Tour Dynasty
Elongated16mmGen-2Thermoformed
The Franklin Tour Dynasty is a 16 mm elongated pickleball paddle with a thermoformed, T700 Carbon Fiber face. It generates above-average spin (62th percentile) with above-average power and low pop. It has a heavier, head-leaning swing weight that favors power and plow-through over hand speed, plus elite twist weight for strong off-center forgiveness. Overall it's a control-oriented profile that trades raw power for touch and placement.
