Maverix Havik - 15 ProX
The Maverix Havik - 15 ProX sits on the lower end of what we would consider a modern power paddle in 2026. It is not as explosive or overpowering as something like the Havik 2, but it absolutely brings more pop and pace than a more control-oriented paddle. For reference, if we would rate the Havik 2 as a 9/10 power paddle, the Havik - 15 ProX would come in at 6.5/10 power and 5/10 control.
This makes the Havik - 15 ProX a great option for players who have been playing for more than 6 months and are ready for more offense, but do not want to jump all the way into a foam paddle that may feel too powerful or too difficult to control.
What makes the Havik - 15 ProX unique is the way it is built. This paddle is designed to remove weight from the head and redistribute it into the throat, which helps lower swing weight so the paddle feels faster through the air, while also increasing twist weight to make it feel more stable on contact. The result is a paddle that feels quick in the hand, easier to accelerate, and more solid through the ball.
The Havik shape also brings major benefits. By moving weight closer to the hand and optimizing the mass distribution, the paddle feels faster in hand battles while maintaining a stable, confidence-inspiring feel through contact. This gives players a paddle that is easier to accelerate, easier to whip through the zone, and more stable than many paddles in this category.
Because this paddle uses a fiberglass face, the face feels stiffer and produces more pop off the paddle. Compared to a full carbon fiber face, the response feels more lively and a little more explosive, which helps players generate easier power and speed on drives, counters, and put-aways. It gives the ProX a more energetic response while still remaining much more manageable than the hottest foam paddles on the market.
We especially recommend the Havik - 15 ProX for players who want to move into a paddle with more power, but are not looking for the extreme power profile of a foam paddle. It is a great middle-ground option for someone who wants a paddle that feels faster, poppier, and more aggressive, but still playable enough to trust throughout the court.
Make no mistake, this paddle is built to bring offense. It has noticeably more pop than a control paddle, and it is designed for players who want help generating pace. At the same time, it stops short of becoming overly wild or overly difficult to manage like some of the more extreme power paddles in today’s market.
The result is a paddle that feels modern, fast, stable, and offensively capable. It gives players access to more pop and power without forcing them into the full jump of a foam paddle.
Who it’s for:
Players who have been playing for 6+ months and want a paddle with more pop, more pace, and easier power, but do not want to move into a foam paddle that feels too powerful or too difficult to control.
