Product Overview
This T700 Carbon Fiber Pickleball Paddle is engineered for players seeking a balance of power and control in competitive or recreational play. Featuring a 16mm thick PP honeycomb core and a textured carbon fiber surface, it delivers enhanced spin and durability. The aerodynamic 'Power Air' cutout reduces wind resistance for faster swing speeds, while the ergonomic grip ensures comfort during extended matches. Designed to meet USAPA standards, this paddle is suitable for tournament-level performance and everyday training.
Key Features
- T700 Carbon Fiber Surface: Provides a rigid, responsive hitting area that maximizes power transfer and spin potential.
- 16mm PP Honeycomb Core: Offers a large sweet spot and consistent ball feedback, ideal for both aggressive drives and soft dinks.
- Power Air Aerodynamic Design: The distinctive cutout near the handle reduces drag, allowing for quicker racket head speed and improved maneuverability.
- Ergonomic Perforated Grip: Designed with moisture-wicking holes to prevent slippage and reduce hand fatigue during long games.
- Thermoformed Edge Guard: High-density foam protection along the perimeter enhances durability and protects against court impacts.
Why It Stands Out
Unlike standard paddles, this model integrates a specialized 'Power Air' structural cutout that actively improves aerodynamics without sacrificing structural integrity. The combination of T700 raw carbon fiber and a 16mm core creates a unique feel that bridges the gap between power-focused and control-focused paddles. The thermoformed edge guard adds a layer of protection often missing in lighter paddles, extending the product's lifespan for frequent players.

Paddle Care Guide
Paddle Care Guide
A little care will help your paddle stay clean, comfortable and ready for the next game.
Carbon fibre paddles
Wipe the surface gently with a soft, slightly damp microfibre cloth. A raw carbon fibre cleaning block may be used only on unpainted raw carbon surfaces. Avoid household cleaners, alcohol and abrasive brushes.
Graphite and fibreglass paddles
Clean with a soft damp cloth, then dry immediately. Don’t use carbon cleaning blocks or abrasive products, as these may scratch or damage the surface finish.
Wooden paddles
Wipe with a dry or lightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Keep wooden paddles away from rain, moisture and damp storage areas to help prevent swelling or warping.
Grip and edge care
Allow the grip to dry after playing and replace the grip or overgrip when it becomes slippery or worn. Regularly check the edge guard for looseness, cracks or damage.
Storage
Store your paddle indoors in a cool, dry place, ideally inside a protective cover. Avoid leaving it in a hot car, exposed to direct sunlight or stored under heavy items.
Never soak your paddle or place it in a dishwasher or washing machine.
