My 2 cents worth...
I love the shape and feel of this paddle. The balance is definitely towards the head, giving it lots of snap on ground strokes. The sweet spot is huge, and of course the LX control and pop is amazing. This is my choice when playing indoors with a soft ball. MG
Ascend LX
The Ascend shape is designed especially for players coming from tennis or racquetball backgrounds who prefer an aerodynamic paddle with rapid movement and manipulation for adding more spin. Players who like to use a two-handed backhand will appreciate the extra handle length. It is also ideal as a singles paddle where power and speed are crucial. The Ascend LX is made with our honeycomb polymer Luxe Core™ for added control and finesse.

the longer handle makes this an attractive option if you are sold on two-handed backhands. Balance is towards the head of the paddle face, and the rounded face gives a large sweet spot. Lots of pop and control. MG
Oculus LX
Around we go. The Oculus LX shape is inspired by the structure of a tennis racquet. It has a pleasing lateral weight balance with a larger sweet spot and less drag than traditional rectangular paddles. It is made with the honeycomb polymer TMPR Luxe Core™ which cushions your blows, increasing both consistency and control.

note the rounded shape paddle, which you might find easier to adapt to if you are coming from tennis or ping pong. Balance is more towards the handle than the other series', and the rounded shape provides a huge sweet spot. Lots of pop and control. MG
Rave LX
The Rave LX is the elongated paddle shape in the TMPR lineup. It is ideal for the player who wants extra reach in a paddle. The rounded sides give the Rave LX a more balanced feel and less drag than other elongated paddles. The Luxe Core™ cushions your shots, increasing both consistency and control.

Primarily for singles players, or if you just want a bit more reach. Be aware that the sweet spot on elongated paddles is a little smaller than wider paddles, so you might need to be proficient at hitting the sweet spot. Lots of pop and control. MG
