One of the most aggressive paddles on the market — now Certified Pre-Owned and priced to move. The Proton Series Three – Project Flamingo packs an elongated 16.5" frame, a 15mm Velocity Core, and a roughness-enhanced raw carbon face built for serious spin and power. It was the first paddle ever dual-stamped for both UPA-A and USA Pickleball, making it legal at the pro and amateur level alike.
Condition: Good
Cleaned, inspected, and fully court-ready. Normal cosmetic wear from play — a few minor surface marks consistent with a Good grade, nothing affecting performance or structure. Fitted with a fresh pink overgrip and ready to hit straight out of the box.
Best For
- Aggressive players who live for power and heavy topspin
- Third-shot drives, putaway speedups, and spin-heavy serves
- Intermediate to advanced players who want a proven, pro-adopted frame
On-Court Feel
The Velocity Core — high-density performance foam fused with premium polypropylene honeycomb — gives the Flamingo extra dwell time and a stable, low-vibration feel even on off-center hits. The elongated shape adds reach and leverage at the kitchen and on serves, while the gritty carbon face grabs the ball for elite spin. It's a heavy hitter that can still reset when the game slows down.
