Overview
The new Paddletek Tempest Wave Pro v3 went through several small refinements, relative to the prior model, resulting in higher degrees of paddle performance, in terms of manageable all-court power, premium touch, and improved spin potential. A slightly thicker (14.3 mm.) Advanced High Grade Carbon Polymer Composite Core provides a generous sweet spot, and still adds power, but with a layer of precision, as does the increased paddle length, which is now at 15.85 inches. Paddletek uses their ICED Carbon Fiber surface w/ Perma-Spin Technology, and like the name implies, it produces long-lasting, and easy access to spin on the ball. The V3 Tempest Wave Pro is available in a weight from 7.6-8.0 ounces, affording a range of paddle stability, and/or maneuverability. Further adding to its versatility is the option of a 4 1/8 or 4 3/8 grip size, which are wrapped in Paddletek's high-comfort base grip, making the Tempest Wave Pro V3 a potent paddle choice for any skill level, or play style.
