What these specs mean
- Core thickness
- Thinner cores (about 13 mm and under) typically feel firmer and send the ball off the face faster: more power and a crisper feel, with less touch on soft shots.
- Core material
- This core combines honeycomb with foam, usually to keep honeycomb's softness while adding pop or stability.
- Face
- Kevlar (aramid) faces are tough and are often blended with carbon for durability and a dampened, stable feel.
These are typical tendencies of each construction. Weight, balance, surface treatment and each brand's specific materials also change how a paddle plays.
Pro tour legality (UPA-A)
