RPM
Friction Pro
The RPM Friction Pro is a 16 mm elongated pickleball paddle with a thermoformed, Carbon Fiber face. It generates well above-average spin (77th percentile) with elite power and pop. It has a mid-range swing weight that balances power and maneuverability, but below-average twist weight, so off-center hits lose more pace. Overall it's an aggressive, high-firepower build for players chasing put-away power.
