Raw Carbon Face technology

CRBN's biggest differentiating point. Conventional paddles apply a texture coating for spin on top of the carbon fiber, but CRBN utilizes the surface structure of the carbon fiber itself. A coating wears down with use, but because Raw Carbon has the material itself as the friction surface, spin performance is maintained over a long period.

Features of the Power Series

True to the name "Power," the paddle is designed with a wide sweet spot, giving high ball speed on drive shots. Meanwhile, the spin performance from the Raw Carbon Face is alive and well, delivering force on spin-type third-shot drops and serves too.

Differences Between the CRBN Series

  • CRBN 1X: Elongated shape. The most popular model
  • CRBN 2X: Square (wide-body) shape, control-focused
  • CRBN 3X: Hybrid shape, hand-speed-focused

Recommended for Players Like These

  • Those who value the durability of spin performance
  • An aggressive drive-plus-spin playing style
  • Those who want to reduce how often they replace paddles
