Vatic Pro V-Sol Tour Bloom vs Vatic Pro V-Sol Tour Flash
The Vatic Pro V-Sol Tour Bloom is a 16 mm widebody paddle; the Vatic Pro V-Sol Tour Flash is a 16 mm hybrid one. Across the 6 specs with a clearly better direction the V-Sol Tour Flash takes 4 and the V-Sol Tour Bloom takes 1. The V-Sol Tour Bloom swings lighter (110.0 vs 112.0) — quicker hands at the net, where the V-Sol Tour Flash plows through the ball instead. That is a preference, not a win. They retail for the same $109.99.
Two paddles from the same brand, so the differences are the ones the maker chose. Every number below is lab-measured, not a manufacturer claim.
