13mm Optimised Core for Power and Touch
At the heart of this paddle lies a 13mm polypropylene honeycomb core that strikes the ideal balance between power generation and shot control. The honeycomb structure absorbs impact vibrations, making every shot feel smooth and comfortable on your arm. Unlike thinner cores that prioritise raw power, this 13mm thickness offers a forgiving sweet spot that helps beginners and intermediate players connect cleanly even on off-centre hits.
Core Benefits
- Efficient energy transfer for powerful drives
- Vibration dampening for comfortable play
- Expanded sweet spot for consistent shots
- Balanced feel for versatile performance
SpinOn Fiberglass Surface for Controlled Shots
The hitting surface features HEAD’s SpinOn coated fiberglass that combines durability with excellent ball grip. This fiberglass pickleball paddle face allows you to generate spin on serves and returns without swinging excessively hard. The textured surface catches the ball momentarily, giving you more control over shot placement. Fiberglass also provides a softer, more forgiving feel compared to carbon fibre – perfect for players still developing their technique.
Surface Advantages
- SpinOn texture for enhanced ball grip
- Soft, controlled feel on contact
- Durable construction for long-lasting performance
- Forgiving on mishits for learning players
Extended Shape for Extra Reach
The Boom Team EX features an elongated 16.5-inch design that gives you valuable extra reach on the court. This extended shape helps you get to wide shots, return tricky dinks around the net, and punish high balls with powerful overhead slams. The longer paddle also increases swing speed, translating to more power with less effort – a key advantage when rallies get intense.
Shape Benefits
- Extended reach for difficult returns
- Increased swing speed for powerful shots
- Better net coverage in doubles play
- Versatile for singles and doubles
