Phoenix: An Elongated Carbon Pickleball Paddle Built for Spin and Reach

The Phoenix is an elongated carbon fiber pickleball paddle with a high-friction carbon face, a 16 mm core and a striking gold phoenix design over black. It’s made for players who want extra spin, extra reach and a paddle that stands out, in four gradient colours — orange, pink, blue and green.

Where the spin comes from

Spin is generated by texture, not marketing. The Phoenix uses a matte carbon face with a genuine high-friction surface that grips the ball a fraction longer on contact, so you get controllable topspin on drives and real bite on slice, rolls and third-shot drops. The matte look is raw carbon texture, not a painted coat that would wear smooth.

Elongated shape, 16 mm core

At 420 mm long the elongated shape adds reach and leverage — useful at the kitchen line and for putting pace and spin on serves and drives. The 16 mm polymer honeycomb core keeps the paddle stable and widens the sweet spot for dinks and resets, while the medium 220 g (±10 g) weight stays quick in fast exchanges. A protective edge guard reinforces the rim against mishits.

Four gradient colourways

Every Phoenix shares the same black carbon face, gold phoenix-and-cloud artwork and white grip; only the gradient edge changes. Pick orange, pink, blue or green — bright enough to spot instantly in a shared bag.

What’s included

Phoenix paddle FAQ

Is it real carbon fiber?

Yes — the hitting surface is a genuine carbon-fibre face with a raw high-friction texture, which is what produces the spin and durability.

Is an elongated paddle better?

An elongated shape adds reach and leverage for spin and power, with a slightly narrower sweet spot. It rewards clean contact and suits players with solid control; beginners often prefer a standard shape.

What size and weight is it?

It measures 420 mm long by 190 mm wide, 16 mm thick, with a 140 mm handle and a 108 mm grip circumference, at about 220 g (±10 g).

What comes with the paddle?

The Phoenix paddle plus two protective grip tapes for the handle.
