Shapeshifter SX

The Chorus Shapeshifter SX is a wide-body pickleball paddle with a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core, a material known for balancing power and control. The face is constructed of carbon fiber, often associated with control and feel. Weighing 7.9 oz with a 5.6-inch grip, it may suit players who prefer a slightly longer grip for two-handed backhands. Its low swing weight of 108, categorized as low, suggests ease of maneuverability. The paddle's twist weight is 6.895 with a rating of 6.4 out of 10, placing it in the 85th percentile for twist weight, indicating good stability on off-center hits. The 16mm core thickness and wide shape could offer a larger sweet spot. While the wide shape might enhance control, it could also reduce reach. The combination of carbon fiber face and polypropylene core may provide a balance of power and control, potentially making it suitable for all-court players.
