With a curved upper edge, this RPM Q2 gives you the rounded top option in the 16mm hybrid range. It is for players who prefer that outline while keeping the Q2’s foam construction and textured carbon face.
The paddle measures 16.25 inches long and 7.75 inches wide, with a 5.7 inch handle. Compared with choosing a colour, choosing this model is about the actual head shape. The Flat Top version is a separate option in the same hybrid family.
RPM uses a moulded EPP core with integrated channels, supported by TPU at the perimeter and TPE through the neck. These materials are intended to manage flex, reduce twisting and soften vibration. CarbonBite surface texture and Axial Carbon Layup are also part of the build. The listed figures are 7.8oz average weight, 114 swing weight, 6.1 twist weight and a 247mm balance point.
Pre-order is currently listed for 30 September 2026, subject to the latest availability notice. The paddle comes with a cover and grip adjustment and is listed as USAP approved. Its limited lifetime warranty applies to manufacturing defects under RPM’s terms. We can fit a 4.125 to 4.75 inch grip using removable black long life overgrip without adhesive, and include the original medium grip when a small size is chosen.
