Very professional, website easy to navigate and delivery quick. Initial impressions the paddle has good pop while still maintaining control. Definitely has a great sweet spot.

I find the paddle gets dirty very quickly when I played outside, on average two times a week. Way faster than the raw carbon paddle I have (different brand).
To put it into the context:
1. The paddle is less than a month old.
2. It has been scrubbed rather well with a paddle eraser.
3. The performance is still OK.
I don't know how this embedded dirt (or whatever it is) will affect the paddle performance in the long run, but definitely not happy about it.

I do find this racket very good for control game. I have been playing with the six zero Ruby before trying the J2K. I find the J2K is a more stiff paddle vs the cushy Ruby. For my game I prefer the Ruby more and I find the Ruby has a better spin. Nonetheless, I adapted very well from the Ruby to the J2K. A great paddle. I do prefer the Ruby more though

I've been using the Ronbus Pulsar R3 and the Honolulu Sword & Shield J2K has more pop and feel at the kitchen and it has a lighter swing weight. There's less power at the baseline but can still hit the ball deep with a lot of spin. Overall, it's a good all-round paddle for doubles and I am happy playing with it. I believe my game has improved with better drops and countering at the kitchen.

Am loving my blue 16mm J2K. Have found that it allows great control and consistency on soft shots and enough power for ground strokes. It is a great overall all purpose paddle. Less softness than my Selkirk luxx invicta (super soft) and softer than my 6.0 double black diamond 14mm. Thank you Rackets and Runners!
