Franklin C45° Carbon Fibre Hybrid 14mm Pickleball Paddle (Blue)

The Franklin C45 Carbon Fiber Pickleball Paddle – 14mm Hybrid (Blue) is designed for players who want a fast, responsive paddle with excellent spin and controlled power. Built for competitive and high-performance play, this paddle offers a lively feel at the net while maintaining stability and consistency from the baseline.
