The Aramid Fiber face, specifically DuPont Kevlar, is denser than traditional carbon fiber. This construction provides a noticeable increase in 'pop' off the face, allowing for more aggressive drives while maintaining the durability needed for competitive play.

The Aero Hybrid Plus shape is designed to bridge the gap between elongated power paddles and standard control shapes. It offers the reach and leverage of a longer paddle while retaining the maneuverability and stability typically found in wider, more traditional shapes.

The 14mm core is generally better for players who prioritize power and hand speed, while the 16mm core offers a softer feel and increased dwell time, which is ideal for players who focus on control and touch shots.
