Proton Sports Project Flamingo Widebody 13mm Pickleball Paddle
Widebody Forgiveness • Fast Response • Max Spin — Gen 3 Velocity Core feel with a crisp 13mm pop.
The latest evolution of Proton’s Series Three, the Project Flamingo retains the durability of the original model while pushing right up to the threshold for maximum allowable power and roughness. This square widebody 13mm build is made for players who want a lighter, more responsive feel off the face—without giving up consistency or quick maneuverability.
Featuring Proton’s newly innovated Velocity Core (high-density performance foam integrated with premium-grade polypropylene), this paddle delivers more dwell time and control on your shots without sacrificing power. Add in the roughness-enhanced aerospace-grade carbon fiber surface for maximum spin, and the Flamingo is built to give you a real edge in every exchange.
