Starter Kit
In the box.
The OD-16 plus everything you'd grab at the pro shop before your first game.
The OD-16 has a raw T700 carbon face for spin and a 16mm honeycomb core for control. It's the same build you'd find on paddles that cost twice as much.
Most points are won with soft hands at the net. Everything about the OD-16 is tuned for that, with enough pop left over to put a ball away.
A gritty unidirectional carbon surface that grabs the ball, so dinks and rolls get real spin.
The thicker core soaks up pace, gives you a bigger sweet spot and keeps resets low.
16 by 7.3 inches. Extra reach and leverage without giving up much forgiveness.
Relative feel, not lab data
Big-brand carbon paddles run $200 to $280. A lot of that pays for sponsorships and retail markup. We sell direct from the factory to your door.
Every kit includes the OD-16. The Starter Kit adds what you'd buy at the pro shop anyway, for less.
The OD-16 plus everything you'd grab at the pro shop before your first game.
Cheap paddles go dead in months, and the ones the pros use cost $250. Here's what you actually need.
16mm for control and soft hands, 14mm for pop. Most players should start at 16.
Raw carbon grips the ball for spin. Painted fiberglass is cheaper and slicker.
