You will receive an email after checkout requesting your grip thickness (S, M, L, XL). Grip thickness correlates to hand size or glove size - see photo. Call 0405 182 794 if you have any questions. We post all orders same day where possible so we will send a medium grip if we don't hear from you.
GRUVN's LAZR-16X (eXtended shape) is a high-performance, all-court elongated paddle with a Kevlar-carbon fiber blend surface. This thermoformed, mid-weight paddle has plenty of power to go along with optimal control, durability, and maximum spin (2214 RPM!). It is approved by USA Pickleball (USAPA) for tournament play. The LAZR-16X has more ball dwell time and 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 long paddle length of 16.5” extends players’ reach and the 5.5” handle length allows for powerful two-handed backhands. The rounded top of the paddle face gives players an aerodynamic feel and great hand speed, and the weight of ~8.0 ounces provides stability and balance for all aspects of the game, including plays at the net and returning hard shots. The paddle has a swing weight of 117 and a solid twist weight of 6.38.
The LAZR-16X 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.
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 :)
