Only the Encore was specially designed to maximize deflection (power) and surface roughness (spin). Based on USAPA guidelines, the Encore hits both limits. Meaning no paddle can ever have more of either. They can aspire to be equal, but can never surpass. Now you have the control (spin) to keep those hard shots in.
The design of the Encore goes further, by maximizing the amount of time the ball stays on the paddle (a concept originally developed by EngagePickleball), enabling the soft feel you need to command the soft (net) game.
The Encore line of paddles have always been about 'control' and 'ball placement', and having the perfect paddle to do just that (what you want with the ball) whether you hit 'hard' or 'soft'.
Only the 'Encore' line of paddles. We call it ControlPro™ Technology.
