Its PowerFlex core provides a plush response, helping us absorb pace and reset the ball with precision. The 45° T700 carbon fiber surface maintains elite spin potential, while the added thickness stabilizes off-center hits and gives players confidence in dinking battles and soft play. When compared to the 14mm, the 16mm C45 is the control counterpart, a paddle that rewards patience, consistency, and shot placement just as much as power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"TypographyPresentation TypographyPresentation--medium RichText3-paragraph--withVSpacingNormal RichText3-paragraph HighlightSol HighlightSol--buildingBlock\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"RichTextList-bulleted\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"TypographyPresentation TypographyPresentation--medium RichText3-paragraph--withVSpacingNormal RichText3-paragraph HighlightSol HighlightSol--buildingBlock\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e45° T700 Carbon Fiber Surface\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e– Angled weave enhances grip on the ball for optimal spin and control.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"TypographyPresentation TypographyPresentation--medium RichText3-paragraph--withVSpacingNormal RichText3-paragraph HighlightSol HighlightSol--buildingBlock\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePowerFlex Polymer Core (16mm)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e– Thicker construction delivers superior stability, dwell time, and soft touch.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"TypographyPresentation TypographyPresentation--medium RichText3-paragraph--withVSpacingNormal RichText3-paragraph HighlightSol HighlightSol--buildingBlock\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDouble Thermoformed Build\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e– Reinforced twice to create a consistent, vibration-free feel through every rally.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"TypographyPresentation TypographyPresentation--medium RichText3-paragraph--withVSpacingNormal RichText3-paragraph HighlightSol HighlightSol--buildingBlock\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElongated Design with a 5.6\" Handle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e– Extra reach helps with lobs, volleys, and backcourt defense.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"TypographyPresentation TypographyPresentation--medium RichText3-paragraph--withVSpacingNormal RichText3-paragraph HighlightSol HighlightSol--buildingBlock\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLightweight Balance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e– Averaging just 7.8oz, it moves easily at the net while staying stable under pressure\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Franklin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49836492456176,"sku":null,"price":229.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/3272\/5232\/files\/Franklin_Hayden_Patriquin_Dynasty_45_16mm__38279.1762541147.jpg?v=1781293611","url":"https:\/\/shop.sbpickleballshop.com\/products\/franklin-c45","provider":"SB Pickleball Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
