Designed for serious competitors and aspiring pros Combines explosive power with confident control and touch Engineered with Six Zero’s most advanced paddle innovations Built for tournament and high-performance recreational play Diamond Tough infused surface for extended texture life G4 Aerospace Solid Foam Core At the heart of the Black Opal is our proprietary G4 Aerospace Foam Core, a floating solid construction that optimizes energy transfer and creates a highly responsive sweet spot. The 14mm high-density design delivers fast hands and increased power while maintaining the same control you’d expect from a traditional 16mm paddle, giving you the best of both worlds. Power Gel: Explosive Energy Layer The Black Opal features our patent-pending Power Gel layer, engineered to amplify shot energy without compromising touch. This breakthrough design maximizes pop, adds depth to drives, and enhances precision at the net, giving you the edge in every exchange. Shock Shield Handle Technology With every swing, Shock Shield technology absorbs vibration and enhances feedback. This silicone injection system is built directly into the handle, reducing arm fatigue and helping you stay connected to the ball with greater comfort and confidence.
