The Quanta Pro R3.16 is a 4th-generation pickleball paddle designed for players looking for more power, reach, stability, and spin. Its 16.5 × 7.5 in. elongated shape provides additional reach and a profile well suited for players who like to play with depth and aggression.
The Quanta Pro R3.16 features a lightweight EPP foam core with an EVA elastomer ring. This combination is designed to optimize power and pop, while helping absorb vibrations at impact for a more comfortable feel.
The paddle also incorporates a perimeter-weighting system, designed to increase head stability on off-center shots. Its reinforced throat construction further enhances the overall stability and durability of the paddle.
Its raw textured carbon fiber surface with NanoBond™ technology uses an advanced bonding process at the nanoscale. This technology creates a wear-resistant bonding network within the carbon fiber matrix, designed to provide long-lasting spin and excellent ball interaction.
The thin carbon-wrapped edge helps create a spring-like effect that promotes power and responsiveness. The carbon-wrapped EPP handle enhances control and feel, while the elastomer insert helps reduce vibrations.
With its elongated shape, the R3.16 also provides increased reach, which can be particularly beneficial for returns, baseline shots, and reaching difficult balls.
The Quanta Pro R3.16 is an excellent choice for players looking for a powerful, stable, and responsive paddle, with added reach and excellent spin potential.
