\"\"<\/p>\n

Layer 1 \u2014 EPP Core<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Absorbs the main impact force on ball contact, delivering a solid, dense, stable feel and dampening vibration better than a traditional honeycomb core \u2014 this layer largely determines the paddle’s overall bounce and feel.<\/p>\n

Layer 2 \u2014 Square Perforations in the Mid-Core<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Reduces core mass, creates controlled elasticity, helps distribute force more evenly on contact, supports a softer feel, and expands the effective hitting area on the face.<\/p>\n

Layer 3 \u2014 ETP Layer<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Acts as an edge cushion, improving edge stability, reducing power loss on off-center hits, helping to expand the sweet spot, and giving the face a smoother, softer feel on contact.<\/p>\n

Layer 4 \u2014 Edge Foam (High-Density EVA Foam)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Fills the space around the rim, increasing stability and giving the paddle a more solid feel, expanding the sweet spot, reducing vibration and hollowness, and improving overall structural durability.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Materials & Construction: An EPP (Expanded Polypropylene) core combined with a square-perforated structure and an ETP (Expanded Thermoplastic Polyurethane) edge cushion layer.<\/p>\n

Key Features \/ Strengths:<\/strong> A solid, dense feel with strong vibration dampening; the square perforations create controlled elasticity; the ETP edge layer helps expand the sweet spot.<\/p>\n

Best For: <\/strong>Intermediate-to-advanced players seeking better overall feel rather than pure power or control alone.
\n
\nAdvantages Over Other Cores<\/strong>: A transitional step between the PP honeycomb family (Gen 3\/4) and the premium foam core line (EPP+ETP 03, Full EPP) \u2014 the EPP material delivers a noticeably different feel from a honeycomb structure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2517,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[39],"product_cat":[54],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-2521","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_brand-loi-tam-trung","product_cat-mid-range-core","first","instock","shipping-taxable","product-type-simple"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.nhanhmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/2521","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.nhanhmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.nhanhmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.nhanhmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2521"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.nhanhmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2517"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.nhanhmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2521"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.nhanhmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=2521"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.nhanhmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=2521"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.nhanhmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=2521"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
