Power you can command with surprising touch? Phoenix has risen from the ashes of the Fire, formed in a Singularity for you!
The Chorus Phoenix introduces our Singularity Core! It will give you the ultimate attack you're looking for in a power paddle while satisfying with its ability to shape the ball without worrying about unreliable "diving board" effects you get from some big brand "Gen 3" paddles. This power is coupled with surprising touch and control in the soft game.
Phoenix is a power paddle you can trust and intuitively wield.
Phoenix uses an industry-unique flexible soft carbon fiber and fiberglass, combined with our Singularity wide-cell power core! The polypropylene honeycomb core is made of wider cells, providing an extra push of power the harder you swing.
Phoenix also includes our new, sturdier handle shapes as well as a taller silicone ring at the top of the grip to reduce vibration as well as give a generous area to cover up overgrip finishing tape.
What does this all mean?
- Consistent touch in the soft game
- Increased power in flicks, speed-ups and counters with less effort
- Powerful and satisfying overheads, full strokes and finishes
Also, you get a free paddle cover with your purchase, a $12.99 value!

I was fortunate enough to get a hold of a Phoenix EX before release date to test it out. As a fan of Chorus' previous power paddle, the Fire, the Phoenix is a complete upgrade over it. It is softer, more forgiving, yet it has easily has as much power and pop of its predecessor. It has more dwell time than both Fire and Supercourt, and the sweetspot/consistency cross the face is better as well. Serves and drives feel accurate, overhead finishers were easy, manuverable and fast enough for hand battles with enough pop to put away balls during volleys, drops and resets were easy to dial in, and plenty enough spin to hit fast dropping drips. My paddle came in at 7.95oz stock, and it has been weight up to 8.15oz to my preference.
Overall, the Pheonix is an excellent, well-rounded power paddle. It isn't the most powerful or poppy paddle on the market, but it has ample of both to be a power paddle without sacrificing much control when compared to a good all-court paddle like the Supercourt, making it a good paddle for most players. It won't automatically take your serves and drives to Jack Sock level, but it won't sabatoge you with unexpected responses either -- your output is always consistent with your input, and that consistency with all the firepower you need makes this an incredible paddle. It is by far, my absolute favorite Chorus paddle. If you are looking for a reasonable power paddle that raises your abilities without being a burden, definitely give the Chorus Phoenix a try!
