Technologies

Kinetic Technology: When the opening movement is performed with the Kinetic racquet, the Kinetic Mass microspheres contained in the capsules inserted inside the frame are charged with kinetic energy. When the ball hits the strings, it becomes compressed and the strings bend.

Spiral Tech Carbon: Prokennex creates the new mixture of ProKennex Spiral Tech Carbon materials, the evolution of Graphite. It is a unique blend of Spiral Tech graphite layers and High ModulGra te Normaleus graphite that is applied to get the best performance from the frame.

Carbon Fire: A Revolutionary Paddle Face
Technology

At the core of Carbon Fire technology
lies a specially engineered carbon plate, subjected to a unique high-heat treatment process. This treatment not only bolsters the structural integrity of the paddle face but also creates a surface texture that maximizes ball friction.

Grit Levels at the Legal Limit: By
pushing the grit levels to the very edge of what's legally permissible in competitive play, Carbon Fire enables players to achieve an unmatched level of spin.

Pro Kennex's Patented Epoxy Resin
Systems:
Pro Kennex utilizes their patented modern epoxy resin systems to bond the carbon plate to the paddle's core, eliminating 'dead spots'. This ensures a uniform response across the entire paddle face, providing a consistent hitting experience.

These advanced materials and manufacturing techniques, allows the paddle face to withstand wear exceptionally well, preserving its spin capabilities and precision from day one to day 365, and beyond.

In the competitive realm of pickleball,
where every edge is crucial, Carbon Fire offers players a significant advantage. Its capacity to deliver consistent performance, unparalleled spin, and precision empowers players to perform complex plays with assurance, positioning Carbon Fire as a pivotal innovation in both professional and
amateur pickleball circuits.

Kinetic Comfort Cap: This advanced handle design contains inelastic microspheres, scientifically proven to absorb residual vibrations through Non-Obstructive Particle Damping (NOPD)—a technique borrowed from aerospace and heavy machinery.

Racquet Sense: Our Racquet Sense design analysis represents a sophisticated approach to paddle engineering, where we meticulously map every aspect of the paddle's profile to optimize dwell time,
enhance energy transfer, maintain maximum face stability, and increase resistance
to torque. This precision mapping ensures not only consistent and dependable
ball action.
