CRBN-2 TruFoam Genesis (Square) Pickleball Paddle

The TruFoam Genesis 2 Pickleball Paddle and the two other paddles in the series (Genesis 1, Genesis 3) are CRBN’s first standardized "Gen-4" paddle, bringing pickleball into the next generation with the introduction of the TruFoam core. This core replaces the time-consuming break-in period and annoying crushing of a polypropylene honeycomb core, relying instead on a durable, high-density foam core. This new technology is easily optimized from a performance standpoint, allowing the balance point, pop, plow-through sweet spot, and soft feel to be perfected without altering the core's thickness.

With this new core technology, the 40.6cm CRBN TF Genesis 2 Pickleball Paddle offers the familiar standard shape and more power than the X series, but is designed to enhance all aspects of our game, rather than just increasing power. Unsurprisingly, this balanced performance is made possible by the interplay of the TruFoam core with the 19.9cm wide T700 Raw Carbon hitting surface. Sure, the surface is as stiff and naturally textured as ever, but it now works with the new core to provide a tennis-racket-like response that increases dwell time and RPMs for some of the crispest and most precise control shots we've ever been able to hit. The 12.7cm long handle completes this anything-but-standard package by keeping our hand close to the sweet spot and ready to reload.
