Diadem Warrior V1 Carbon Fiber Paddle offers a 19mm (.748") thick core--the thickest of the pickleball market. It is composed of 3 layers, including Nomex and Polypropylene, and topped with Grit Paint for enhanced spin. Despite the thick core, the paddle features a comfortable 4-1/8" circumference handle, and weighs 8.5 oz. with a 5" handle length. Its carbon fiber face offers more responsive performance, while the paddle's Taper Tech keeps the grip size manageable. At 16.4" long, the Warrior offers easy reaching and court coverage. Actual grip sizes may vary up to 1/8".
