Our take on the Inferno 2
The new Luzz Inferno 2 M1 features an upgraded core from the original Pro 4 Inferno, delivering a more uniform feel and added consistency. The Aero-Black surface is also designed to maintain dependable friction through extended play.
Is the Inferno 2 worth $239?
Yes, if you want explosive power with a steadier bounce. At $239 it sits in the high price range, and it keeps the original Inferno’s explosive performance in an elongated shape while correcting its unpredictable bounce.
Who should buy the Inferno 2?
Players who want big power from an elongated paddle with a more uniform feel than the original Pro 4 Inferno. A high 120 swing weight rewards a fast, full swing and puts real mass behind drives and overheads.
Buy it if
- You want an explosive elongated power paddle
- You liked the original Inferno but wanted consistency
- You want a face built to keep its friction
- You swing fast and want mass behind drives
Skip it if
- You need a USA Pickleball approved paddle
- You want a low swing weight
- You want a widebody-style sweet spot
How does the Inferno 2 play?
Power is high, and the upgraded core makes the bounce more uniform than the original Inferno. The textured Aero-Black surface is designed to keep friction dependable through extended play, and the elongated shape adds reach. The 120 swing weight is slower in fast exchanges.
What are the strengths and trade-offs of the Inferno 2?
Its biggest edge is explosive power with a more predictable bounce than the original. The main cost is a heavy 120 swing weight that slows the hands at the kitchen.
Strengths
- Explosive power in an elongated shape
- Upgraded core gives a more uniform feel
- Strong spin to go with the power
- Aero-Black face keeps friction dependable
Trade-offs
- High swing weight slows hands battles
- Elongated shape has a smaller sweet spot than widebodies
- Medium 6.1 twist weight on off-center hits
