Candy Melody Collection Sport Series – (16mm)

Absolutely! We designed the Sport Series specifically with beginners and intermediate players in mind. It features a massive sweet spot and a forgiving 16mm honeycomb polymer core. This means even if you don't hit the ball perfectly in the dead center of the paddle, you will still get a smooth, controlled, and consistent shot.

The Candy Melody weighs exactly 225g (about 7.9 ounces), which places it right in the "mid-weight" category. This is the universally recommended weight for newer players because it offers a perfect balance: enough mass to generate power on your serves, but light enough to ensure quick maneuverability at the net without causing arm or wrist fatigue.

Yes. While it is a beginner-friendly paddle, it is built with advanced features to help you grow. The fiberglass surface utilizes our upgraded Next-Generation Coating—a durable, textured grit that grips the pickleball upon impact. This makes it much easier to learn and execute top-spin and back-spin as your skills advance.

Paddle thickness drastically affects the "feel" of your game. A thicker 16mm core is designed for control. It absorbs more vibration and impact from the ball than a thinner paddle, giving you a much softer touch. This is crucial when you are learning the game, trying to keep the ball in bounds, or practicing your short "dink" shots at the kitchen line.

The handle is built for maximum comfort. It features a 10.8cm (approx. 4.25 inches) grip circumference, which is a standard size that fits most hands comfortably. Furthermore, our Enhanced One-Piece PU Foam Handle provides superior shock absorption and a soft, cushioned grip that actively resists slipping during hot, high-intensity matches.
