Tested the 2026 Hyper Pro 2.0 with the 8 g plate removed and was disappointed, as was a stronger friend. It feels fairly dry, is very well built and has a big sweet spot, but feels heavy without giving extra power, sitting in an in-between zone they didn't enjoy.

“The build quality is undeniably very good, and it has a big sweet spot. The problem for me is that it feels unnecessarily heavy. Its weight doesn't translate into power.”
