Franklin C45° Parris Todd Signature Pickleball Paddle

Franklin Sports continues to push the boundaries of pickleball innovation, working closely with professional players to develop paddles that deliver exceptional performance. Designed in collaboration with Parris Todd, the C45° Signature Paddle combines advanced technology, impressive power and outstanding control to help players take their game to the next level.

Featuring a 13.25mm PowerFlex polymer core, this elongated paddle is engineered to deliver explosive pop while maintaining precision and consistency. With a 5.7-inch handle, 4.15-inch grip circumference and a weight range of 7.6–7.9oz, the Parris Todd C45° offers a comfortable, responsive feel for competitive play.

The C45° features an innovative double-thermoformed unibody construction, designed to enhance the paddle's structural strength and significantly reduce vibration. A large internal foam channel reinforces the frame while protecting the integrity of the polymer core, ensuring durability and reliable performance over time.

Its T700 carbon fibre surface features a unique 45-degree peel ply texture, creating a consistent, high-grit finish that maximises spin potential and ball grip. This allows players to generate impressive power and speed while maintaining the control needed for accurate shot placement.

Combining cutting-edge construction with professional-level performance, the Franklin C45° Parris Todd Signature Paddle is designed for players who want the perfect balance of power, spin and precision.
