Sword & Shield J2NF Gen. 4.5 – Multi-Density All Foam Paddle
Next generation hybrid performance with maxed-out pop, spin, and firm control.
Next generation innovation is here. The J2NF Gen. 4.5 delivers unmatched power, spin, and control through its patent-pending Multi-Density All Foam Floating Core. Designed with the Aero Hybrid Plus Shape, it combines the explosive reach of an elongated paddle with the precision and sweet spot of a standard shape.
Engineered with a Carbon Fiber / Fiberglass / Carbon Fiber (CFC) surface and Connected Reflex Technology™, this paddle maximizes responsiveness, hand speed, and stability—giving you everything you need to dominate at the kitchen or from the baseline.
And the best part? It maxed out the USA Pickleball PBCoR test at 0.434—pushing performance to the legal limit.
