CORE PRO 4G Beast Edition

Yes. The PRO 4G is USAPA Pro Tournament Approved. It meets all rigorous standards for surface friction, core material, and dimensions, making it legal for all sanctioned competitive and professional play.

The PRO 4G is designed with a professional-grade weight (approx. 8.0 oz) to provide the stability and "plow-through" needed for high-level play. However, because we utilized elite balance engineering to move the center of mass toward the handle, it feels much lighter in the hand than standard heavy paddles. You get the power of a heavy paddle with the lightning-fast hand speed of a light one.

It is engineered to be both. Most paddles force you to choose between a thin "power" core or a thick "control" core. The PRO 4G uses a 16mm hybrid Gen 4 core with 8mm cells. This provides the plush, controlled feel needed for soft dinks and resets, while our cold-pressed construction delivers massive "pop" and heavy power on drives and overheads.

The PRO 4G paddle is built for high-frequency, competitive play. The Raw UD T700 carbon fiber surface is exceptionally durable, and our cold-pressed core resists the "deadening" common in cheaper paddles. To maintain the high-grit performance, we recommend using a rubber cleaning block to remove ball plastic residue from the face.

Found exclusively in our PRO 4G, the Foam Power Halo is an injected foam perimeter that runs along the edge of the paddle. Traditional paddles often feel "dead" or vibrate when you hit the ball near the edge. The foam injection adds weight to the perimeter, stretching the sweet spot from edge to edge and increasing stability on off-center hits. We injected a specialized foam perimeter around the core to eliminate the "dead zones" found in traditional paddles. This Power Halo stretches the sweet spot from edge to edge, ensuring that even off-center shots feel solid and stay on target.

Yes. If you are looking for the best carbon fiber pickleball paddle that balances high-end power with elite reset capabilities, the PRO 4G is the top choice. Its T700 surface and foam-injected perimeter provide the aggressive spin and massive sweet spot required for 4.0+ competitive play.

The biggest complaint about traditional Agassi-style tapered paddles is that they often feel "sledgehammer-heavy," making them slow to react at the net. We solved this by using a Cold-Pressed 16mm Honeycomb Core and a high-strength, lightweight T700 Carbon Fiber face. This allows us to maintain the aerodynamic "Reverse Teardrop" shape while shifting the center of gravity closer to the handle. You get the aggressive "whip" and power of a tapered paddle without the clunky, top-heavy fatigue that usually comes with it.

Yes. Many elongated paddles feel "long and slow" because their weight is distributed evenly across a rectangular surface. Because the PRO 4G tapers at the bottom, we’ve effectively removed "dead weight" from the neck. This creates Elite Balance, giving you a paddle that feels light in your hands for defensive resets but retains enough mass at the top to crush overheads and drives.

Exactly. Many tennis-style paddles have extremely long handles that can make the paddle feel unwieldy. The PRO 4G uses a semi-elongated handle, which is the "Goldilocks" length. It is long enough for a powerful two-handed backhand but short enough to keep the balance point retracted toward your palm. This prevents the "lever effect" that causes wrist strain and ensures your hand speed stays elite during kitchen firefights.
