THERE ARE TWO SIDES TO EVERY STORY ProXR Pickleball has combined its two most popular models - the Advantage (fiberglass) and the Signature (carbon fiber weave) - to create a pickleball paddle unlike any other. Players frequently say that they have to make sacrifices, feeling “boxed in” to a style of play dictated by the lack of versatility of their paddles. Players should not have to make sacrifices to fit into their paddle, they should have a paddle that fits all elements of their game. "The Story" is the first paddle to overcome compromise. The forehand features premium fiberglass, allowing players to rip drives and maximize their spin. The carbon fiber backhand allows for optimal touch and control at the net. With a patent pending XR-23 handle to add another layer of additional leverage, "The Story" is pickleball’s first ever triple-threat paddle. FEATURES & BENEFITS Optimized shape allows two-handed backhanders the ability to get their second hand fully on the paddle. A thicker honeycomb poly core allows for improved playability and even more control and consistency to players’ games. ProXR Pickleball paddles are made with the highest quality materials. ProXR Pickleball's patent pending XR-23 handle technology is scientifically developed to increase the connection between a player and their paddle, allowing players to create more spin, have better control and reload quicker at the net. Available in right-handed 14mm and 16mm thicknesses.
