Pinnacle 97 Hickory-Carbon

Pinnacle 97 — Elongated Power with Purpose NEW for 2026 The Pinnacle 97 is built for players who value reach, leverage, and intentional shot-making. Its elongated shape—slightly longer and narrower than the Pinnacle 94—delivers added power and spin while sacrificing a bit of sweet-spot forgiveness for performance. Leverage-Driven Power The longer profile increases swing leverage, creating higher paddle-head speed without a trampoline effect. Results: Stronger serves Deeper drives The power feels controlled, predictable, and confidence-inspiring. Serve, Return & Spin Advantage The Pinnacle 97 excels on aggressive serves and returns, keeping the ball deep and low to apply immediate pressure. High contact-point serves Heavy topspin and slice Deep, driving returns The longer face increases brushing path and paddle-tip speed, making it especially effective for topspin drives, roll volleys, and cut serves. Natural Spin. Precise Control. Our natural hickory playing surface, paired with an aggressive fully molded epoxy texture, delivers exceptional spin. A custom epoxy resin blend with cross-woven carbon fiber ensures that spin is matched with outstanding control and feel. Built for Aggressive Play The narrower face reduces air resistance for quicker hands at the net, making the Pinnacle 97 a strong choice for: Singles players Tennis converts Power-first or drive-heavy doubles players Hand-Built. Limited. Intentional. Each Pinnacle Series paddle is hand-built by us in limited numbers and tested to meet IPMA specifications for recreational play and non-USAPA sanctioned tournaments. This paddle is not USAPA certified, allowing us to pass along meaningful cost savings. Naturally One of a Kind Every paddle features unique hickory grain and coloration—no two are exactly alike. The Pinnacle 97 delivers Brick House control and feel in an elongated design made for players who choose performance over forgiveness.
