The CORE Reaction Pro Pickleball Paddle incorporates the renowned T700 carbon fiber surface. Complementing this surface is a honeycomb polypropylene core, ensuring an exceptional playing experience. Carbon fiber is the ideal material choice for paddle construction, offering unparalleled spin generation, an expansive sweet spot, and unwavering consistency. It leverages top-tier compression rates to strike the perfect equilibrium between power and control.
Weighing in at an average of 7.8-8.1 ounces, the CORE Reaction Pro enhances paddle stability, enabling confident blocks and returns against powerful shots. This paddle model features a slightly shorter handle and a wider face resulting in an extended sweet spot width rather than length.

Core T700 paddle
Great. Customer service was fantastic. Would highly recommend.
United StatesI'm not an expert but I know what I like
I have to preface this review saying that as a low intermediate pickleballer, I don't think my technique is quite refined enough to notice the intricacies around things like grit, balance, etc... BUT I know that I love this paddle. Prior to this paddle, I was primarily playing with a very good paddle by one of the big names out there. It's an excellent paddle that did everything I asked of it. I didn't need a new one, but I bought this Core Reaction Pro (16mm) purely out of curiosity on a very good sale. The first thing I noticed when I went between the two paddles was they felt similar (which is a good thing). Comfortable weight, good feeling in the hand. The only difference I can notice at my level is a fun one - this paddle definitely has more pop! I wouldn't say there's functionally more power because I haven't tested it, but the sound is certainly louder and that's nice. I have since played with this paddle alongside other highly regarded paddles and my impressions stand. This is a good one that belongs in the conversation with any quality paddle out there. While I didn't pay full price for this, knowing what I know now, I think it's definitely worth it even if there's no sale.

FAQ's
What makes this the best widebody pickleball paddle for stability?
The Reaction Pro is widely considered the best widebody pickleball paddle because it prioritizes a massive horizontal sweet spot. By increasing the width of the face, it provides the most stable platform for blocking fast drives and reducing unforced errors at the kitchen line.
What is the benefit of the Wide-Body shape on the Reaction Pro?
The Reaction Pro features a shorter handle and a wider face, which specifically extends the sweet spot width. This design provides maximum surface area and stability, making it significantly easier to block hard drives and stay consistent during fast "firefights" at the kitchen line.
Is the Reaction Pro a power paddle or a control paddle?
It is designed for the perfect equilibrium. By utilizing high-tier compression rates within its 16mm honeycomb polypropylene core, it offers a plush feel for controlled dinks while maintaining enough "pop" for put-away power. It is an ideal "all-around" paddle for players who prioritize stability and fewer unforced errors.
How does the T700 UD Carbon Fiber surface compare to the PRO 4G?
The Reaction Pro uses high-quality UD carbon fiber to provide excellent spin and unwavering consistency. While the PRO 4G features our ultra-premium "Raw" surface for maximum RPMs, the Reaction Pro offers a slightly smoother, highly reliable grit that is perfect for intermediate players who want a balance of spin and a soft, consistent touch.
Is the CORE Reaction Pro USAPA approved?
Yes. The Reaction Pro is fully USAPA Approved for all sanctioned tournament play. It meets all professional standards for core construction, surface friction, and dimensions.
How long should I expect the Reaction Pro to last?
Because of its wide-body architecture and honeycomb core, this paddle is built for long-term durability. The carbon fiber surface is integrated to resist wear, ensuring your sweet spot remains consistent for hundreds of matches.
Does this paddle help with "miss-hits"?
Yes! Because the face is wider than standard paddles, the "forgiveness zone" is much larger. This makes it the best choice for players who want to reduce the number of balls hit off the edge of the paddle.
Does the paddle include a cover?
Yes! Every Reaction Pro comes with a bonus paddle cover to keep your carbon fiber surface protected from dirt and scratches between games.
What is the return policy and satisfaction guarantee?
We offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee and a 3-month warranty against manufacturing defects. For a full refund (on orders discounted 10% or less), simply email customercare@coreathletics.com within 30 days.
