Träffytan kombinerar rå Toray T700-kolfiber med glasfiberförstärkning; kärnan är helt i skum utan polypropen-honeycomb. USA Pickleball anger EPP-skum, medan CRBN beskriver en egen högdensitetsblandning. Den exakta polymerkemin är inte offentlig. Tillverkarens siffror är medelvärden och oberoende mätningar gäller ett exemplar. Båda behövs eftersom statisk vikt inte ensam förklarar svingvikten. CRBN anger 8,0 ± 0,2 oz (227 ± 6 g), balans 246 mm, vridvikt 5,75 och svingvikt 118–120. Det oberoende exemplaret mätte 8,24 oz (234 g), 24,6 cm, 6,0 och 123,25.

En långtidsjämförelse mellan ett välanvänt och ett nytt, liknande viktat exemplar visade ingen dramatisk förändring i kraft eller pop.

CRBN¹ produces a dense, satisfying response around the central fiberglass-reinforced zone, but the usable area narrows more quickly toward the sides and lower face than the premium price suggests. Independent twist-weight results around 5.6–6.0 are consistent with that behavior. Clean center contact receives good pace and direction; contact closer to the frame loses energy and can rotate the face.",

A current independent sample produced a 60.0 mph serve and a 38.3 mph punch volley, while another measurement set placed the shape high in its power distribution but lower in pop. That distinction matches the mechanics: the paddle rewards acceleration and body rotation, whereas compact contacts do not explode off the face like a dedicated high-pop power paddle. Overall, it sits in the all-court category rather than at either extreme.",

CRBN¹ produces a dense, satisfying response around the central fiberglass-reinforced zone, but the usable area narrows more quickly toward the sides and lower face than the premium price suggests. Independent twist-weight results around 5.6–6.0 are consistent with that behavior. Clean center contact receives good pace and direction; contact closer to the frame loses energy and can rotate the face."

A current independent sample produced a 60.0 mph serve and a 38.3 mph punch volley, while another measurement set placed the shape high in its power distribution but lower in pop. That distinction matches the mechanics: the paddle rewards acceleration and body rotation, whereas compact contacts do not explode off the face like a dedicated high-pop power paddle. Overall, it sits in the all-court category rather than at either extreme."
