Synergy Pickleball ELEVATE Control Paddle

The 16mm thickness is designed for control and stability. It absorbs more energy from the ball upon impact, which helps dampen vibrations and gives you a softer, more predictable feel during dinks and resets.

While the elongated shape offers an extended reach that is great for covering the court, it does shift the sweet spot slightly higher on the paddle face. If you are new to the sport, you may need a few sessions to adjust your swing, but the added reach is a significant advantage once you get comfortable.

This surface texture is intentionally rough, which grips the ball more effectively upon contact. This allows you to generate more spin on your serves and drives compared to a smooth-faced paddle.

Lead tapes allow you to customize the weight and balance of your paddle. You can apply them to the edges to add stability, increase the swing weight for more power, or shift the balance point to better suit your specific playing style.

At 8.35 oz, this paddle sits in the mid-to-heavyweight category. This extra mass provides more plow-through power on overheads and volleys, making it a solid choice for players who want a balance of stability and power without feeling too heavy in the hand.

Yes, it expands the effective sweet spot toward the edges of the paddle. This means you will experience fewer 'dead' shots and more consistent performance even when you don't hit the ball perfectly in the center.
