You want plush control, big spin, and a dose of power on the bigger swings? This X Series Shapeshifter improves on the already classic paddle, and now it's in our original HX Hybrid shape that maximizes sweet spot, stability, and hand speed!
Just like the classic Shapeshifter, this elite paddle features the unique 3D 18K cubic carbon fiber surface on a unibody mold with foam edges to maximize the sweet spot. The Shapeshifter will wow with its top tier spin in all directions due to the flexibility of the wide triaxial weave, amaze with its stability and control because of the super strong 18K carbon fiber tows, and give a power boost for full swing finishes and ground strokes.
There are multiple layers on each side of the polypropylene core to create a unique blend of soft, but poppy touch. The top surface layer is that breakthrough ultra-durable, yet flexible 3D 18K cubic carbon fiber in a stunning triaxial weave shape (Toray brand). It's that stable, yet flexible 18K surface that increases the dwell time the ball spends on the paddle before it exits. The second layer is Toray brand T700 carbon fiber. The bottom layer touching the polypropylene core is flexible fiberglass, acting as the strong backstop rebound to bring a dose of power to your full swings and overhead finishes.
What does this all mean?
- Plush touch for dinks, resets and the soft game
- Intuitive ball placement with increased dwell time

This new Shapeshifter has even more control and spin. Really solid paddle!
I have the original Shapeshifter and had to come back for a newer version. This is a great all court paddle, and is more affordable than other brands I’ve seen. Thank you Chorus for sending a great promotion code. The only negative is the paddle cover is hard to zip up. It is a little small. All in all I’m very happy with this paddle.
🔥 The Shapeshifter from Chorus isn’t just another paddle—it’s the highest quality paddle that actually delivers results on the court. 🙌 If you’re struggling to dial in your game with all those hot trampoline paddles, this is the Goldilocks of paddles—just right. 🎯
With the Shapeshifter, you’ll feel like a surgeon on the court—precise, controlled, and unstoppable. 🥼✂️ Smarter, not harder, people. 💡 I’ll always have this beauty in my bag. 🎒
Chorus is the real deal—supporting rec pickleball, building community, and making paddles that flat-out perform. 💯 #ShapeshifterMagic #PickleballDoneRight
very nice racket - having fun so far
I used the OG Shapeshifter for a year and then switched to this one. So good! Lower swing weight but with a little tungsten tape, great power and control. I play 4.5+ and this paddle can hang with the other brands no problem. I even stopped using a Joola IV because this paddle is so much more reliable in tight pressured situations. The customer service is amazing too!
