Version · 12 optionsSword & Shield J2TiChange

The Honolulu Sword & Shield J2Ti is a hybrid paddle for power, spin and control in the improved Aero Hybrid Plus shape, which joins the power of an elongated paddle with the control of a standard one, with the largest sweet spot and without losing hand speed. It has an easy learning curve and a stable, forgiving design. The face mixes carbon fiber and electroplated PET fiber (so-called titanium), and the construction is thermocompression. It measures 16.2 in by 7.8 in and weighs 8.0 to 8.4 oz.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%59
Approval from players35%65

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.
