Do you like control and spin for every shot, AND power on full swings and finishes? Then see why paddle critics say the Shapeshifter is the sport's best blend of all three and "can do anything!"

This is pickleball's FIRST all-court, 3D 18K cubic carbon fiber triaxial weave in a hybrid shape.  The Chorus Shapeshifter could become your favorite paddle!

This elite paddle features modern thermoformed construction, with the cutting-edge, unique 3D 18K cubic carbon fiber surface on a unibody mold with foam-injected 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 more than satisfy with its ample finishing and ground stroke power.

There are three premium quality 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 third layer touching the polypropylene core is premium fiberglass, acting as the strong backstop to bring 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
  • Reduction in unwanted pop ups
  • Power to finish when you need it

Also, you get a free paddle cover with your purchase, a $12.99 value!

I know nothing…

I know nothing about pickleball, or paddles, BUT this was a gift to my mother who is OBSESSED. Her trainer had this paddle and she’s been eying it for a while. Shes super happy with it!

The perfect all arounder

Hi everyone, I've been using this paddle for about 3-4 months now. I play all type of different racquet sports at an intermediate level, this paddle helps me with power and control. It pops at all the right angles, drops and drives accurately. I'd recommend this paddle to any intermediate /advanced players. I'm rated 3.8 in mens doubles and was able to make it to the finals out of 11 teams, Silver at a 3.5 against 2 players who were rated 4.5 on DUPR. This paddle is great at the kitchen, lots of control and just enough pop/spin. Definitely sticking with this paddle for the long run and might buy into their new releases in the future.

I have been using this paddle for only around 2 weeks but I feel it is really helping my game. I am able to control the ball and reset better and my drives and serves have more power but not too much. I think it will really help my game as I get used to it.

This racquet is significantly thicker than the one I had been using. Not good or bad, but definitely different. When I first started to use the paddle I did NOTHING but hit is out. In fact, a woman I was playing with accused me of being a banger...I did not know what that was. I just kept playing with the racquet and adjusted my game to have a more modulated approach to playing with the racquet and it helped tremendously. If you cannot or are not willing to adjust your game than this racquet may not be for you. It has massive power, that I cannot use all of the time, but definitely perfect for those slams and put away shots. I also have been able to slow the game and knock in some light dinkers. I think it is a solid well-build racquet, that wields intense power in the right hands. Enjoy!!
