Encore EX 6.0 Thick Core

My current paddle is Engage Encore 6.0 (16mm core thickness). Found it too top heavy and fixed it with a lead around the tip of the handle. I happily played with it for a year. But the heavy wind lately (when it's blowing against me) makes me want to have an alternative power paddle.

But the EX 6.0 was noticeably better for damping shock and vibrations. I suspect it's related to the core material and core thickness Engage uses. The Rogue 2 had low shock/vibe when the ball was struck in a portion of the face (and the ball would really pop in that area!).
