This full-foam construction is engineered to resist the breakdown and dead spots that wear down other paddles over time. The floating MPP core is surrounded by soft EVA foam, tuned for elite power, an oversized sweet spot, and long-term durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eBut the true star of the Jade is its grit. At RPM, we're always in the pursuit of more—and \u003cstrong\u003eTier 1 durable roughness \u003c\/strong\u003ehas been on our radar for a very long time. We went through prototype after prototype, refining and testing until we landed on a surface we're genuinely proud of: one that generates elite spin and, critically, holds it—shot after shot, season after season. With our SICmatrix silicon carbide surface, the Jade generates spin most paddles can't match and keeps generating it far longer than paddles that smooth out and fade with use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe result is a paddle designed for players who want elite spin that doesn't wear down, explosive power they can control, and predictable performance from baseline drives to fast-paced kitchen exchanges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePREORDERS SHIP SEPTEMBER 30TH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"spec-tabs__spec-grid\" role=\"list\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"spec-tabs__spec-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-label\"\u003eREGISTERED APPROVAL BODY\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-value\"\u003eUSAP PBCoR .43\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"spec-tabs__spec-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-label\"\u003eCLASS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-value\"\u003eProfessional Level\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"spec-tabs__spec-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-label\"\u003eSURFACE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-value\"\u003eSilicon Carbide\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"spec-tabs__spec-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-label\"\u003eCORE THICKNESS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-value\"\u003e16mm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"spec-tabs__spec-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-label\"\u003eAVERAGE WEIGHT\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-value\"\u003e7.8oz\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"spec-tabs__spec-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-label\"\u003eSWING WEIGHT\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-value\"\u003e107\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"spec-tabs__spec-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-label\"\u003eTWIST WEIGHT\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-value\"\u003e6.9\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"spec-tabs__spec-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-label\"\u003ePADDLE LENGTH\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-value\"\u003e16″\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"spec-tabs__spec-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-label\"\u003ePADDLE WIDTH\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-value\"\u003e8″\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"spec-tabs__spec-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-label\"\u003eGRIP LENGTH\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-value\"\u003e5.5″\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"spec-tabs__spec-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-label\"\u003eGRIP CIRCUMFERENCE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-value\"\u003e4.125″\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"spec-tabs__spec-item\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-label\"\u003eBALANCE POINT\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-tabs__spec-value\"\u003e244 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMPP Floating Core\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Jade's MPP floating core is engineered for elite control and long-term durability.
