Coming from a light 14mm Holbrook Power Pro, a player found the Quanta R4 smashing on day one: much more power, better dwell and control on drives, strong grit, though dinks felt a bit firm.
“First day with the Quanta R4 and it was SMASHING - huge difference in power generated by the full foam core.”
After three hours with the Quanta R4 at 8.0 oz with just an overgrip, a player loved how fast it is at the kitchen unweighted.
“I loved how fast the R4 is at the kitchen with no weight added.”
After six hours, a player found the stock Quanta R4 light and great at the net but weak and buzzy from the baseline with poor twist weight; adding weight toward the head brought a ton of power and a juicy sweet spot.
“it was very light, awesome for guarding at the net and hand battles but has very poor power at the baseline with a lot of vibration into the handle”
A player who has had the Quanta R4 for a week loves it so much they bought a second one and haven't enjoyed playing this much in a while.
“I've had my R4 this week.. Wow! What a paddle.. Went and bought a second one straight away..”
With only 3g at 3 and 9 o'clock, a player is very pleased with the Quanta R4 and finds counters awesome.
“Only put 3g at 3 and 9 o’clock on my R4 and I’ve been very pleased so far. Counters are awesome with it.”
After playing a friend's weighted Quanta R4, a player found it super manoeuvrable and well balanced with good power and great touch, a really great paddle for the price.
“Super maneuverable, great balance (my 11six24 Hurache-X APP is much more head-heavy), good power and great touch. Really great paddle, especially for the price.”
A mostly elongated player says the Quanta R4 hybrid is one of the best paddles they have played and a beast for doubles.
“Their hybrid is one of the best I’ve ever played. Mostly play elongated, still do for singles, but the R4 is a beast for doubles.”
A player loves their weighted Quanta R4 so much that pickleball feels like a new, far more exciting game.
“I love my weighted up R4 to the point that pickleball is basically a new, far more exciting game to me now.”
Coming from the Joola Hyperion, a player loves the weighted Quanta R4 for its lower launch on drives, with the only downside a slightly smaller sweet spot.
“Love the paddle coming from the joola Hyperion. Launch angle on drives seems lower too me which is a plus, only downside is I feel the sweet spot is a bit smaller”
After two months at 6–8 hours a week, a player still likes the Quanta R4's spin, power and feel, but the face is almost completely smooth and serve spin has dropped.
“still like the paddle a lot but have noticed the face is almost completely smooth after 2 months of play.”
With 7.5g at 3 and 9, a player says the Quanta R4 plays really well with great power and control, easier to control than the Boomstik with nearly as much power.
“I added 7.5 grams tungsten strips (2 inch) at 3 and 9 for my R4 and it plays really well. Great power and control.”
After a first session with 7.5g per side, a player loved how the Quanta R4 played.
“I played with my R4 for the first time yesterday and added 7.5g of weight to both sides to mirror the Boomstick. I loved how it played”
After two days stock, a player added 7.5g at 3 and 9 to the Quanta R4 and it went from just OK to a paddle they love.
“I played without weight for 2 days. The weight completely transformed the paddle for me.”
With a 3g-at-9-12-3 weight setup, a player loves the way their Quanta R4 hits.
“I followed Matt’s Pickleball setup of 3g at 9, 12, 3 to mimic the BnB Loco and I just love the way my r4 hits.”
A player liked the Quanta R4 stock for easy resets and dinks despite modest power, and found added weight brings a bigger sweet spot, power, pop and stability.
“I actually really liked it without weight. It’s not very powerful, but it was really easy to reset and dink.”
The edge guard came loose on a player's Quanta R4; Ronbus exchanged it the same day.
“Exactly the same experience for me. Edge guard came loose on my Quanta r4.”
A Quanta R4 owner's edge guard came loose; Ronbus shipped a replacement within the hour.
“Emailed Ronbus yesterday my R4 edge guard was loose.”
A former tennis player who bought the Quanta R4 for hand speed found that even weighted like a Boomstik it stayed much faster than the Boomstik.
“It was still way faster than the boomstik but at this point I was trying to squeeze out everything from the paddle”
A longtime Ronbus player tried the Quanta hybrid (R4) and thinks it's a great paddle once weighted, though they prefer a softer feel.
“I also tried the Quanta hybrid and think it’s a great paddle once you add some weight.”
