JOOLA Infinity Overdrive - Professional Performance Ping Pong Paddle with Carbon Kevlar Technology - Black Rubber on Both Sides - Competition Table Tennis Racket for Advanced Training - Extreme Speed

I had some experience with table tennis long ago but I got the passion for tot back and this paddle is definitely the tool to get back on track and make you better. Only con was that one of the rubbers was coming off and then stick back, but now needs to be glued back, which is not that bad, but tells me about some quality control opportunities, it is normal. Overall definitely worth the purchase imho. BTW paddle is very speedy and spiny, will definitely make you learn the basic technics well. Also update after a few months of use. It is beat up now and I had to glue the rubber back which is normal kinda, but have to tell you the quality is well worth the price comparing to more expensive models from all best sellers on Amazon, it definitely feels expensive and screams quality to me, but rubber glue… might have just dried or something else. But this bat is pro level and well worth the money!

Plenty of power and spin.

The media could not be loaded. Strong:-Amazing Spin-Great counter attacker-Fast/Hard hitting speedsWeak:-Rubber shows wear. Edit: upon research, I found out that these rubbers are pre-stretched from factory giving a higher tension aka faster speed or hit when attacking or returning. This is normal and even professional understand that flaking on the edges means that you have achieved a stretch and lose no performance on the blade if flaking happens.-Just slightly heavier than most stiga blades (about 20-40 grams).Thoughts:(I am on the right of the video and I made sure to include my error to be as real as possible; sorry for the quality of video, I couldnt do anything about it).I am a beginner with no experience in ping pong, however I always loved the sport as a kid and my intentions of becoming the best at my local workplace lead me here. So how does it perform? I would say its a very strong 4-5 star depending on who you ask. It is slightly heavier than the Stiga $50+ blades, but holds up to $100 stiga pro carbons and Killerspins easily. I love this sport so much that I went ahead and spent $200 on a professional custom blade and jumping back to this blade, it really holds its value. For the price I paid for I am happy with it and I actually plan to upgrade the rubber now that I know more about ping pong. This blade will easily last you years if you take care of it. My advice is that if you already bought this blade, and are curious to see what it feels like to have a custom professional blade, all you have to do is purchase DHS Hurricane Neo 3 or Nittaku Fastarc G1 rubber and you will feel the difference. You will easily rival many. Also fun fact, some professional in the top 100 still use $40 blades and just change the rubber. I hope this helps and please rate to help others 😊

Good P-P paddle for high intensity play. I have used for 2 wweks now and love it

I have recently purchased a ping pong table and a few table tennis paddles and balls. Out of all, I loved the JOOLA paddle. It has good spin and speed. If you are a beginner, then this paddle is not for you. You can only control the speed of the ball if you have already played before. I loved it for this price range.

This paddle is unbeatable for the price. I’m not an expert at table tennis but I can tell it’s head and shoulders above paddles I’ve tried in this price range. It’s got a great feeling in the hand, great spin and power from it! Clearly high quality too. I’ve bought several of them already.

This review has been updated: The first one I received (Joola Infinity Overdrive ) had a crack on both sides of the blade. I noticed this when I replaced the rubber. I was very disappointed and contacted Joola. I sent them some photos and they quickly acknowledged it was cracked. They sent me a new one right away!!! I really like this racket!!! Rubber is better than that on my my premade Stiga pro carbon. And the rubber on this Joola, in contrast to the Stiga pro carbon, is easily replaceable -not made with a mess of glue like most premade paddles are constructed. Based on my, albeit limited, experience, the Joola premade paddles are the best out there, especially if you are beginner-intermediate looking to continue to improve your game. And the easily removable rubber allows you to experiment with other rubbers. Good going Joola!

I like this paddle. The only con i have for this is the weight. It is a heavy paddle compared to my killerspin. That being said it has some thick foam that will make hitting fast shots way easier to handle. It is a great paddle for the price, and it may make you have forearms the size of popeye after a year of using it. It is not a spin heavy type of paddle, you have to work more for that spin.
