Viva Pro Gen2
Elongated16mmGen-2Thermoformed
The Hudef Viva Pro Gen2 is a 16 mm elongated pickleball paddle with a thermoformed, T700 Carbon Fiber face. It generates low spin (31th percentile) with below-average power and low 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.
