Built for the aggressive player who wants to hit through the court, the RPM Friction Pro 14MM Elongated Pickleball Paddle delivers explosive power, elite spin, and serious reach in one weaponized frame. Co-designed with pro player James Ignatowich, it blends CarbonBite surface texture with a Tri-Density Core to create a fast, connected feel that still keeps control when the pace gets wild. The elongated shape extends your coverage for high balls, counterattacks, and sharp finishing volleys—ideal for singles or high-intensity doubles.
At 14MM, this is the most power-forward build in the Friction Pro line, giving you quicker rebound speed and heavier drives without sacrificing maneuverability. Ryan Fu’s competition choice, it’s built for players who want to dictate, not react.
