Materials & Construction: Built on the Gen 3 foundation (PP honeycomb + EVA + edge foam), with a thicker EVA layer around the paddle’s edge.
Key Features / Strengths: A wider sweet spot, with improved softness and edge stability compared to standard Gen 3, reducing power loss on off-center hits near the rim.
Best For: Intermediate players who want more stability than the original Gen 3 without stepping all the way up to Gen 4.
Advantages Over Other Cores: Directly addresses Gen 3’s most common weak point (the edge) without changing the entire core structure — a lower-cost upgrade than moving to an entirely new core generation.
Select the elements you want to customize
Layer 1 — PP Honeycomb Core
The primary core material found in most traditional pickleball paddles, reducing paddle weight, delivering stable bounce, and giving an easy-to-control feel — while remaining durable enough for repeated impact at a basic level.
Layer 2 — Thicker EVA (vs. Standard Gen 3): Edge Reinforcement
Acts as a supportive ring and edge cushion, further expanding the sweet spot and reducing power loss on off-center hits, while improving softness and stability around the paddle’s edge beyond standard Gen 3.
Layer 3 — Edge Foam
Holds the entire core together as a more unified structure, protects the core’s edge, increases structural strength and durability, and helps resist deformation at the rim.
