GRUVN's LAZR-16S (standard shape) is a high-performance, wide body paddle with a Kevlar-carbon fiber blend surface. This thermoformed, mid-weight paddle has a lot of power to go along with optimal control, durability, and maximum spin. It is approved by USA Pickleball (USAPA) for tournament play. The LAZR-16S is a strong, stable paddle with consistent and accurate shots.  This model comes with two color options: red blend and blue blend.

Newer Features:
• Thermoformed sealed edges increase stability
• Unibody construction provides a more durable paddle
• Foam injected walls around the edges and down through the handle increases the sweet spot and adds control

The wide body shape provides a large sweet spot and room for error, and delivers stability and balance for all aspects of the game, including plays at the net and returning hard shots. The rounded top of the paddle face gives players an aerodynamic feel and great hand speed. Its 5.35” handle length is long enough for great two-handed swings and extended reaches across the court.

The LAZR-16S has a 16mm thick polypropylene honeycomb core designed to evenly react to the force of impact and provide precision control, while also absorbing vibration and noise. Polypropylene is the most popular core among pickleball players.

This paddle has a black edge guard and blue blend and also comes with a zippered neoprene cover with the GRÜVN logo to protect the pickleball paddle when not in play ($15 value!).

What is the difference in how the LAZR, MUVN and RAW paddles play?
The biggest difference is that the LAZR and MUVN paddles have a lot more pop compared to the RAW paddles because they are thermoformed. If you are a player looking for extra power, then the LAZR and MUVN paddles are for you.  It can be difficult for some players to switch to a thermoformed paddle because of the extra power they provide. If you prefer more control, then the RAW paddles would be better suited for you. The LAZR and MUVN paddles play very similar to each other. The LAZR paddles add a different aesthetic to the surface with the red and blue blends for those who don’t prefer the black raw carbon fiber surface, and provide a bit more power and ball dwell time. They all provide great spin :)

Paddle Cleaner Included
• Each LAZR paddle comes with a GRUVN paddle cleaner, which is a stick of rubber that is 2.5” x 2” x 1” in size, This is not for graphite or composite paddles). Rub it on your paddle surface to keep it clean and also maximize the spin. It isn't pretty, but your paddle will be after using it :)

** PADDLE CARE – IMPORTANT **
Your paddle can become damaged from extreme temperatures. Extreme cold temperatures will cause the core and hitting surface to become brittle and crack. Extreme high temperatures will soften the core and hitting surface and can cause delamination. This occurs when the hitting surface separates from the core. Dead spots and other issues will arise from this. Do not leave your paddle out in the sun on a hot day, be sure to cover it from the heat or it can be damaged. Do not leave your paddle in your vehicle during the summer or winter.

(Different computer monitors and mobile phones display colors differently, so the color of your paddle may vary slightly from the representation on your screen)
