Wide Body Paddles

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

? What makes a paddle a wide body?

Wide-body paddles feature expanded face dimensions that create a larger hitting surface. This oversized paddle design increases the effective sweet spot and provides more forgiveness on off-center contact.

? Will a wide paddle feel different?

Yes, but in a good way. The large sweet spot paddle design provides more consistent feedback across a wider area. Most players adapt quickly and appreciate the added margin for error.

? Is a wide paddle good for beginners?

Wide body design benefits players at every level. Beginners appreciate the forgiveness while learning. Advanced players value the expanded sweet spot during aggressive play. The Blaze serves with premium construction.

Not necessarily. The Blaze uses T700 carbon fiber to maintain a playable weight despite its expanded dimensions. You get wide-body benefits without the fatigue of a heavy paddle.
