The LOK Carb On Flow Gen 2, a 2026 model, is designed for competitive players who favor an aggressive approach. Its diamond shape and high balance point contribute significantly to its offensive capabilities. In our testing, we found it delivered substantial force on overhead shots and volleys; we attributed it 7.5/10 for power. The medium-firm 6K carbon fiber surface, coupled with a custom medium EVA core, provides a consistent feel on impact. While its attacking potential is clear, we did observe that its control rating, which we set at 5.1/10, indicates it demands precision from the player. The textured surface helps generate good spin, and we rate it 7/10 in this regard, making it effective for adding bite to serves and smashes. Weighing between 360-375g, it feels stable during powerful exchanges, but its high difficulty rating of 8.6/10 means it is best suited for experienced players who can handle its demanding nature. The carbon fiber frame and construction contribute to its durability, for which we gave it 7/10. Priced at $290, we assigned it 5/10 for value for money, considering its specialist profile. If you have played with the Carb On Flow Gen 2, we would be interested to hear your thoughts in the comments section below.
