The CRBN 1X Series 14mm. paddle speaks for itself when it comes to performance. New to this family of pickleball 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 Series 14mm. with lots of manageable power, plus additional stability. And without sacrificing comfort, the 14mm Polypropylene Honeycomb insert dials up the core-based power a little more, relative to the 16mm. example of the 1X Series. Common to all of the Power Series paddles is a raw T700 Carbon Fiber surface, which is a primary source of control, producing shot shaping, and point-controlling levels of spin on the ball, along with a forgiving feel. Foam Injected Edge Walls around the edge of the core, enhance the sweet spot, and together with the core material, also provide the 1X Series 14mm. with excellent vibration control. Whether you play your way to the kitchen, and/or the podium, using one, or two hands on the paddle a 5.5 in. handle length provides plenty of room, with a 4.25 in. grip being suitable for most hand sizes. Players who want a bit more core liveliness, along with plenty of control to put-away for volleys, and ground-strokes, will love CRBN's 1X Series 14mm paddle!
