The CTRL 1 is everything I love about the Mach 1 but with more ability to shape my shots and more pop when I need it at the kitchen. Love the feel off the face on this one, awesome paddle.
The paddle is very light and very fast. Great for hand battles at the kitchen. But it lacks the power and spin of the Forza. The Forza is a superior paddle for my play.
Thank you for sharing your feedback! We're glad to hear you enjoy the light weight and speed of the paddle, especially for quick exchanges at the kitchen. Every player has their own style and preferences, and we understand that power and spin are key factors for many. If you're looking for something closer to the Forza in performance, we'd be happy to help you find the right fit. Let us know if you have any questions—we appreciate your support!
The CTRL 1 Forza Pickleball Paddle is a fantastic choice for players looking for precision and consistency. Its lightweight design and large sweet spot make it perfect for controlled shots, while still delivering impressive power when needed. The grip feels comfortable and secure, even during long matches.
Highly recommend for intermediate and advanced players aiming to improve their game!
Also with the green color people will going to notice you for sure.
Keep up the great work Volair, and thank you for all the awesome paddles.

This paddle is fantastic. It has amazing control and great feel. It also has super spin abilities. I would highly recommend it for advanced players who want more control and precise ball placement. This is the best paddle I have ever played with.

I am a 6'2", 270#, 77 years old male. I have been playing Pickleball for 7 year's. For the last six months the Volair Mach 1 Forza has been my paddle. 2 weeks ago my new Controll 1 Forza (8th paddle) arrived.
I love the Mach 1 Forza, but due to declining mobility I thought more control would benefit me. So for this has proven to be correct.
So here is my review:
1 Quality - Excellent.
2 Feel - Light, Maneuverable, Balanced
3 Power - Not as much as the Mach 1 Forza but plenty.
4 Spin - Not as much as the Mach 1 Forza but plenty. Still generate planty of top
spin on groundies and serves, plus my slices are still as penetrating.
5 Popiness - Less than the Mach 1 Forza. This really helps me with the dinking
game, drops, resets, speedups & lobs.
Basically, control allows me to move my opponents arround so that I have an easier time getting in position to execute my shots. As I'm getting comfortable with the KTRL1 Forza I can see that its playability will help me to continue enjoying this great game.
Thank you Volaire
