Hudef
Viva Pro Gen 3
Elongated16mmGen 2
The Hudef Viva Pro Gen 3 is a 16 mm elongated pickleball paddle. It generates average spin with average power and pop. It has a heavier, head-leaning swing weight that favors power and plow-through over hand speed, but low twist weight, so off-center hits lose more pace.
