Health & Body Notes

⚠️Use Caution — Arm Health

⚠️ ARM CAUTION: Nomex cores transmit significantly more vibration than polypropylene cores. Not recommended for players with elbow, wrist, or forearm issues. Wide body shape provides a very forgiving sweet spot for beginners. Very popular in rec centers. Notably loud on contact.

Health notes are based on paddle physics and general ergonomic principles. They are not medical advice. Consult a healthcare professional for injury-specific guidance.
