What these specs mean

Core thickness
A mid-thickness core (about 14 to 15 mm) sits between the two common builds: a bit more pop than 16 mm, a bit more cushion than 13 mm.
Core material
Polypropylene honeycomb is the most widely used core. The plastic cells absorb impact, giving a quiet, soft and forgiving feel that suits control and touch.
Face
Carbon fiber faces are stiff and light, generally favoring control and a consistent response.

These are typical tendencies of each construction. Weight, balance, surface treatment and each brand's specific materials also change how a paddle plays.
