Proton

Series One-Type A

Widebody11mmGen-1Cold Pressed

The Proton Series One-Type A is a 11 mm widebody pickleball paddle with a cold pressed, Carbon Fiber face. It generates below-average spin (43th percentile) with low power and below-average pop. It has a mid-range swing weight that balances power and maneuverability, plus well above-average twist weight for strong off-center forgiveness. Overall it's a control-oriented profile that trades raw power for touch and placement.
