Innovative 45-degree carbon weave technology generates elite ball spin, while a balanced hybrid design delivers an enlarged sweet spot with optimal control and dynamic power.

The Franklin C45 Hybrid 14mm Pickleball Paddle is designed to provide a balanced combination of power, control, and spin for competitive all court play. Its hybrid shape pairs a versatile hitting surface with an elongated 5.7 inch handle, offering added reach and support for two handed backhands while maintaining quick maneuverability during fast exchanges.

Constructed with a double thermoformed unibody frame, the C45 Hybrid is engineered to strengthen the paddle structure while helping reduce vibration for a more stable and responsive feel on contact. A large internal foam channel reinforces the paddle while preserving the integrity of the 14mm Power Flex polymer core, helping maintain long lasting consistency and reliable pop throughout play.

The T700 carbon fiber face features a 45 degree peel ply texture designed to maximize grit and spin potential across the entire paddle surface. This textured construction helps players generate increased spin and shot precision while maintaining control during aggressive swings and fast paced rallies.

Finished with a tacky, moisture absorbing grip for added comfort and stability, the C45 Hybrid 14mm is approved by both USA Pickleball and the United Pickleball Association for tournament play.
