What weight category is this paddle?

At 225g this is a midweight paddle - a popular balance point that delivers both good control and enough mass for solid drives. The most versatile weight category.

What is the face material and how does it affect play?

This paddle has a carbon fibre face - a premium material that delivers good spin potential, stiffness for power, and a responsive feel compared to older fibreglass paddles.

What does the core thickness mean for how it plays?

This paddle has a 16 mm core. Thicker cores (16mm+) give a softer feel, generous sweet spot and better control on resets and dinks - ideal for defensive and all-court players. The trade-off is slightly less raw power.

What does the standard shape mean for my game?

The standard shape is the most versatile paddle profile - a balance between sweet spot size and reach that suits the widest range of players. A safe choice if you're unsure what shape works best for you.
