Brilliantly Ticks All The Boxes
KC1 is really incredible paddle. It starts off as a bit of a puzzle, in a very good way. There is soft touch and there is power that you can easily unlock. Out of the box it is super plush, needless to mention it provides greater control in soft game, adding higher accuracy to my dinks. But where it really shines is how easy it is to manoeuvre. The incredible low swing weight is a delight at NVZ, but it comes into its own when I'm caught in the transition zone. I have been able to add reset from no transition zone into my game, mostly due to incredible touch of KC1. It has decent amount of power, but the manoeuvrability is so good that I have been focussing on my touches and placement and growing my game. It's a bit like good fancy dining experience at fine Restaurant...lot of finesse has been 'cooked in' by the Standout team that creates sublime in hand feel and magnificent playing experience.

Best Kevlar Paddle
As a huge fan and user of Six Zero Ruby, I was so skeptical when I heard the people around me telling me this is a better version. Now I know why, the paddle is extremely light and manoeuvrable. I appreciate that I can add lead according to my preferences this way. The sweet spot is crazy big, almost the whole paddle I would say. The control and feel is like no other, super plush yet still having enough power.

This Is A "Standout" Paddle
This paddle replaced my Selkirk LUXX Invikta paddle. The KC1 is a step up. Still elongated shape but with exceptional maneuverability at the net and a far more solid / plush feel and stability on hard blocks (doesn't feel hollow). Power is there when you call on it.

BEST KEVLAR IN THE MARKET!
I switched from the Ruby, this paddle it is a 10 out of 10!
Control, spin, and power all in one!

Pro Paddle Amazing Price
This paddle is so unbelievably consistent, what I mean when I say that is the enormous sweet spot (almost the entire face), but also the ball response no matter where you hit it and no matter how hard or soft. The ball will always react the same. Power when you need it, aswell as control out the wazoo!! This is my daily driver and I’ve tried hundreds of paddles!

I’ve found ‘the one’!
So happy I purchased the KC1 paddle! I've been really impressed with the control, stability and spin of the paddle - I think I've found 'the one'!Mark F
It Checks All the Boxes!
Received the KC1 yesterday. Background: I am a solid intermediate Senior who relies more on control and spin than power although I enjoy some power from the baseline. As soon as I picked up the KC1 and put it in my hand "it felt right". Loved the way the handle and the grip felt - tacky but not overly so and a great fit in my hand. Initial swings back and forth felt quick. Luckily I had the chance to put in 2 hours of open play. During the first 5 minutes it all came together quickly. It was soft when I needed it to be and firm when I needed it to be. Sounds contradictory but I don't know how else to put it. The speed at the kitchen was there and volleys felt solid albeit not super powerful. With a little flick of the rest I was able to generate decent pace but more importantly placement was almost 100%! Without asking, people were complimenting me on "spin". Took me a bit of time to dial in the serve but it was easy to hit deep with spin. Still working out the power but overall my first impression is that this is a great find and I would recommend it. I would love to pick up a CF3 one day and compare them side by side but until then if you got far enough to read this, give it a shot!

Joola gen3 replacement
Just got the KC1 as my Joola Gen 3 replacement and really, really like it. While it doesn’t match for power(who does) it is better for control aim dwell time and hand speed. The twist rate is a lot better too. Overall, a really great quality paddle the surpasses the Ruby.

Move over Ruby
I really like this paddle. The reduced honeycomb size definitely gives this paddle a solid, controlled feel. I like the innovative use of materials and the pinstriped kevlar and carbon face definitely provides exceptional spin. The Kevlar helps even out the hard and soft shot differences, allowing you to keep good control on the big shots and also maintain good touch on the dink game. The paddle itself is a great look with the striped dark face and white edging. I also like that it’s an edgeless paddle. Overall, it’s a great offering that I think plays similar to, but better than the 6.0 Ruby.
Rob Cassidy
A super special paddle
This paddle plays so nice straight away! It just feels good! I just felt connected straight away. Like I had been using it for a long time. I feel great control when i'm dinking & when I need to reset or drop from the back of the court. It has a really nice feel. It's so fast at the kitchen as well with the edgeless aero design. I feel I'm winning a lot more fire fights with the increased speed of the paddle. This is a super special paddle! Highly recommended!!

A gem
I usually go for big brands like many others do. Until I heard many in my club raving about this paddle. I tried my friend’s and wow I was impressed. Immediately got one for myself and safe to say, it’s better than the paddles from the big names.
