Honolulu Sword & Shield J6FC+ Pickleball Paddle

A perfectly tuned blend of power, precision, and controlled finesse.

The Honolulu Sword & Shield J6FC+ Pickleball Paddle is built for players who want it all—power, precision, and exceptional control in one finely tuned design. As part of Honolulu’s latest-generation lineup, the J6FC+ refines its predecessor’s strengths with a smoother response and improved shot predictability, creating a paddle that thrives in both fast-paced drives and controlled rallies. It blends raw force with soft-touch finesse, giving players a dynamic, high-performance tool for any competitive environment.

Engineered with Honolulu’s Gen 4.5 multi-density floating foam core, the J6FC+ combines an EPP center with an EVA perimeter to achieve a unique balance of power and feel. This dual-foam configuration expands the sweet spot, absorbs vibration, and provides a remarkably consistent ball response across the entire face. The result is a paddle that feels incredibly stable and forgiving, even on off-center hits, without sacrificing the pop and energy transfer needed for aggressive play.

The 16mm core and elongated 16.48" × 7.52" frame deliver a satisfying combination of reach and control, while the aerodynamically curved top ensures a clean swing through the air. With more mass shifted toward the paddle’s head, players get enhanced swing weight—between 116 and 120—translating to added momentum and penetrating drives. Despite this power-oriented setup, the J6FC+ remains maneuverable and responsive, making it ideal for both singles and doubles play.

The face is crafted entirely from carbon fiber, giving players a solid, tactile connection to every shot. This multi-layer construction increases stiffness and control while enhancing spin potential for precision placement and wicked topspin drives. Combined with Honolulu’s thermo-compression forming and perimeter-balanced build, the J6FC+ provides both durability and elite-level stability, ready for extended match play and tournament conditions.

A 6-inch handle ensures plenty of space for two-handed backhands, while the 4.125" grip circumference offers a comfortable, secure hold for precise control and quick transitions. The Connected Reflex Technology further refines feedback, creating a more unified connection between paddle and player. With its predictable power curve, players can trust the J6FC+ to respond consistently whether driving from the baseline, resetting in the kitchen, or countering at the net.

For advanced beginners through pro-level competitors, this paddle defines versatility. It’s not just powerful—it’s disciplined, steady, and smooth, making it one of the most balanced elongated paddles on the market. With its superior foam core technology, massive sweet spot, and refined control profile, the Honolulu Sword & Shield J6FC+ gives players the confidence to dominate every rally.

USA Pickleball Approved and tournament ready, this paddle stands as a statement of performance and precision for those who expect more from every swing.
