CRBN TruFoam Waves 2 Pickleball Paddle
Overview
The CRBN TruFoam Waves marks a new step forward in foam-core design. Its dual-layer construction resists crushing and enhances stability, creating a more connected and forgiving feel across the entire face. On court, the response is immediate: controlled touch on softer shots, with quick access to power when the swing accelerates. Compared to the Genesis, the Waves offers slightly less dwell time, yet still lingers on the ball longer than traditional polymer cores, striking a rare balance of forgiveness, spin, and pop that holds steady over time.
The Waves 2 is built on a 16" x 7.85" square profile, with a 5.25" handle, giving it the broadest sweet spot and the most balanced feel in the lineup. Quick through the hands yet stable on contact, it excels in fast kitchen exchanges while still offering the forgiveness needed for controlled resets and blocks.
Best for: Players who value versatility and consistency, fast reactions at the net, stable defense, and reliable control with enough power to finish points.
