Overview
The Storm-007 combines a raw 12K T700 carbon-fiber face with a 16mm polymer core. Its 7.7-ounce listed weight keeps it in a manageable range, while the hybrid shape measures 16.53 inches long and 7.4 inches wide. The carbon surface is designed to grip the ball, and reviewers report strong spin and a large sweet spot.
The extended handle and 4.25-inch grip give you room for a two-handed backhand. The thicker polymer core should favor a softer, more controlled response than a thinner core. The paddle is USA Pickleball approved. One reviewer measured a heavier Storm-007 than the listed weight, so confirm the delivered paddle's weight before buying.
Play style
This paddle fits players who build points with topspin drives, controlled slices, and deliberate placement. Reviewers describe its raw carbon face as especially useful for generating spin, while the 16mm core and expanded sweet spot support touch and forgiveness on imperfect contact.
The longer hybrid profile adds reach without becoming especially wide. That can help with baseline coverage and two-handed backhands. Choose it if you want a control-leaning all-court paddle with spin. Look elsewhere if you mainly want maximum put-away power or prefer a compact handle.
Best for
- Players upgrading to a carbon-fiber paddle for more spin
- Two-handed backhand players who want an extended handle
- Players working on soft shots and controlled kitchen exchanges
- Baseline players who value reach and topspin drives
Look elsewhere if
- Players who want the strongest possible power from every swing
- Players who prefer a short, compact handle
- Players sensitive to small weight differences between listings and delivered paddles
Strengths
- Raw T700 carbon fiber is linked by reviewers to strong spin potential
- The 16mm polymer core and expanded sweet spot support control and forgiveness
- The 16.53-inch hybrid shape provides useful reach
- The extended handle suits two-handed backhands
- USA Pickleball approval supports tournament use
Things to consider
- A reviewer measured a heavier paddle than the listed weight, so verify the actual weight
- The longer shape may feel less compact than a standard paddle
- A 16mm control-oriented core may not satisfy players seeking maximum pop
- The grip size is fixed at 4.25 inches, which may not suit every hand
