Last updated: October 2026
$101.15 or $179 with code PRH. A quick control hybrid, or a foam attacker.
Buy the Bread & Butter Loco if the budget stretches to $179 with code PRH (10% off $199): it rated higher than the Glider in our testing on power, pop, control and forgiveness, its dual-foam core gives real pop, and it is steadier on off-center hits (6.8 twist weight against 6.4). Buy the Luzz Glider 2026 at $101.15 with code PRH (15% off $119) if you want the quicker paddle for less: a 108 swing weight against 114, more spin (about 2,295 RPM against 2,170), and a softer, control-first face. That is $77.85 less.

Buy the Loco if you finish points
The Loco is one of the clearest attacker paddles we have tested. Drives snap off the face, speed-ups and counters have short-dwell pop, and the hybrid shape gives reach without an elongated swing weight. It also blocks well if you prep early. The trade: a lively face sends a floated block long.

Buy the Glider if you play the kitchen
The Glider 2026 is quicker in hand at 108 swing weight, spins more, and the ball comes off softer, so drops and resets are easier to aim. You generate the pace yourself. For $77.85 less, it is the pick if hand speed matters more than power.
