Description
The RPM FRICTION PRO 14MM Elongated V2 Ryan Fu Signature is a 14mm elongated pickleball paddle built for aggressive, fast-paced play. Its elongated shape adds reach for high balls, volleys and singles, and the thin core is designed for quick rebound off the face. It is the version Ryan Fu uses in competition.

Who It's For
This paddle suits players who like to attack with drives, topspin and smashes and who have quick hands and good swing speed. It is approved for sanctioned tournament play, but it rewards players who can control the ball, as it is not built for soft, touch-heavy games.
FAQ

Yes. The RPM FRICTION PRO 14MM Elongated V2 Ryan Fu Signature is USA Pickleball approved, so you can use it in sanctioned tournament play.
Who is this paddle best suited for?
