Gherkin
Wraith H
Hybrid16mmGen 3
The Gherkin Wraith H is a 16 mm hybrid pickleball paddle. It generates well above-average spin (67th percentile) with elite 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.
