Featuring a 14mm thick core, this paddle features an elongated 5.7in handle with 4.3in handle circumference (weight range 7.6-7.9oz). The C45 is a hybrid paddle that offers a multitude of different technologies, giving each player a combination of supreme control and full power on the court. The C45 is constructed with a DOUBLE thermoformed unibody frame. This process is exceptional because it helps to fully enhance the structural integrity of the paddle itself and reduce vibration. The additional thermoforming process is one of the many reasons our paddle is different than the rest. The large inner foam channel allows the C45 to stay structurally sound while also keeping the polymer core in tact, no crushing here! Players will feel the incredible pop coming from the paddle but also feel fully in control. The carbon fiber surface layer is applied as a 45 degree peel ply texture. The 45 degree angle provides a superior amount of grit and spin right off the surface, giving players an incredible amount of power and speed right off the paddle. This process maximizes grip and unlocks spin potential.
