Proton
Series One-Type A
Widebody15mmGen-1Cold Pressed
The Proton Series One-Type A is a 15 mm widebody pickleball paddle with a cold pressed, Carbon Fiber face. It generates elite spin (88th percentile) with low power and below-average pop. It has a heavier, head-leaning swing weight that favors power and plow-through over hand speed, plus elite twist weight for strong off-center forgiveness. Overall it's a control-oriented profile that trades raw power for touch and placement.
