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
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
This face blends materials, for example carbon with fiberglass or Kevlar, to balance feel, power and durability.
Combination
A thin honeycomb core is a classic power build: firm and fast off the face, with less dwell time for touch shots.

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)
