What these specs mean

Core thickness
A 16 mm core is the most common choice for control. The extra depth absorbs more impact, which tends to make dinks and resets easier to keep low, with a little less pop.
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.
Shape
Elongated paddles add reach and leverage for more swing speed on drives and serves, and often have a longer handle for two-handed backhands. The trade-off is a narrower face, so the sweet spot is smaller and off-center hits are less forgiving.
Face
A raw carbon face leaves the carbon-fiber surface untreated. Its natural texture tends to grip the ball for spin, though texture can wear with heavy use.

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