Premium build. Not a premium price.
T700 carbon fiber face, an EPP foam core wrapped in EVA, and thermoformed construction. 16mm thick. Elongated shape. It's the same type of build you'll find in premium foam paddles that sell for over $300. The Lightning Strike gives you all of it for $130.
All foam. All power. The Lightning Strike is our biggest hitter: a T700 carbon fiber face over a 16mm all-foam core, in an elongated shape built for reach and big drives.
You've got the swing. This paddle gives it somewhere to go.
Most paddles are built around a plastic honeycomb. The Lightning Strike is foam all the way through, with an EPP foam core wrapped in EVA. That means more pop when you swing out, a sweet spot that stretches closer to the edges, and a solid, connected feel on every hit.
The T700 carbon fiber face grabs the ball, so your drives dip, your serves kick and your rolls stay low. And at 16mm thick, it still settles down when you need it to. Resets, drops and dinks land soft.
