Mach 2 Forza Pickleball Paddle

This paddle is incredible. I had literally zero trouble adjusting to it in my first session, which to me is the mark of a truly great paddle - it felt like I had already been playing with it for months after just one game.

What's funny is that paddle reviewers like PB Studio describe the Mach 2 Forza as the ultimate pillow-y control paddle, but I actually disagree. The control and resets are amazing for sure, but it also has way more pop and finishing power than similar control paddles I have like the Hurricane Pro and Fat Boy.

Light, maneuverable, spinny, a control player's dream but with just enough oomph to counter hard and finish points. Can't wait to buy a second one!

I’ve played with many paddles, including several power-focused models that are a lot of fun, but this Volair mach 2 truly stands out. The sweet spot is exceptional, and the level of control is outstanding. It has allowed me to access shots and touch in my game that I didn’t even realize I had. If control and consistency matter to you, this paddle delivers at a very high level.

Great widebodies. First WB s for me and love them. If I'm trying to describe the difference the 1 seems poppier but the 2 has more dwell. If I were you I'd give both a try. My name is Chris and number is [****]. Don't think the tech is a few years old. Think what each does for you. Both are excellent in the kitchen for dinking and I've literally never popped one up since I got the paddles.

I've purchased six Mach 2 14mm's directly from Volair. I had a concern about the latest two paddles (same BOGO order) that I hadn't previously experienced. After clarifying the situation to Jeff with customer service, Volair remedied the situation to my full satisfaction. I remain loyal to not only this paddle, but also the brand.

I bought my 16mm Forza Mach 2 when I saw two friends adore their Forza Mach 1s. After three months with mine ... simply awesome. Great control, spin, and plenty of pop for drives. The long handle feels comfortable in my large hands, particularly for the twoey. I am a 4.7 DUPR and have tried a lot of paddles for my defensive/all-around play style. The Forza 2 is the best I have found. I would take this over the latest $280 Joola or Selkirk any day. My favorite aspect is the durability. The Toray T700 face is supple, with superb touch, but it has worn like a champ. I have not found that in any other premium brand. I play 4 times a week and hit fairly hard. Three months in no core crush, no debonding, and the carbon still feels spinny and looks nearly new. I recently cleaned it with a paddle eraser, and my buddy thought I had bought a new paddle LOL! I have ordered a 14mm Forza Mach 2 for my next paddle. Bravo, Volair. You have crafted a masterpiece.

This is my third Mach 2 Forza 16mm and it is simply a spectacular paddle. Power, control and spin always in play and never compromised. As a competitive player, I win win Volair at my side. Whether in South West Florida or Canada, I know what to expect every game, a highly geared performance paddle!

I can't seem to move away from this paddle, drives and resets are just a lot smoother playing with this paddle. I have played with the Mod ta, Perseus IV and Honolulu j2k. However I keep switching back to the trust M2F

I would 100% buy this paddle again, this is truly the best wide body control paddle. Reviews don’t do this paddle any justice until it’s in your hand. Before I played, I put an over grip and edge guard and instantly fell in love with the performance. So grateful for the BOGO promotion because I was able to justify spending $180 on a paddle to my Wife (even though she doesn’t play…hahaha). Thank you Volair!

I love my new paddle! It has incredible touch that I have not felt on any other paddle. Also excellent control, spin, and good power. I was not looking for a pure power paddle- I generate enough power on my own. I am now making my Selkirk my backup paddle. I have had three friends try this paddle and they loved it also- one ordered a new one the same day.

This paddle has great touch. I feel so in control during dinking and the wide body helps for my off center hits. Not a lot of power like I use in my normal gameplay but I can generate lots of spin!

Bonus - Volair is an awesome company. First paddle went missing and the tracking never updated. Simple email into customer service and they ordered another paddle and sent it over.

Overall, very impressed with Volair!

I had this paddle less than a year. Used 1-2 times an month and switched to a different paddle. I recently noticed BOTH sides of the paddle was warping and clearly a defect. Contacted customer service and they only have a 180 day (that’s it!?) warranty! Basically got a sorry and 30% off code. Pass. This is the last time I will buy or recommend a Volair paddle.

Wow! What a paddle! The control is better than any paddle I have played with. The grit is great and I am spinning the ball without even trying. Cannot wait to actually learn how to put spin on the ball with this paddle. Love the longer handle for 2 handed backhands. The packaging is top notch. Delivery came incredibly quick. Customer service when I had a question was prompt.My husband got the Mach 2 Forza Original Blue 16mm and feels the same. We played in our first tournament with our Volair Mach 2’s and took silver. Do not hesitate to purchase this paddle!

Being an intermediate level pickleball player, I was interested in taking my game up a notch by purchasing a better paddle. Having a ping pong and tennis background, I use a lot of topspin in my game. Well, this paddle does not disappoint - I'm able to put mad topspin on serves and on mid-level drives from the kitchen which often causes my opponents to whiff at the ball. I felt I needed a little more drive so I added a couple weights to the paddle, which gives it more pop from the kitchen line. All-in-all, this paddle matches my style of play perfectly and my game has noticeably improved since I began using the paddle. I also love the cleaning puck that came with the package. I will definitely recommend this paddle to others who are looking for an upgrade.

More pop and power than I was expecting because of other reviews, and I love the control and spin! I also had a few questions and the support team was very responsive!

I recently received the 16 mm Mach 2 paddle and had an initial issue, but Jeff was incredibly generous in resolving it—outstanding customer service! The paddle came in extremely professional packaging, and I'm very impressed with its quality. I also added 3g of Tungsten tape to the bottom left and right sides, as suggested by some reviewers, which further enhanced the paddle's already great stability and sweet spot. Overall, a fantastic product with excellent support!

I’m coming from an Engage Pursuit EX 6.0 which I liked. My new Mach 2 Forza 16 mm gives me more pop and I can feel more dwell time…more accuracy. More spin. More stable on off-center hits. I’m a 3.5 player.
I wanted a bit more control and a bit more power and this paddle delivered both. I’m a very active 71 year-old. 6‘4“ 195 pounds.

I got the Mach2 Forza and it really lives up to the hype! it was very stable and had lots of spin. I decided to get the 14mm for more pop and it feels very controllable than other thinner paddles I've used before. An amazing paddle!

The longer handle is a really nice feature. The spin is great. It came Nicely packaged with lots of extras that you don’t see with other paddles. The grip seems really nice but I put an overgrip on.
