Description
The Amakirk Power 5.0 16mm is a raw carbon pickleball paddle with a True Foam Core. It suits players who want a softer feel and controlled touch without losing spin. Its main difference is the foam core, which absorbs vibration where most paddles use polypropylene.

- True Foam Core – absorbs impact for a softer, more comfortable feel
- Raw Carbon T700 face – supports controlled dinks, drops and spin shots
- Thermoformed inner core – keeps the build consistent from shot to shot
