PDS Pro Thermo 16

A one-piece thermoformed body with foam-filled edges: more stable on off-centre hits, more power and heavy spin. Built for tournament players who want the most from their paddle. Thermoformed paddles need about 5–15 hours of play to break in and may gain some pop during that time.
