Franklin C45° Parris Todd Edition

Franklin Sports continues to raise the bar in pickleball while working directly with pros. Franklin worked hand in hand with Parris Todd to curate her own signature C45° paddle.

With a 13.25mm thick PowerFlex polymer core, this pro-design paddle features an elongated 5.7" inch handle with 4.15" inch handle circumference (weight range 7.6 - 7.9oz).

The Parris Todd C45° is an elongated pickleball paddle that offers a multitude of different technologies, giving players a combination of supreme control and full power on the court. The C45° is constructed with a double-thermoformed unibody frame. This process is exceptional because it helps to fully enhance the structural integrity of the paddle while reducing vibration to a degree that sets it apart from competitor paddles.

Each paddle is constructed with a large inner foam channel that allows the C45° to stay structurally sound while also keeping the polymer core intact to preserve long-lasting premium performance!

Players will feel the incredible pop coming from the paddle but also feel fully in control. The carbon fiber surface layer is applied as a 45 degree peel ply texture which provides a superior amount of grit and spin right off the surface, giving players an incredible amount of power and speed right off the paddle. This process maximizes grip and unlocks spin potential so players can control the additional core power without sacrificing precision.  

• UNRIVALED STRENGTH: Constructed using a double thermoforming process designed to maximize the integrity of the paddle by enhancing the structure — not once, but twice — which increases the strength of the unibody design and helps to reduce vibration

• 45 DEGREE CARBON SURFACE: The T700 Carbon Fiber peel ply texture is applied at a 45° degree angle to provide a natural, consistent texture throughout the entire paddle face, which maximizes grit and spin potential and allows players to increase shot precision and control

• POWERFLEX CORE : Our special PowerFlex 14mm polymer core is crafted with premium precision and an inner foam layer that gives players extra pop on their shots while also providing the paddle with additional structural integrity

• SUPERIOR GRIP: The C45° grip is made from a high-quality wrap designed with proper absorption capabilities and a premium tacky grip to greatly reduce paddle vibration and ensure that players maintain the strongest grasp possible

• USAP/UPA APPROVED: Approved by both USA Pickleball and the United Pickleball Association for competitive play. Overall Specs: 16.3" inches (L) x 7.5" inches (W) – 5.7" inch handle length – 4.15" inch handle circumference  - Elongated Shape - 13.25mm thick core
