After years of development, we’re excited to introduce the A1W-15-50G A-1 Paddle to our lineup. Featuring our innovative “Air Flow” frame and waffle shaped mold, this paddle offers the largest hitting area of any A-1 paddle, enhancing optimum control and making it easier to keep the ball in play longer.
Whether you’re playing "small ball" or "big blue," this paddle is built for versatility. It boasts our newly engineered symmetrical handle, carefully designed for optimal performance. 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 unlike mostly every other paddle on the market that uses an eight sided slip-on plastic butt that has fairly sharp edges and is likely to fall off. The full 5-inch handle this paddle provides extra reach and improved leverage delivering more power with every swing. We’ve fine-tuned the weight and balance for a quicker, smoother swing, and the unique double-hole pattern creates the largest sweet spot available.
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.
For added convenience, the paddle includes an accessible pin in the butt for attaching a tether string. Built with premium materials and rigorously tested, the A1W-15-50G paddle delivers a perfect blend of power, control, and durability for all skill levels. Our fresh design is bold, dynamic, and makes a statement like never before!

- 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 A1W-15-50G has a medium-texture grit face, the preferred choice for players, which strikes the perfect balance—delivering ample traction for generating spin at all skill levels, while ensuring exceptional control and precision. A-1 is the innovator of the arched hole pattern, strategically placing holes along the sides of the paddle, enhancing swing speed and creating the largest, sweet spot available on any paddle.
- 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.
