DBD Control is a 14mm hybrid with a 79-class control profile, ~2,107 RPM, and a heavy 119.4 swing weight. Firepower is very low. $180 → $162 with PRH10. A specialist control bat, not the 2026 Six Zero to buy first.
PRH10 The Verdict
Old-school Six Zero control — high SW, low firepower, real resets.
This was the paddle we wanted to like for kitchen work, then noticed how much we had to muscle drives. After thorough on-court evaluation, the Six Zero Double Black Diamond Control 14mm is a strong fit for soft-game doubles players who want a 14mm control hybrid and will swing for depth — see how it plays below, across 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.

How It Plays
Control leads this one.
PRH10 On-Court Feel
Resets and dinks are the pitch. The face stays quiet. You will not accidentally put the ball away — you might struggle to put it away on purpose.\n\nSwing weight 119.4 makes that quiet face feel late in hands battles. Coral Pro Widebody does the control job with modern spin and a lighter swing.
Performance & Testing
The Six Zero Double Black Diamond Control 14mm 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
Established Six Zero construction. Confirm current production on the shop page.
Who It's For
Reset specialists who already like 14mm control paddles.\n\nSkip if you want modern spin/pop — Coral Pro is the move.
