After years of development, we’re thrilled to unveil the A1G-15-50R “Tear Drop” shape A-1 Paddle to our collection. This model is part of an innovative new series featuring six distinct designs, all built using our proprietary tear drop shape mold. This unique mold design was carefully developed to ensure a paddle that was perfectly balanced, lightweight, plus offers the greatest amount of power, control and durability. A real game changer!
One of several standout features of the A1G-15-50R is its hole-free design, producing the largest sweet spot of any tear drop paddle. It boasts a medium grit face texture for maximum ball spin when desired. It’s light enough for superior swing speed guaranteeing a quicker, more responsive game.
Every A-1 tear drop paddle has a perfectly symmetrical handle that will comfortably fit any hand size. It was specifically designed to be a bit small accommodating a smaller hand but can easily be customized using grip tape for those who prefer a larger handle. The slightly rectangular unique handle shape allows a player to instinctively orient the paddle with the face forward - purely by feel.
The symmetrical ergonomic butt has a perfect taper with a smooth edge all around it. The full 5-inch handle on every A-1 tear drop paddle provides extra reach and improved leverage delivering the greatest swing speed and power. For added convenience, the paddle includes an built-in pin in the butt for attaching a tether string.
The fusion of 3k Carbon Fiber with a Woven Fiberglass face material coupled with an 15 degree shock-absorbing EVA core gives this paddle exceptional power while maintaining maximum control.
Built with premium materials and rigorously tested, the A1G-15-50R paddle delivers a perfect blend of power, control, and durability for players of all skill levels. Our fresh design is bold, dynamic, and makes a statement like never before! This paddle is guaranteed to elevate your game to new heights, regardless of your current level.

- UNIBODY FRAME: Every A-1 paddle features an exceptionally strong carbon fiber frame. This high-performance material is known for its strength and lightweight properties. A-1 paddles are engineered with a continuous carbon fiber frame that runs seamlessly from the top of the paddle all the way through the handle. This integrated design enhances the paddle's stiffness, delivering increased responsiveness, power, and durability—ensuring more accurate, controlled shots.
- PADDLE FACE MATERIAL: 50/50 blend of 3K Carbon Fiber and Woven Fiberglass for enhanced toughness and slightly more attacking power.
- PADDLE-FACE TEXTURE & HOLE PATTERN: The A1G-15-50R features a medium-texture grit face, the ideal choice for players seeking the perfect blend of spin, control, and precision. The tear-drop design, intentionally free of holes, further enlarges the sweet spot, delivering remarkable power without compromising control. It’s the ideal paddle for players who demand both power and precision.
- EVA CORE MATERIAL: EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) rubber is a premium choice for paddleball racket cores. A-1 uses two specific, advanced EVA densities to enhance performance. The 18-degree core, used on this model, offers a blend of softness, flexibility and rebound, maximizing attacking power, while the 15-degree core offers exceptional control while still providing solid striking power. Both cores feature shock-absorbing properties that minimize impact on your arm and wrist.
- HANDLE/BUTT DESIGN: This paddle features a proprietary handle and butt design focused on comfort and performance. The symmetrical butt and slightly rectangular handle provide a secure, comfortable grip for all hand sizes, designed smaller for smaller hands but customizable with grip tape for larger ones. Our paddles feature an ergonomically molded butt which blends seamlessly into the handle. Additionally, a pin is built into the butt which allows for a tether to easily be attached if desired.
