Its suspended CarbonRibCore structure separates the carbon core from the frame, so the face can store and release more energy on each contact. It suits intermediate to advanced players who want a powerful, wider paddle with a bit more forgiveness than a standard elongated design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSST 2.0 CarbonRibCore – suspended core lets the face flex and release energy for more pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHybrid shape – a wider hitting area gives you a larger, more stable sweet spot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToray T-700 carbon core – a mid-modulus core that balances power with a crisp feel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3K woven raw carbon face – a textured surface for better spin on topspin and drive shots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-carbon construction – holds its shape through regular hard use and impacts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCore Thickness\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePaddle Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8.0 oz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePaddle Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.2 Inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePaddle Width\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.8 Inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHandle Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.5 Inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHandle Circumference\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4 inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSurface Material\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3K Woven Raw Carbon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eInner Core Material\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e200 FAW Toray T-700 Mid Modulus Carbon Fiber\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCore Construction\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuspended Patented SST 2.0 CarbonRibCore Structure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWarranty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 Year\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eUSA Pickleball Approved\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis paddle is a good fit for players who hit with two hands on either side, or who want a wider face for steadier contact.
