Make sure to use code STS10 for the titanium paddles specifically on the Honolulu Pickleball website. It’s my code specifically for their titanium lineup. You can use code STSPICKLEBALL for any other paddles in the space 😊 just wanted to share this so there is no confusion!

Interesting to hear your take on the J2Ti compared to the J2K. Most other reviewers seem to think the J2K has more pop and power whereas you say the J2Ti does. I just ordered the J2Ti.

[vhomayoon]

You were spot on with your Mach 2 Forza review and its been my daily driver for the past year. I went ahead and pre-ordered the J2ti with your code! My only concern is the -100 in the spin rating, but I am hoping the added pop and plushness will make up for it!

[hecizzy]

I use a ruby. If I switch to this how would you compare that switch as far as pop, power, sweet spot is concerned ?

[lescobar]

I checked out the glasses that you were recommending, I'm wondering if you have checked out the Brioti Pickleball Glasses and if you have what are your thoughts on them?

Im in a bit of a pickle already. I purchased a j2k a few months ago but wasnt crazy about the paddle as i felt i needed more pop. My paddle before was elongated and im a singles player so i went ahead and ordered the J7k Pro. Played really well with j7k pro. As time went on i purchased some tungsten tape and put a strip covering the complete top of my j2k. now im blowing people away with the j2k, however before a game i have a really tough time choosing which fricken paddle to use now.

Question. Is the surface feel more of a weave/flatter feel compared to how the shogun titanium surface feels? Or do they feel the exact same

[Exploitiv]

I love my J2K it’s got that pop and spin even after 5 months of heavy use. Way more than my Ben Johns Hyperion which is now a back up/ loaner paddle. The 2nd gen Hyperion started losing its spin and control after about 3 months

Love the content! I just pre-ordered this paddle using your code, and I just had a few questions about the paddle itself. I was wondering if you have tested the J2Ti with any lead tape and how it feels? I also wanna know how to clean this paddle after every use since I've never bought a paddle with this material (I'm used to using an eraser for my carbon fiber paddles).

[chrisdeselm]

Love the vids! I’m very curious about this but just upgraded from the Vatic Prism Flash to the Neonic Flow. I really want plush but want to slowly upgrade power. I’ve heard the J2TI has a “plusher” feel but how plush does it feel compared to my other two?

[maximusstrength]

PRE-ORDERED! Like you said my J2K is getting quite used time for the next material after Kevlar and Carbon!

[kimleith]

Looks like the same weave as my NEXUS. Great spin is my favorite feature.

Another great content and review Steven, how's your playing experience with the J2Ti? Any review with the Six Zero DBD elongated 15mm down the road

[ralphtommaso]

I've been playing with the Honolulu J2K (thanks for your recommendation) for the last 3 months. For my game, significantly better than the Ballr Heat. More control, spin, easier to dink, with less fear of popping too high at the net. Would you recommend me upgrading to the J2Ti or the Mach 2 Forza 16mm?

[ericbooya]

Awesome review. Do you enjoy playing with the J3K Pro more or less than the J2Ti? Any update to releasing a vid on your Titan drills / QR codes?

[danmorton]

Thanks for the review! Your reviews are always money! I'm debating between this one and the Pickln Alteco3. I've heard good things about that one too. Have you had any experience with it?

[wizkashifa]

I’ve been using a Friday Challenger after their misprint discount and would love to understand how it stacks up to this or other paddles, but it seems most reviewers haven’t gotten specific metrics on it.

[tlasaracina]

I love your content, thank you. I bought a Onix React a few years ago when i started playing.
My problem is while im ready to upgrade there are so many options im really overwhelmed.
I spin the ball pretty well with the Onix and the power is fine.

My goal is even more spin from a new paddle.
There aren't any stores in my area so any purchase will be online.
After watching one of your videos i thougt tge BALLR would be the one but now this one
Seems like a winner.
Thanks in advance for any advice. 200.00 is my spending limit

great summary of the J2ti. I was wondering if you think this surface will be longer lasting than Kevlar and Carbon fibre faces? Plus would you have to clean the face with an eraser like carbon fibre faces? Lastly how would you compare this paddle to the 6.0 dbd 16mm?

[mr.mr.]

The problem I have with Titanium is the price. Seems like they should cost somewhere between carbon fiber and Kevlar. I think the Titanium name allows for a higher asking price.
