The CRBN 1X Power Series 16mm. pickleball paddle speaks for itself when it comes to performance. New to this family of paddles CRBN introduces a Uni-Body (thermo-formed) design which noticeably improves stability, energy return, and durability. An 8 oz. average weight, and elongated 16.5 in. paddle length fortifies the 1X Power Series 16mm. with lots of manageable power, plus additional stability. Relative to the 14mm. example of the 1X Power Series, the thicker 16mm. Polypropylene Honeycomb Core dials up the core based control and ball dwell time. And common to all of the Power Series paddles is a raw T700 Carbon Fiber surface, which provides a precise feel, along with easy access to point controlling levels of spin on the ball. Foam Injected Edge Walls around the perimeter of the core, enhances the sweet spot, and together with the core material, also provides the 1X Power Series 16mm. with top-notch vibration control. A 5.5 in. handle is long enough to play your way to the kitchen, and/or all the way to the podium, using one, or two hands on the paddle, with a 4.25 in. grip being suitable for most hand sizes. Players who want outstanding directional control from their paddle, for rolling volleys, mid-court blocks, and effective reset shots, along with ample put-away power, will love CRBN's 1X Power Series 16mm.
