Deing with a paddle shovel is a really complicated choice. Each player has their own level, style of play and specific tastes. And precisely for this reason it is totally essential to play with an adequate shovelthat adapts to our needs.
A premise that precisely marks the line of work of Lõk, the brand of new generations of the paddlewhich has focused on offering a wide range of options so that each can find their ideal paddle shovel.
Thus, from the little Padel and Mundo Deportivo We tested and analyze in depth the two main collections of Lõk: the Hype and Flow seriesa total of eight models with differentiated characteristics that offer a very varied performance.
The two collections of Lõk Palas, in detail
We will start focusing with the models of the gama Hype. It is a collection of four blades, all of them with a mold in diamond and balance form near the headinitially designed for a more offensive player profile, which likes to define the points.
However, the fact that they have different technical characteristicsalso causes them to offer very different performance on the track. These are the main dissimilarities:
- The Maxx Hype y la Carb-On Hypewith high density rubber and the use of tougher materials, are two models that offer great power, but that They require good technique.
- The Easy Hype And, above all, the Be Hypesofter than the knowledge, they are two blades a lot more manageable and easy to useideal for those who have a more intermediate level or who are even taking their first steps in the paddle.
This is how the shovels of the Hype collection look
On the other hand, The four blades of the Flow collection have a round shapebalancia more located near the handle and greater sweet point, which provides a lot More controlideal for those players or players who prefer a more comfortable and easy model.
But there are also outstanding differences between them:
- The LÕK Maxx Flowthe same used by the professional player Bea Caldera, and the Carb-On Flowcon tougher materialsThey require a somewhat higher level and a more refined technique.
- The Easy Flow and the Be Flowwith softer rubber and materials, They are the easiest blades to control the brandideal to improve if you have been playing the paddle for a short time.
So are the four blades of the Lõk Flow collection
But, despite the differences, there is a common characteristic in all of them. It is about asymmetric hearta very characteristic element of Lõk shovels, which has opted for this technological innovation to guarantee greater balance and stability In each blow.
Our track experience with Lõk's shovels
LõK Flow Collection:
Its round and wide sweet shape allow us to have great ability to control blows when we are defending Very sunk, near the glass. The truth is that there are four blades that transmit very good Sensitivity and touch in all kinds of blowswith the ability to directly direct the globe or other more complex shots such as the little girl.
In addition, it emphasizes that they are shovels that The ball fires very well, without the need to make a great effort To perform the coup, which makes it easier to have a greater sense of control. Above all, it happens in the case of the two softer models, the Easy and the Be Flow. Instead, Maxx and Carb-on Flow also allow us to accelerate the speed more of the ball, opting for a counterattack blow with more power.
We tested the Lõk Be Flow, the most manageable shovel in the collection
Finally, we were also surprised by his Lightness and manageability, which allows us to move them easily. This allows us to feel more comfortable in defense and be able to be more effective in rapid volley exchanges, being able to play with different ball rhythms thanks to its excellent touch.
Hype Collection:
With its characteristics, the Hype range blades offer a Very explosive performance near the networkespecially for those most aggressive profile players who like to attack the ball.
Especially, the LÕK Maxx Hype and the Carb-On Hype They are two hard blades that offer great benefits in terms of powerwith the ability to accelerate the pace of the ball and define with the auction, the viper or even volley. However, its Sweet point reduced and located near the head It makes it difficult to easily direct the ball, since it requires touching the ball at this optimal point. For this reason, we insist that these are two blades directed towards a Player with good technique.
Testing the Lõk Easy Hype in attack
The other two models of this series, Easy and Be HypeThey do not have the same explosiveness of the previous ones, but, instead, They allow us to control better The blow. That allows us to defend with more comfort and play more precision, be it balloons, volley or other blows that require maximum precision.
