CRBN | A paddle-specialist brand of Raw Carbon technology

CRBNis a pickleball-paddle-specialist brand founded in 2020 in California (Southern California) by Garrett Gosselin and others. Known for its proprietary "Raw Carbon Face" technology, it's an innovative maker leading the industry with sustained high spin performance that doesn't rely on coatings.

Raw Carbon Face technology

CRBN's biggest differentiator. Conventional paddles apply a spin texture coating on top of the carbon fiber, but CRBN leverages the surface structure of the T700 carbon fiber itself. Coatings wear down with use, but because Raw Carbon has the material itself as the friction surface, spin performance is maintained over a long period.
