All Astria paddles are designed with performance-enhancing features, a sleek and modern design, and lightweight construction, however, the long paddle handle of the SS Aero, the longest of the series, provides a comfortable and secure two-handed grip which is crucial for delivering powerful backhand shots. In addition, the aerodynamic design of the paddle head is specifically engineered to provide exceptional speed and maneuverability, while reducing strain on the elbow. Finally, the longer paddle surface provides that little bit of extra spin for those looking for an added boost.
