Two core
constructions.
A clear choice for your game.
HexCore feels firmer and steadier. ProFoam is lighter and quicker to swing. Same carbon faces, same shape — a different core inside.
Every number here was measured on real paddles — weighed, balanced, bent under known weights and struck by a dropped ball.

01 · Choose your core
Your core. Your preference.
Shared foundation: carbon faces, a 16 mm face-and-core sandwich and closely matching outer shapes. The core architecture creates a meaningful choice.
HexCore
Firm, steady honeycomb feel
Carbon faces over a honeycomb core. HexCore feels firmer on touch shots, stays steadier on off-centre hits and bends the same way on every shot.
Choose HexCore for: A firmer feel, more stability on off-centre hits and a solid 231.8 g build.

Weight
More substantial build
Lower-weight option
Steady on off-centre hits
