Pro Kennex engineers have applied the physics of shape design to elevate paddle performance with an expanded sweet spot and a more efficient energy transfer. The new modified oval shape creates one of nature's strongest designs, bringing a higher percentage of paddle mass along the center axis. Players looking for a competitive advantage in their equipment will immediately notice an increase in paddle maneuverability and speed. At the foundation of this high performance package is the new Opti-Cell Core construction, which is indispensable to high performance level achieved in the Ovation Shape design. Integrated together, they deliver an exceedingly plush ball strike, allowing you to maneuver your shot with confidence. To finish off this masterful performance package is a proprietary 7 Layer, Complex Carbon face with its Spin-Grab outer layer surface. And, of course, the world famous Kinetic technology which is integrated into the perimeter of the paddle for unparalleled arm protection and extended dwell time. All verified by independent labs and Koln University, in Germany.

Paddle Frame: Kinetic System Technology with Carbon Casing Edge Guard: Edgeless USAPA Listed and Approved We have take the time to weigh and have these available by specific weight. Please let us know which paddle weight you'd like after ordering in the notes area. Disclaimer: Due to high-performance aerodynamic edgeless-construction, chipping and scratches occur during normal wear and tear. The Air-o-guard will slow down the wear and tear of the edge. But the surface close to the edge is not fully protected and wear will show on the faces after prolonged use. This is not considered a defect under the manufacturer warranty.
