I started with the Filth elongated, then I upgraded to the Shogun. This paddle had plenty of power and tons of spin capability. With the new foam core technology, I was happy to see bread and butter develop their own version. I am now totally content with the B&B Loco. This paddle has everything, lots of spin and plenty of power. Not sure what the future holds for paddle technology, but I know that B&B will be at the forefront. One happy customer.
