The Response Pro Paddle brings an innovative shape to the world of pickleball with its highly rounded design. This creates an exceptionally large sweet spot with a gentle touch that will keep your hold on the paddle firm. A thick polymer core (9/16") generates high amounts of power in every swing while still making it easy to control pickleballs' speed and direction. Launched in 2018 and updated in 2020, this paddle is used by the #1 Ranked Simone Jardim. She is a 2 Time US Open Triple Crown winner, 9 time us open Gold Medalist, and 7 time National Champion. She worked closely with the team at Prince to design the newest update in the fall of 2020, releasing five new designs including three Simone signature editions (black, blue and pink designs also feature Simone's Signature).
The Response Pro Paddle has a 8-1/4" width and a slim edge guard to provide a large amount of usable space. This paddle has one of the largest ever sweet spots - consistent in performance across face of the paddle side to side, and tip too close to the neck. The handle is 5-1/2" long, allowing for impressive reach and plenty of space for players' hands regardless of size, and works well for those players that use a two handed backhand (like Simone). The paddle can be ordered in multiple weight ranges to best complement your play style. The face features a large "P" for Prince overlaid on a subtle zigzag background.
The Response Pro Paddle's broad face gives players ample opportunity to return any shot with a high amount of pop, control and speed.
Please note: Black, Blue and Red versions feature Simone Jardim's signature in this design, Seafoam does not have signature.
