Overview

The Cannon uses a 16mm Microporous Polymer core with a T700 raw carbon fiber face. Its thicker core and dense construction point toward a stable, solid feel on contact. The anti-slip grip should help keep the handle secure during faster exchanges. The paddle is listed as USA Pickleball approved.

Reviewers describe the Cannon as head-heavy, powerful, and stable against hard shots. That weight distribution can help drive the ball and resist twisting, but it also reduces maneuverability and forgiveness. One review specifically calls out a tight sweet spot, so off-center contact may punish you more than it would with an easier all-around paddle. A separate report raises questions about an earlier UPA-A approval issue, so check current tournament approval before entering sanctioned play.

Play style

This is built for aggressive drives, counters, and firm volley exchanges. Reviewers find that it maintains ball speed well, while its dense feel helps the paddle stay stable against hard-hitting opponents. The head-heavy balance can add weight to big swings from the baseline and through attacking volleys.

The tradeoff is control and quick handling. The tight sweet spot makes precise contact more important, especially during defensive resets or rushed kitchen exchanges. The carbon face may suit players who value a firm, direct response, but the available reviews do not establish a specific spin advantage.

Best for

  • Players who want more pace on baseline drives and counters
  • Players who prefer a stable, weighty feel during hard volley exchanges
  • Aggressive hitters who accept a smaller sweet spot
  • Players making a first upgrade for more power

Look elsewhere if

  • Players who need maximum forgiveness on off-center hits
  • Players prioritizing quick hand speed at the kitchen
  • Players focused on soft resets and precise control
  • Beginners who may struggle with a tight sweet spot

Strengths

  • Strong drive and counter power, according to reviewers
  • Dense construction helps the paddle remain stable against hard shots
  • Head-heavy balance supports forceful swings
  • 16mm polymer core provides a substantial, solid construction
  • T700 raw carbon fiber face offers a carbon-fiber hitting surface

Things to consider

  • The head-heavy build can reduce maneuverability and control
  • The sweet spot is described as tight, making mishits less forgiving
  • Its power-focused setup is less rounded than a control-oriented paddle
  • Check current tournament approval because one report describes an earlier UPA-A approval dispute
  • The reviews do not establish a distinct spin advantage
