CRBN TruFoam Genesis

Yes, the TruFoam core provides a more solid, dampened feel at impact compared to traditional honeycomb structures. Because it is a solid material rather than a hollow grid, you will notice less vibration and a more consistent response across the entire face of the paddle.

Most paddles with honeycomb cores soften up or change their playing characteristics after a few weeks of use. The TruFoam Genesis is engineered to play exactly the same way on day one as it will months later, so you do not need to adjust your game as the paddle ages.

The hybrid shape is designed to balance aerodynamics and surface area. It is slightly more streamlined than a traditional wide-body paddle, which helps you increase your swing speed for faster exchanges at the net without sacrificing the sweet spot size.

Yes, the CRBN TruFoam Genesis is USAPA approved. The raw T700 carbon fiber surface provides the texture required for high-level spin while remaining within the legal limits set by the association.

At 8.15 ounces, this paddle falls into the mid-weight category, which is generally considered the 'sweet spot' for most players. It provides enough mass to generate power on drives while remaining maneuverable enough for quick hands battles at the kitchen line.

The edge guard is omitted to improve aerodynamics and maximize the hitting surface, but the paddle is constructed to be durable. However, like any edge-guardless paddle, it is more susceptible to surface chips if you frequently scrape the ground during low volleys.
