THICKNESS COMPARISON
CF3 14mm
- Thinner Construction, More Power: The 14mm paddle, with its thinner profile, offers players a bit more power behind their shots, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a more aggressive playing style.
CF3 16mm
- Thicker Build, Enhanced Control: The 16mm paddle boasts a thicker construction, allowing the ball to dwell on the paddle's surface for a fraction longer. This feature promotes increased spin, better control, and a larger sweet spot, resulting in precise shot placement and superior maneuverability on the court.
- Slightly Reduced Power: While the 16mm paddle may be slightly less powerful than its 14mm counterpart, its trade-off in power is offset by its enhanced control and maneuverability.
Ultimately, the choice between the CF3 14mm and 16mm paddles depends on your individual preferences and playing style. Whether you prioritize power or control, both options offer exceptional performance to elevate your game on the pickleball court.
I started off with the KC1 and it felt a little too "soft" for me so i gave it to my wife who enjoys its more plush feel. I then had the opportunity to pick up a CF3 and as soon as I hit my first few shots it felt right. I tend to be a little too wristy but this paddle responded immediately, especially on backhand flicks and also in exchanges at the kitchen. Placement was easy. I am still trying to dial on my serves which I tend to hit with top spin but all in all I am very pleased
I felt the CF3 was more different than alike when compared to my primary paddle of 10 months, a raw CF facing hybrid-shape which is also from the land down under.
What impressed me with the CF3 is that it offers multi-dimension playability by being more control oriented and having better maneuverability. Flicks & roll volleys are easier to execute than before. I was able to react faster on the defense as this paddle felt less cumbersome than my previous despite maintaining the same static weight on both. My finesse game also improved, shot placements are more accurate & consistent thereby reducing unforced errors during game play. Being an aero curve elongated-shaped paddle, I also found it more natural & free-flowing to swing on ground strokes. The power & pop level is good, so the ball does propel off with pace during counters and gives good depth placement. I am also biased towards a full raw CF facing thermoformed paddle for performance because they typically play more lively and not too mushy.
There is no paddle that excels in all aspects, but I am comfortable making the CF3 (16mm) my new primary paddle of choice.
This paddle is by far the best I have ever played with. It has a generous sweet spot and generates ridiculous power. The grit on the surface allows for easy top-spin shots. The Standout CF3 has really taken my game to the next level.
All in one.. spin, control and power. I love it!
CF3 is Best paddle I have used!!! Shirts comfy plus look AWESOME!!!!
