My set of paddles at home is a moderately heavy Begali (Magnetic Classic).
My paddles for my mobile setup is a no-longer-sold Profi II by Schurr. It
weighs
something like 54 ounces, so it doesn't move much either!

Although the Profi II is no longer available, there's a new model that
looks very similar - very pretty with what looks like a  bronze base and a
built-in dust cover. It is both weighty and pricey - not for the faint of
heart or faint of wallet!

My Profi and Begali both draw about as much conversation as my K3.
