RPM Friction Pro 16mm V2 Elongated Pickleball Paddle
The RPM Friction Pro 16MM Elongated V2 combines elite power with enhanced stability and control. Featuring RPM’s new Axial Carbon Layup and upgraded EVA foam perimeter ring, this paddle expands the sweet spot while maintaining exceptional consistency across the face.
The thicker 16mm Tri-Density Core increases dwell time and shock absorption, giving players more control on resets, blocks, and defensive exchanges—without sacrificing top-end power. The elongated 41.9 cm frame delivers added reach for overheads and singles play, while maintaining a stable, connected feel through contact.
Designed for competitive players who want controllable power, heavy spin, and tournament-ready performance, the 16mm V2 offers a refined balance between aggression and precision.
