Current Pro-C version: raw carbon fiber face, 14.3 mm polymer core, 7.8โ€“8.2 oz, 16 ร— 8 in, 5.25 in handle. Mid-to-upper all-rounder for regular players moving to a carbon face.

Paddletek's current Tempest Wave Pro-C puts a raw carbon fiber face on a 14.3 mm polymer core in a standard 16 ร— 8 in shape, which gives a wide face and a core between the thin Selkirk and thick Joola. The static weight is 7.8โ€“8.2 oz with a 5.25 in handle. It suits players who play regularly and want a carbon face without an elongated shape. Older Tempest Wave Pro listings describe a fiberglass face, so check which version you are buying.

Pros

  • Raw carbon fiber face on the current Pro-C version
  • 14.3 mm core sits between the 13 mm and 16 mm options here
  • Wide standard 16 ร— 8 in shape

Cons

  • Grip circumference not confirmed on the current maker page; older fiberglass listings may still be on sale
