Where this paddle fits

Factory fit: Modern Power. The GX2 Power Hybrid's 9.62-inch stock balance is 59.60% of its 16.14-inch length. This paddle sits in DinkFlow's modern head-heavy power extension, with more head presence and plow-through. Expect easier pace and a slower-hand trade-off. At 8.1 oz it is a balanced static weight that suits most recreational players, with a thicker core that lengthens dwell time and improves control on resets.

Tape budget to each archetype

lowers stock balance (handle weight near the butt cap). raises stock balance (head weight at 12 o'clock). Distances assume the simplest single-position shift; real placements vary, and the DinkFlow Paddle Tuner simulates lead tape and counterweight changes against this exact spec.

The archetype methodology explains the percentage-based target lanes, why adjacent styles can overlap, and how to pick a target archetype based on your playing style.
