Black Ace 16: Power, Control, and Innovation in One Package With the Black Ace 16, power doesn't come at the expense of control; it's the harmonious blend of both. From aggressive baseline play to finesse at the kitchen line, this paddle adapts to delivers in the moment. Dynamic Twist System a feature in all new Black Ace models, is a game-changer. By stabilizing the paddle face during play control is enhanced but while famously protecting your arm from the rigors of heavy play, allowing for longer play and faster recovery. Unleash the full spectrum of spin with the Carbon Fire face technology. This cutting-edge feature isn't just about adding spin; it's about controlling it, manipulating it to your advantage. Weight: 7.9 ozGrip: 4-in TaperHandle Length: 5.3-inchesPaddle Length: 16-inchesPaddle Width: 8-inchesPaddle Face: Carbon FireCore Material: Polypropylene HoneycombCore Thickness: 16mm (.629") 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 hi ts 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 FaceTechnology At the core of Carbon Fire technologylies 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: Bypushing 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 ResinSystems: 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 andamateur 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 analysisrepresents a sophisticated approach to paddle engineering, where wemeticulously map every aspect of the paddle's profile to optimize dwell time,enhance energy transfer, maintain maximum face stability, and increase resistanceto torque. This precision mapping ensures not only consistent and dependableball action.
