weight and power weave.

  • @AlanChang1
    @AlanChang1 2 місяці тому +1

    I have been playing with my J2K Pro for more than a month and I'm happy with what pop it has given me. I haven't play with standard shape for a l ong time so I'm not sure how this will work for me but I think I'll like the 6 inch grip. I'll go with the J3K Pro here because it seems to give better control which is what I want. 😎

  • @SKe711
    @SKe711 2 місяці тому +1

  • @XBleach88X
    @XBleach88X 2 місяці тому +2

    Nice review again! Both are great choices, but if I had to choose it’d be the J3K Pro for me for that extra control.

  • @ap6232
    @ap6232 2 місяці тому +1

    I'd definitely go J3K pro. Love the look of the lower swing weight while still having solid power. I do wonder how it would be going from a pure control paddle (Prism Flash) to a pure power paddle.

  • @SFDSMusic
    @SFDSMusic Місяць тому +1

    Great reviews. Very useful and detailed information for me. I think I would like to try the J3K.

  • @D3p1xel8
    @D3p1xel8 Місяць тому +1

    A standard-shaped paddle with extra power is very appealing. I'm loving the thought of trying out extra pop with the 16mm feel of the Pro. The lower static/swing weight allows for weighted tape, so that's a plus, too.

  • @Woofperson
    @Woofperson 2 місяці тому +1

    Thanks for the thorough review. My understanding is the Pro versions are more highly recommended for J7K and J3K. The J2K is the only one where the non Pro version shines. At least that's what I learned

    • @MatthewKPickleball
      @MatthewKPickleball  2 місяці тому

      I def think it varies player to player! For me, I prefer the J3K Pro and then the non-pro J7K. The J7K Pro is more power than I need for my play style. And then my fave paddle right is the non-pro J2K, but I haven’t played with the Pro version yet.

  • @Newchiii
    @Newchiii 2 місяці тому +1

    I think I’d have to go Pro just to keep that SW low, that’s the advantage to a standard shape and with out that might as well play hybrid imo

  • @corbanward31
    @corbanward31 Місяць тому +1

    Might sound crazy coming from tennis and cheap elongated paddles but would love to try a high quality paddles built for control

  • @Aurelia45-k3b
    @Aurelia45-k3b 2 місяці тому +1

    Great video! I’d be interested in the standard J3K, partially because I’m just curious how a more heavy, hard hitting paddle will feel on the court

  • @ilzephyrli
    @ilzephyrli 2 місяці тому +1

    Would love the J3K Pro as I've been loving wide/standard bodies but have been wanting more pop. Prefer the Pro for the lighter weight.

  • @smp315

    J3K Pro seems like it would be an interesting contrast to my Mach 2 Forza 16mm. Appreciate this and your other videos!

    • @MatthewKPickleball
      @MatthewKPickleball  Місяць тому

      Thank you! And yes, the J3K Pro would be quite a bit different than the 16mm M2F!

  • @760Piper
    @760Piper 2 місяці тому +1

    That J3K pushes all the buttons. The knock on the wide bodies is the lack of power and pop. This one got it right.

  • @gseacat
    @gseacat 2 місяці тому +1

    I play with the J2K Pro and love it but the extra room on the handle for a two-handed backhand on the J3K Pro seems like a great option! I love the pop of the Pro versions.

  • @SteeperHornet52
    @SteeperHornet52 2 місяці тому +1

    Dang this paddle looks great lol, especially the sword and shield pro. I like the width, its thicker than my paddle and I bet it will give a lot more control. I haven't tried another of different ones but I might just have to get me one of these lol.

  • @sunilsidhwani4757
    @sunilsidhwani4757 2 місяці тому +1

    I'm feeling the Pro version because of the Kevlar composite offering more control and having that Pop at the Kitchen Line. All of this in tandem with the points you alluded to in the video.

  • @J-Wheeler-G
    @J-Wheeler-G Місяць тому +1

    I just started playing last Wednesday. Ordered the J2K for me and the J2 to gift it yo my brother. I want the J3K Pro, it will make a for a great birthday gift for my dad.

  • @htdinhusa
    @htdinhusa 2 місяці тому +1

  • @MichaelFargarson
    @MichaelFargarson 2 місяці тому +1

    Both of these sound like great paddles. I switched from standard shape paddles (GB CX14) a while back to hybrids to get a little extra power. I'm excited about these J3 paddles though and would love to tryout the J3K Pro based on your review.

  • @dteno
    @dteno 2 місяці тому +1

  • @sojiromifune
    @sojiromifune 2 місяці тому +1

    Great review. I want the J3K Pro because it seems to match my game better. My main paddle is the Volair Mach 2 Forza, and I'm looking for more power while still maintaining control. The J3K Pro seems to check all those boxes.

  • @kevtruong7607
    @kevtruong7607 2 місяці тому +1

    This video is G2G! Love your reviews. Have been looking to upgrade since my game has upped. Have looked at the J2K Pro as a potential, but seems like the J3K Pro is more my style. Thank you and help me help you!

  • @Prydesterr
    @Prydesterr 2 місяці тому +1

    Great review! Short and sweet. I have an Apollo and I love it but it's leaving me with more to desire in the power category. I went from an elongated shape to the Apollo and am loving the change! I would choose the J3K to get that extra power!

  • @SNL-ILM
    @SNL-ILM 2 місяці тому +1

    Good video. One thing - the Spartus Apollo is a standard shape with full Kevlar face that’s been in production for a few months. But there aren’t many paddles in this particular spec! My pref would be the J3K to see how a power widebody plays. Thanks for the good content.

  • @ErickL-gl7ps

    @BAMBAMPASTOR 2 місяці тому +1

    Thanks for reviewing them. I have an Apollo and am a fan of the lower SW. among the 2, I’m leaning more to the J3K Pro. Would love to see a comparison among these 2, the Apollo, the Fat Boy and the Ronbus R2 FX. Maybe add Tyra’s Hurricane Pro too.

  • @HookPB

  • @gao57009
    @gao57009 2 місяці тому +1

    I think I would prefer the J3K version (not the Pro) because of the better control. I don't think the loss of power would be significant. Weights ca n always be added if needed.

  • @user-jx1vp5ei4u
    @user-jx1vp5ei4u 2 місяці тому +1

    Great Review. Have been looking forward to hear more about these paddles from a wider review base. I've really been enjoying my Spartus Apollo, but the J3K sounds really good. I especially like the idea o the Pro version , so you can dial in your weight and feel for your style. J3KPRO!!!

  • @picklefever
    @picklefever 2 місяці тому +1

    J3KPro for me. I’m using a Crbn 2X w a crushed core and really like the power without swinging too hard. No control and too poppy. Like standard shapes and your review gives me the opinion of keeping same characteristics with more control and spin and keeping the weight down for better customizing.

  • @Itskjb813
    @Itskjb813 2 місяці тому +1

    Great review and I was curious how your grips always looked thicker than most. The Pro being lighter makes the most sense for my game here. Thanks!

    • @MatthewKPickleball
      @MatthewKPickleball  2 місяці тому

      Haha. Mystery solved! I’m pretty sure it makes doing whips easier with that grip set-up as well.
