Summary
The CRBN TruFoam Genesis 1 is an elongated paddle with a 14mm foam composite core and a carbon fiber face. The combination of core and face materials may offer a balance of power and control. Weighing 8.2 oz with a 5.5-inch grip, it has a swing weight of 125, placing it in the high range. This suggests it may be more suitable for players seeking added power but could be less maneuverable for some. The 14mm core thickness may contribute to the paddle's power potential. Its elongated shape could provide a larger sweet spot. The manufacturer's data suggests high spin (2131 RPM), drive speed (56.4 MPH), and volley speed (36.5 MPH), rating highly in power and pop. The twist weight is 5.67, with a relatively low twist weight rating, which might indicate slightly less stability on off-center hits. This paddle might be best suited for intermediate to advanced players looking for a power-oriented paddle.
