Ideal for players who are primarily looking for power, with a complementing sweet spot and increased stability. All models feature our Carbon Fiber Stability System (CFS). CFS is a carbon fiber weave that wraps the entire throat of the paddle, giving it added stability and increased shock reduction without adding any weight.The SHIËLD C40, the pro model, a long-time favorite of tournament and league players alike, features an oversized hitting surface and a C40 (formerly Mid+) core density, the highest available for platform tennis paddles.
