Overview
The paddle uses a raw 12K T700 carbon-fiber face over a 16mm polymer honeycomb core. Its hybrid shape measures 16.53 inches long and 7.4 inches wide, with an extended handle and 4.25-inch grip. The longer profile adds reach, while the thicker core should produce a softer, more controlled response than a thinner core. It is USA Pickleball approved.
The listed weight is 8 ounces, which keeps it near the manageable middleweight range. One reviewer measured a T700 Storm-007 at 8.5 ounces, so check the delivered paddle if weight matters to your arm or swing. Reviewers describe the raw carbon face as useful for spin and the paddle as having a forgiving sweet spot.
Play style
This paddle fits a control-leaning all-court game built around topspin drives, slices, placement, and soft kitchen exchanges. The raw carbon face is intended to grip the ball, while the 16mm core should favor touch and a less abrupt response. That combination suits players who want spin without choosing a power-first design.
The extended handle and long hybrid profile help with two-handed backhands and baseline reach. The shape still leaves enough width for net play, but the paddle may feel less suited to players who mainly want maximum put-away power. Player opinions on the paddle's weight differ, so confirm the actual weight before buying.
Best for
- Players upgrading to a carbon-fiber paddle for more spin
- Two-handed backhand players who want an extended handle
- Players developing softer kitchen shots and controlled exchanges
- Baseline players who value reach and topspin drives
Look elsewhere if
- Players who mainly want maximum put-away power
- Players who prefer a compact handle
- Players sensitive to a paddle arriving heavier than its listed weight
Strengths
- Raw 12K T700 carbon face supports spin-focused shots
- 16mm polymer core favors a softer, more controlled response
- Extended handle provides room for a two-handed backhand
- Hybrid 16.53-inch shape adds reach for baseline coverage
- Reviewers report a forgiving sweet spot
Things to consider
- One reviewer measured a T700 version at 8.5 ounces instead of the listed 8 ounces
- The control-focused setup may not satisfy players seeking maximum power
- The 4.25-inch grip may not suit every hand size
- Confirm the exact version, since Storm-007 variants use different face materials and shapes
