Franklin

C45 Hybrid

The Franklin C45 Hybrid is a 14 mm hybrid pickleball paddle with a Carbon face. It generates low spin (34th percentile) with low power and 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 control-oriented profile that trades raw power for touch and placement.
