Overview
The Volair Mach 2 Forza 16mm offers some of the best spin in the game, one of the widest sweet spots in the game, and is my pick for best resets in the game. It has average power for a thermoformed paddle and very low pop making it great at control but still able to have finishing power. This paddle is for someone who wants a great control paddle with elite spin and is ok sacrificing the reach that comes with a wide-body paddle.

Our Review
Control
It is interesting how the 14mm and 16mm Mach 2 Forzas perform differently, but I love the contrasting styles the two paddles offer. The Mach 2 Forza 16mm is the ultimate control machine, and if you want to lock down your control game with resets and blocks, this is my top recommendation for those categories.
Spin
The amount of control you get with this paddle, combined with the elite spin, is special. The high twist weight plays true to form and you will not have a problem blocking drives and resetting with this paddle. The sweet spot is wide and it stays stable in your hands under the highest speeds.
I’ve recommended this paddle to many people who struggle with their soft game, with the primary issues being dinking and resetting. It has helped them tremendously as this is one of the more forgiving paddle you can get right now.
If working your way through the transition zone and popping up the ball are some of your bigger problems this is a great paddle to help address those issues.
Power/Pop
The power is average so if you can supply your own this won’t be an issue. Placing your drives, dinks, serves, rolls and speedups is a breeze with this paddle. The pop is the one area you will lack a little but it can be made up for with the low swing weight, huge sweet spot, stability and great spin the MF2 16mm offers.
