The Engage X2 Elongated marks Engage's entry into foam paddles: the 16 mm core is four-density foam, with a 100% foam architecture, covered by a micro-woven carbon fiber surface. It measures 16.5 x 7.5 inches, weighs 7.8 to 8.2 oz and has a 5.5-inch handle with a 4 1/4 grip. The foam gives a more solid, consistent feel than honeycomb, with accessible power and good spin. It is approved by USA Pickleball and UPA-A and passed the PBCoR 0.43 test.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%63
Approval from players35%66

The RR Score is not yet a precise figure. It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.
