Description
The Kaitashi Suwa Pro 16mm is a pickleball paddle built for players who like to attack. It pairs a raw T700 carbon fiber face with an EPP core, so you get fast, penetrating drives and clear pace on your smashes. Compared with a softer paddle, the Suwa Pro rewards a proactive game plan and keeps the ball moving with purpose.
Key Features
- T700 raw carbon face – higher friction on contact for more spin on drives, topspin and smashes
- EPP core with TFP inner core – a balance of power and stability for controlled attacks at the net
- 16.5 × 7.5 × 0.63 in (418 × 190 × 16 mm) shape with a 5.7 in (146 mm) handle – strong drives from the baseline and quick backhand transitions
- Two-tone electroplated edge guard – reinforces the rim against hard impacts
- Black leather handle with a rubber vibration damper – better grip control and less wrist strain during long sessions
