The Profi-2 is one of the top paddles in the world. It is made in Germany by Gehrhard Schurr and is truly representative of old world craftsmanship and attention to detail. It comes with a beautiful lacquered finish and a solid thick brass base. The feel of this key is crisp and I am able to adjust it for tight contact spacing. It utilizes magnetic contact tension which I feel is the superior contact tension mode.
