Overview

This paddle combines a 16mm honeycomb polypropylene core with an Aramid and Raw Carbon Fiber T700 face. Its 16.5-by-7.4-inch elongated shape gives you extra reach and a larger sweet spot than a shorter paddle. The 4.25-inch grip and precision-balanced handle round out a practical, competition-ready setup.

At 8.7 ounces, it sits in a middle ground: substantial enough for stability, but light enough for quick reactions. The thick core should favor a more controlled response, while the textured face supports spin and touch. Reviewers describe it as solid, well-balanced, and responsive during kitchen exchanges.

Play style

This paddle fits a player who mixes aggressive drives and serves with controlled dinks. The Aramid and carbon face is designed to add spin, while the 16mm core and textured surface support touch and accuracy. Reviewers report noticeable spin on serves and dinks, along with dependable control on precision shots.

The elongated shape helps when you want more reach from the baseline or at the kitchen. Its 8.7-ounce weight and balanced handle should also help with fast hand battles. Look elsewhere if you want an especially soft, muted feel or a compact paddle that changes direction even faster.

Best for

  • Players wanting more reach on baseline shots and kitchen volleys
  • Players who mix power with controlled dinks
  • Players seeking extra spin on serves and shaped shots
  • Players upgrading to a balanced paddle for quicker reactions
  • Players who prefer a 4.25-inch grip

Look elsewhere if

  • Players who want the lightest possible paddle for maximum hand speed
  • Players who prefer a compact shape over extra reach
  • Players seeking a very muted, plush response
  • Players who need a smaller grip than 4.25 inches

Strengths

  • Textured Aramid and Raw Carbon Fiber T700 face supports spin and control
  • 16mm polypropylene core favors a controlled response
  • Elongated 16.5-inch shape adds reach and helps enlarge the sweet spot

Things to consider

  • The elongated shape may feel less compact during rapid hand exchanges

  • Players wanting a very soft or muted feel may prefer another paddle
  • The 8.7-ounce weight may feel demanding for players accustomed to ultralight paddles
