I have both the series 2 and series 3 paddles from Proton and they are really fun to use. I would love to have a series 1 B 11mm or 14 but they are currently unicorns in the paddle world.

Back ordered for months along with high swing weight numbers, if they could figure those two out they would dominate the market! Lifetime warranty on the surface and paddle, no one has that!

Not a fan of having to win on serve. So I can score points without serving the whole game and when I get to 24, I can’t? Makes no sense. I have to wait until my opponent catches up?
