The Luzz Inferno 2 M1 is a 16mm elongated Gen 4 foam paddle (MPP + TPE) with a very head-heavy 121.5 swing weight and ~6.25 twist weight. It is built to hit through the court, not win lightning hands battles. $239 stock, about $203.15 with code PRH (15% off) at luzzpickleball.com/PRH. UPA-A — confirm USAP on the listing if you need it.
PRH The Verdict
The new Inferno — foam pop with a serious swing-weight tax.
My brother called this one a truck — it finishes balls, then asks you to wait on the next volley. After thorough on-court evaluation, the Luzz Inferno 2 M1 16mm is a strong fit for attackers who want elongated foam plow-through and will live with a heavy swing — see category scores below for power, control, spin, and feel.
If you're comparing it against other foam-core paddles, it's one of several great foam core paddles we've played this year.

Performance Scores
PRH On-Court Feel
Foam dwell is the first thing you notice. Drives pocket, then jump. Serves and put-aways have real mass behind them because the balance sits head-heavy (~25 cm class). That is the point of this shape.\n\nThe cost is the kitchen. Swing weight 121.5 is among the heaviest we will list. Counters and resets ask for earlier prep. Off-center contact is playable (TW ~6.25) but not widebody-stable. If you already like the older Pro 4 Inferno and wanted a more uniform foam hit, this is that update — not a Glider replacement.
Performance & Testing
The Luzz Inferno 2 M1 16mm went through our standard on-court protocol - drills, rec play, and at least one tournament match. Scores reflect consensus feedback, not a single reviewer's opinion.
Grit & Durability
Unibody foam with a carbon face. Early grit is average-class, not DiamondGrit / Crystal Blue endurance. Wipe the face. Luzz's 15% PRH code is the value story — $239 list is premium without it.
Who It's For
Singles and attack-first doubles players who generate their own pace and want elongated foam.\n\nSkip if you live in hands battles, want a light swing, or are still building consistent center contact. Start with the Glider 2026 if control and hand speed matter more.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Gen 4 foam dwell with real put-away mass
- Elongated reach and head-heavy plow
- PRH takes $239 to about $203
- Follow-up to the Pro 4 Inferno with a more even foam hit
Cons
- Swing weight 121.5 is a handful at the kitchen
- Head-heavy — not a reset specialist
- Spin data still thinner than our lab-heavy catalog paddles
- UPA-A first — check USAP if your events require it
- Glider is easier for most doubles players
Bottom Line
A real foam bomber — only if you can swing 121.5 without getting late.
