The Volair SHIFT HYB SpongeBob SquarePants 14mm is a signature pickleball paddle that pairs the SHIFT line's full-foam core with SpongeBob SquarePants artwork. It suits players who want a balance of power, control and touch in one paddle. Its main difference is a full-foam floating core with engineered flex channels that keep the ball on the face a little longer.
