Play Style

This paddle falls in the power category (mid to low-tier power). In the current market it is in about the 83% percentile for power and 70% pop, a great place to be! The dual-density foam core provides a comfortable foamy feel along with great stability. Many players comment how great it feels off the face and how well the paddle seems to grab the ball., allowing them to shape the ball more easily. The core combined with the Kevlar-carbon fiber surface provides a solid amount of power and pop and great spin (2178 RPM!)

Paddle Shape

The long paddle length of 16.5” extends players’ reach and the 5.5” handle length allows for powerful two-handed backhands. The rounded top of the paddle face gives players an aerodynamic feel, and the weight of ~8.0 ounces provides stability and balance for all aspects of the game, including plays at the net and returning hard shots. The paddle has a swing weight of 117 and a solid twist weight of 6.46. It has a 16mm thick full foam core designed to evenly react to the force of impact and provide precision control, while also absorbing vibration and noise.

Product Features:

The dual-density foam core includes an EPP full foam core surrounded by softer EVA foam. There is a gap between EPP and EVA to prevent layers from separating over time.

• Edge foam starts at the neck and extends into the handle
• Thermoformed
• Handle is honeycomb polypropylene to keep the weight down
• Kevlar-carbon fiber surface provides a bit more pop and power than carbon fiber paddles

Benefits of a dual -density full-foam core:

• Enhanced Durability: Full foam doesn't crush like honeycomb cores can, maintaining structural integrity and preventing performance breakdown over time.
• Larger Sweet Spot: Foam fills the core more consistently, eliminating dead spots and providing a predictable, reliable feel across the entire paddle face.
• Superior Control & Spin: Increased dwell time allows for better manipulation, leading to more spin and precise shot placement.
• Less Vibration & Arm Fatigue: The cushioning effect of foam absorbs shock, making it ideal for players with tennis elbow or wrist pain.
• Consistent Feel: Offers a more uniform feel and predictable response,
• Balance of Power & Control: The combination of EPP and EVA foam offer both power and touch.
