Power Pickleball Paddles

Designed for aggressive players who prioritise forceful shots and swift volleys, power paddles enhance shot potency. 

The key features of POWER pickleball paddles:

• The overall length 16.4 in (417 mm) and the handle length 5.3 in (135 mm) are both longer.
• Thickness: A thinner core, offers less cushioning, resulting in more 'pop' and energy transfer.
• Overall weight: This is heavier, (greater than 227g) helping to generate greater weight of shot hence more power.
• The firmer, harder core, leads to less dwell time on the paddle face for excellent smashes and drives.

What are the advantages of a thin core?
A thin core does not absorb the ball as much, decreasing the time the ball is on your paddle (the dwell time), and allowing you to generate more power. 

Contradictions

• Contradiction: Some “power” paddles have thicker 16 mm thick cores, which is offset by a stiffer core material to still deliver extra pop.
• Contradiction: some paddles CAN have lighter weights, but stiffness of the material can offset the lighter weight.
