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
Nomex honeycomb is a hard, paper-based aramid core. It is typically louder and more powerful than polypropylene, with less cushioning for touch shots.
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)

Amateur and USA Pickleball–sanctioned events accept paddles on the USA Pickleball list. PPA Tour and MLP pro events require UPA-A certification.
