Franklin
C45 Dynasty 16
The Franklin C45 Dynasty 16 is a 16 mm elongated pickleball paddle with a Carbon face. It generates above-average spin (59th percentile) with well above-average power and low pop. It has a heavier, head-leaning swing weight that favors power and plow-through over hand speed, but low twist weight, so off-center hits lose more pace. Overall it's a control-oriented profile that trades raw power for touch and placement.
