The Franklin C45 Carbon Fiber Paddle – C45 Dynasty 16mm (Mint) is a premium performance pickleball paddle designed for players who want a combination of power, precision, stability and spin control. Built on Franklin’s advanced C45 paddle platform, the Dynasty model features a 16 mm thick PowerFlex polymer core and a 45-degree carbon fiber surface that enhances ball responsiveness and spin potential without sacrificing feel.

Thanks to its elongated shape and slightly extended length, this paddle provides extra reach and leverage, making it ideal for deep drives, attacking shots, and powerful serves while also maintaining control at the kitchen. Franklin’s double thermoformed unibody construction increases overall structural strength and significantly reduces vibration, giving players a confident feel on every shot.

Approved by USA Pickleball (USAP) and United Pickleball Association (UPA) for competitive play, this mint-coloured finish adds a stylish touch to a racket engineered for serious performance on court.

  T700 raw carbon fibre peel ply texture applied at a 45° angle across the paddle face enhances grit and spin potential, helping you control topspin, slice, and directional touch with confidence.

  A dual thermoforming manufacturing process that strengthens the paddle’s structure while dampening unwanted vibration for greater stability and durability through extended play.
