    Special Features

    DOUBLE THERMOFORMED

    The C45 is constructed using a double thermoforming process. This process helps to ensure the integrity of the paddle by enhancing the structure, not once but twice. This brings strength to the unibody design and helps to reduce vibration.

    45 DEGREE CARBON SURFACE

    The T700 Carbon Fiber is applied as a peel ply texture at a 45 degree angle. T700 creates a naturally textured surface, however laying it at a 45 degree angle provides a true consistent texture throughout the entire paddle face, maximizing spin potential. Players will feel a supreme amount of grit and spin immediately.

    POWER FLEX

    Our special Power Flex 14mm Core is crafted with precision to keep our core fully intact. The premium inner foam layer gives players premium pop on the court while also providing the paddle with structural integrity.

    SUPERIOR GRIP

    The C45 grip is made from a high-quality wrap that helps to reduce vibration. This grip provides a premium tacky feel while also providing proper absorption capabilities, giving players the strongest grasp possible.
