Building a Better Gen 4
We weren’t happy with the so-called “top-tier” Gen 4 paddles—too expensive, too top-heavy, and way too small of a sweet spot. We wanted something that hit harder, felt consistent on every swing, and didn’t cost $300+ just to compete. So, we built it ourselves. The result? The CORE PRO 4G—a paddle that delivers all the power you crave, with a massive sweet spot and elite balance that feels unreal in your hands.
Serious Power, No Trade-Offs
The 16mm hybrid Gen 4 core with 4mm cells is tuned for max pop and controlled feedback. You’ll feel that clean, solid pop every time you swing—heavy power without losing precision.
Sweet Spot for Days
Forget the tiny center zones of other paddles. The Foam Power Halo stretches the sweet spot edge to edge, so even your off-center shots stay dialed in. It’s one of the biggest, most forgiving hitting zones you’ll find—because every shot should feel like a winner.
Lightning-Fast Hands
We shifted the weight closer to your grip for faster resets and quicker hands at the net. No clunky, top-heavy lag—just smooth, lightning-fast reactions and total command when things heat up.
Spin That Bites
The T700 raw carbon fiber face grabs the ball like a pro’s paddle should. Rip topspin drives, slice dinks, and roll volleys that skid and kick. You’ll see the difference, and so will your opponents.
Rock-Solid Stability
Off-center hits? No problem. Reinforced torsion control keeps your paddle from twisting, so you stay accurate, stable, and confident—even under pressure.

Is it USAPA Approved?
Yes, the CORE PRO 4G is 100% USAPA approved and ready for sanctioned tournaments.
Is it good for Pros?
Absolutely -- this paddle was designed for serious players. We've seen it win against the other top paddles that cost $100 more. The 4G went through a year of development to ensure it would perform at the highest level.
Is it good for beginners?
Yes -- the huge sweet spot on the 4G makes it a great paddle for beginners, because every shot is more likely to connect well. Other high-power paddles usually suffer from a small sweet spot, meaning you have to hit the ball directly in the center of the paddle for good contact. We solved that problem.
Is the handle elongated?
Yes, the 4G features an elongated handle that works well for both one-handed or two-handed backhands.
What is Gen 4?
Gen 4 refers to the latest in core engineering technology, and these core types are known for high power and are preferred by many pros and tournament players.
