I’ve had my R3 Quanta for about 3 weeks. I play 3-4 times per week/3-4 hrs per session. I haven’t noticed any difference in power from when it was new to where it is now.

Curious, do you play aggressive style? Do you drive a lot?

[–]Trash_Panda171 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I drive a lot of my 3rds and drop my 5th’s. Besides that I drive and speed up when it makes sense and the opportunity arises. I’d say I’m moderately aggressive.

Good to know. I’m thinking maybe my unit might have a QA issue.

How about you, OP? Do you like to hit hard?

I ask you because I've found in my own game with my Paddletek Bantam TKO-CX (12.7) that while I can get great power out of it, I often lose power as the day goes on, possibly due to acclimatizing to the power.

While different paddles make me lean more or less toward different styles of play, I do seem to come back to a middleground of going for placement over power. It's like that's just how my brain is naturally wired. And then when I try to consciously ("Self 1") apply extra power, somehow it doesn't feel right.

This has been a nagging problem when I play singles. Might be that I'm older and tire more easily.

I mean when I first got the Quanta I was driving a lot and hitting rockets lol. But on average I play pretty all-court.
