CRBN-2X Power Series Carbon Fiber Pickleball Paddle

More power is the name of the game with the CRBN-2X Power Series from CRBN Pickleball. Even though these are called the "Power Series," and they do offer up more power than CRBN's original lineup of CRBN-1 and CRBN-2 paddles, this is still a mostly control-oriented paddle which strikes a better balance on the "power vs. control" spectrum. This paddle boasts an 8" wide Toray carbon fiber face with a highly textured surface and 15.75" overall length. The 8 ounce weight, one-piece design, and injected-foam edge walls reduces energy loss, resulting in added power to your drives and slams. The enhanced sweet spot further increases control, and the grippy paddle face enables exceptional ball RPMs to deliver frustrating spin to your opponents.

For those unfamiliar with the CRBN paddle line, the CRBN-2X Power Series is a shorter and wider version of the CRBN-1X Power Series. Both are available in 14mm (0.55") and 16mm (0.63") thicknesses, and prioritize a control-focused play style, while leveraging new materials and manufacturing techniques to layer in a degree of power as the name suggests. The shorter and wider design of the CRBN-2X, however, combined with the 5" handle, foam-injected edges, and high-performance polypropylene honeycomb core, is able to create a giant sweet spot that offers unmatched control and feedback without sacrificing pop and power.

The CRBN-2X Power Series Carbon Fiber Paddle caters specifically to power players requiring a responsive paddle that can keep up with intense rallys and solid drives while providing feedback and placement like few others.

Actual grip sizes may vary up to 1/8"

    Love the paddle, but sick of delamination issues every 3-4 months.

    I used to play with a very thin, lightweight, and hard paddle before. When I tried the CRBN2X, I could immediately feel the extra power. I didn't have to swing as hard to get the same or even more power. Also, the CRBN2X feels "softer". When you hit the ball in the sweet-spot of the paddle, you feel a very soft and satisfying strike without any annoying vibrations. One unexpected side benefit is that my shoulder and elbow actually feel much better now as well. I was worried how long it would take me to adjust to this new paddle, but my serve, groundstrokes, smashes and volleys were terrific from the start. However, my dinking/soft game is taking a little while to tune. Lastly, the handle is a bit short in length; definitely not good for any two-handed backhanders. There are elongated versions of the paddle. Overall, I would highly recommend this paddle.

    Quality paddle, but not a lot of sweet spots and the ball hit soft, meaning I didn't feel the ball. Returned this item due to that reason.

    I got this as an incremental step up.from an amped Epic (which I loved as well). The X2 is the same shape, 2mm thinner, and has the raw carbon fiber. So far I have been crushing my drives and placement is intact. Also appreciate the 1 year warranty.

    I've changed paddles way more times then I care to admit and the CRBN 2X Is the first to actually deliver power,touch and spin...for real! Now I see the 3x is out,cant imagine it being better than the 2x ,should be fun to find out.
