Armour HELIO Composite Performance Paddle
The HELIO Composite Performance Paddle generates impressive power without an unwieldy weight. The design is slightly elongated so that players can enjoy extra reach yet the width is broad enough to offer an ample sweet spot. The Helio Composite has a thicker core which dampens impact during defensive play yet also creates a consistent and reactive feel for more aggressive maneuvers. It offers a great balance that can handle both gentle dinks and powerful drives.The HELIO Composite Performance Paddle weighs 7.7 - 7.9 oz and has a medium grip circumference. The handle is 4-½" long and comes wrapped in a perforated grip which prevents sweat from building up and affecting the security of your grasp. The additional cushioning feels pleasant while protecting from jostling. The 16mm polymer core is forgiving and easy to use for all skill levels thanks to its soft touch and durable construction.
The HELIO Composite Performance Paddle can accommodate many different styles while making it easier to improve strength and precision.
Actual grip sizes may vary up to 1/8".
Reviews of the Helio Performance Composite Paddle by Pickleball Central Staff:
"The Helio Composite from Armour is a quality addition to the thick core/fiberglass paddle class. What it adds is the unique shape. The reverse teardrop gives the paddle some interesting aerodynamic properties that allow you to move quickly to balls. It is a midweight paddle (7.7-7.9 oz) that has the weight to put some power behind your shots and ensure the put-away shots get put away. The grip, like other thick core paddles, is a bit larger but still comfortable (not too boxy). The performance of the Helio is comparable to paddles in the same price range. Steve Wong has done a great job with his paddle launch."
