On-Court Feel

The Loco 2 Hybrid is built on the same foam platform as the original Loco: an EPP center with an EVA perimeter, a fiberglass layer for pop and a T700 raw carbon face. That core is why the first Loco sold the way it did. It hits hard on drives and speed-ups, then stays calm enough to reset from the kitchen.

The numbers point to a quicker paddle than the original. Swing weight drops from 114 to 111, so hands battles and counters come around sooner, while a 6.7 twist weight keeps off-center blocks on line. At 16.2" x 7.6" it sits between a widebody and an elongated: enough reach to drive, enough face to defend.

The new part is the face. Space Dust grit is Bread & Butter's durable texture, made to keep its bite for a season instead of smoothing out after a few weeks. For a paddle that already had the power, that is the upgrade that matters.

Performance & Testing

The Bread & Butter Loco 2 Hybrid went through our standard on-court protocol - drills, rec play, and at least one tournament match. How it plays reflects consensus feedback from the group, not a single reviewer's opinion.

Grit & Durability

Durability is the headline change. The original Loco used a standard raw carbon texture that smoothed at an average rate. The Loco 2 moves to Space Dust grit, built to hold spin far longer, with graphics UV printed directly onto the surface so there is no film layer to wear through. Dual certification (USAP and UPA-A) means it is legal in both major tournament systems.

Who It's For

Doubles and all-court players who attack: third-ball drives, speed-ups, counters at the kitchen. If you loved the original Loco, this is the same paddle with a face that keeps its spin. If you are coming from a widebody and want more reach without the swing weight of an elongated, the Hybrid is the easy step.

Want more reach and power for singles and drives? Take the Loco 2 Elongated. Want the lowest price in foam? The Enhance MPP Turbo is $99.99 with PRH.
