⭐ FOAM CORE SERIES — MODEL PP5

Premium Performance. Honest Engineering.

Featuring Ceramic Talon Fused Grit™ — Chemically Bonded for Long‑Lasting Spin

THE PP5 STORY

The Foam Core Series PP5 was engineered for players who want a paddle that feels smooth, solid, and controlled — without the hollow vibration of traditional honeycomb paddles. Built with the same advanced construction principles as our Limited Edition 250th Anniversary paddle, the PP5 delivers a refined playing experience rooted in engineering, not marketing.

Designed by a retired Fire Lieutenant/Paramedic, shaped by 16 years of pickleball experience, and informed by real‑player feedback as a Certified IPTPA Instructor, the PP5 reflects a mission to keep high‑quality equipment accessible to everyday players.

This paddle represents performance with integrity — premium materials, modern construction, and a price that respects the player.

MATERIALS & ENGINEERING

Ceramic Talon Fused Grit™ Surface (Patent Pending)

A proprietary surface technology that is chemically bonded into the crevasses around and between the carbon fibers, rather than sitting on top of the face where grit normally wears away.

• This is a structural bond, not a surface coating

• The ceramic grit becomes part of the carbon fiber itself

• Far more resistant to degradation than sprayed‑on or painted grit

• Delivers long‑lasting spin, ball bite, and consistency

This is the defining technology of the PP5 — engineered to last.

K60 3D 18K Carbon Fiber Face

A high‑strength, multi‑directional carbon weave engineered for consistent responsiveness, stability, and power.

• 18K tow bundles for structural strength

• 3D weave geometry for uniform ball contact

• K60 grade for durability and long‑term performance

Full EPP Foam Core + EVA Perimeter Foam

A solid, vibration‑reducing interior surrounded by EVA stability foam.

• Smooth, controlled feel

• Reduced vibration

• Edge‑to‑edge consistency

• No hollow honeycomb sound or dead spots

This core design creates a uniquely comfortable and confidence‑building playing experience.

Thermoformed Unibody Construction

Heat‑molded and pressure‑sealed for structural strength.

• Increased durability

• Improved torsional stability

• Enhanced power transfer

• Stronger edge protection

CUSTOM EDGE GUARD OPTIONS

Choose from three patriotic edge guard colors:

• Red Edge Guard

• White Edge Guard

• Blue Edge Guard

Each color option is paired with a matching throat ring for a clean, unified look.

These options allow players to personalize their paddle while maintaining the same premium construction and performance.

FOUNDER’S NOTE

“As a retired Fire Lieutenant/Paramedic and Certified IPTPA Instructor, I’ve spent years teaching players how to improve their game. I designed the PP5 to solve the problems I see most often — vibration, inconsistency, and overpriced equipment. Ceramic Talon Fused Grit™ is the breakthrough: it’s chemically bonded into the tiny crevasses between the carbon fibers, not laid on top. That means the texture doesn’t degrade the way traditional grit does. The PP5 delivers a smooth, controlled feel with modern engineering and honest pricing — now with red, white, and blue edge guards so players can choose the look that fits their style.”
