How the 1 TruFoam Genesis plays

The CRBN 1 TruFoam Genesis is a control-oriented paddle. On our 0–10 comparison scale its strongest traits are control and spin. Its elongated shape adds reach and leverage for power and spin, but the sweet spot sits higher and rewards consistent contact. Its 14 mm core leans toward pop and hand speed.

It is aimed at 4.0–5.0 players, and it is best in the hands of advanced players who can take advantage of it. It is not the very fastest paddle in hand at the net. It sits in the mid price tier — confirm the current price at the source before buying. It is part of the CRBN TruFoam Genesis line.
