What materials are used in Pro-Line Paddles?
Our high end paddles utilize premium surface materials from 18K carbon fiber to T700 Toray+ carbon fiber for a lightweight, durable and responsive feel. Titanium carbon fiber edgeless designs and triple layer small cell honeycomb core maximize paddle longevity eliminating core crush.
What is the difference between Toray+ carbon fiber and regular carbon fiber?
Toray+ carbon fiber stands out for its advanced design, offering unmatched touch, control, and responsiveness. It eliminates unwanted vibrations, creating a softer, more refined feel during play.

How are Pro-Line paddles balanced?
Pro-Line paddles are engineered with BalanceLock technology to optimize weight distribution, allowing players to customize their paddle’s swing weight for their preferred play style. Natively the aluminum inserts broaden the paddle sweet spot, but when you add weight to the head or base, you begin to change the swing weight and open up the sweet spot even further for the best control on the market.
