Aptly named, the SLK EVO Control Max pickleball paddle brings increased precision and comfort, along with great spin potential to the update of this paddle formula. Starting with the basics, the EVO Control Max combines an agile and compact 16 inch overall length with a midweight range  between 7.6 - 8.1 ounces. Structurally, the change to thermoforming the EVO paddles serves to add power, creates a nearly indestructible level of durability and disperses vibration for enhanced comfort. SLK's 16mm Rev-Control Polymer Core which delivers manageable power, but leans towards longer ball dwell time, and thus increased control. Another facet of the EVO Control Max's theme of precision is the use of a premium T700 CarbonFusion Carbon Fiber surface with SpinFlex+ texture, which affords shot shaping and point controlling levels of spin on the ball. And paired with the compact paddle design is a 4.85 inch handle length, plus a 4.25 inch grip diameter wrapped by the SLK Ultra-Comfort base grip. Players hunting for a great performing, entry level paddle with plenty of spin potential and room for improvement are sure to get more than they bargained for with the SLK EVO Control Max paddle in hand.
