C45 Hybrid 14mm

Hybrid14mmGen-3Thermoformed

The Franklin C45 Hybrid 14mm is a 14 mm hybrid pickleball paddle with a thermoformed, T700 Carbon Fiber face. It generates well above-average spin (72th percentile) with low power and above-average pop. It has a light, maneuverable swing weight built for quick hands at the net, but low twist weight, so off-center hits lose more pace. Overall it's a versatile all-court profile.
