Gamma
RCF-Obsidian 16
The Gamma RCF-Obsidian 16 is a 16 mm elongated pickleball paddle with a Carbon face. It generates low spin (7th percentile) with low power and pop. It has a heavier, head-leaning swing weight that favors power and plow-through over hand speed, plus above-average twist weight for strong off-center forgiveness. Overall it's a control-oriented profile that trades raw power for touch and placement.
