Project 008 Tour 16mm
PureFoam Core for consistent shots and increased paddle lifespan.
As one of the first fully foam cores to meet rigorous playability standards, the PureFoam Core represents a new standard for pickleball paddles with its long-lasting durability and responsiveness. The high-density foam is engineered to resist crushing and deformation over time while expanding the sweet spot compared to traditional polypropylene-core paddles.
T700 Raw Carbon Fiber Face for spin and control.
The T700 Raw Carbon Fiber Face combines lightweight strength with superior responsiveness, for a balanced blend of pop and precise control.
Thermoformed Construction with Additional Foam Wall for an expanded sweet spot with extra forgiveness.
The Thermoformed Construction with Additional Foam Wall introduces a new level of durability and performance by reinforcing the paddle's edges. This advanced design incorporates a foam wall along the paddle's perimeter, seamlessly bonded during the thermoforming process. The foam wall enhances structural integrity while expanding the effective sweet spot, ensuring consistent performance across the entire face of the paddle.
By distributing impact forces more evenly, this construction reduces vibration and improves energy transfer, resulting in a paddle that feels solid yet responsive with every shot. The added foam wall also contributes to increased edge durability, making the paddle better equipped to withstand intense gameplay without compromising its aerodynamic profile.
Octagonal Handle for grip stability and quick maneuvers.
The Octagonal Handle improves grip stability and enables quick adjustments, empowering players to react with precision during fast-paced rallies.
