JOOLA
The elongated paddle that made 'power with spin' a mainstream category. Big plow-through, a long handle for two-handed backhands, and a textured carbon face, now at a lower list price as JOOLA's newer generations arrive.
Franklin
Franklin's flagship carbon paddle: a T700 face with an angled peel-ply texture over a foam-perimeter polymer core, with a long handle and a published swingweight.
Six Zero
Six Zero's aramid-faced paddle: a Kevlar weave instead of carbon on a thermoformed hybrid frame, aimed at players who want maximum control with spin.
