Customization Process
Step 1: Choose Paddle Size and Shape
USAPA standard compliant sizes available:
- 16.5" × 7.5" flat top - Ideal for attacking players, offers balanced control and stability
- 16" × 8" - Best for defensive players with superior ball control
- 16.5" × 7.5" fan-shaped top - Lower wind resistance, excellent for backhand attacks
Step 2: Select Materials
Material options include:
- Toray Carbon Fiber (Premium choice for professionals)
- Standard Carbon Fiber (T300-T1000 grades available)
- Fiberglass (Economy option for beginners)
Step 3: Pre-Forming Process
Foam is manually injected into carbon fiber and wrapped 360° to enhance sealing, rebound strength, and sweet spot size. The thermoformed handle provides exceptional sturdiness.
Step 4: Thermoforming
The pre-formed assembly is placed in aluminum molds and heated to approximately 130°C for 25 minutes, creating a unified paddle structure. Excess material is polished for smooth edges.
Step 5: Pattern Printing
Custom designs can be applied using:
- UV printing (preserves carbon fiber friction)
- Particle paint spraying (for larger designs)
Step 6: Edge and Grip Assembly
Final customization options include:
- Edge strip color and material
- Grip style, material, and color
- Custom logos and branding
