Overview
Offering what are perhaps the most versatile and customizable series of pickleball paddles, this is the Master Athletics P3! Stock weight of the P3 is around 8.0 oz. and with the Tuning Kit one can modify the balance and potentially increase the P3 s weight by up to half an ounce (14 grams). Relative to the prior P2 paddle, the update for the Master Athletics P3 features a slightly longer 16.15 in. overall length for extra reach and leverage based power. In addition, the P3 is paired with a thicker 16mm. Polypropylene Core, which along with Master Athletic s ultra-spin friendly SpinTex surface, complements its considerable power with an equal degree of precision. The P3 s Solid One-Piece Carbon frame construction ties together and improves paddle stability, durability and energy return (power). Players with an appetite for an easily modifiable all-court paddle, in a compact shape that is virtually indestructible, can now close the menu after playing with the Master Athletics P3 pickleball paddle.
