CRBN¹ TruFoam Barrage Pickleball Paddle (Elongated, Long Handle) The CRBN¹ TruFoam Barrage Pickleball Paddle is a power-first, elongated paddle engineered for advanced players who demand maximum pop, explosive ball speed, and aggressive offensive play. Abandoning traditional polypropylene honeycomb entirely, the Barrage features a Gen-4 multi-density TruFoam Floating Core with engineered flex voids, an EVA foam perimeter ring, and a coarse Toray T700 Raw Carbon Fiber face — delivering immediate kinetic deflection, zero core crush, and heavy spin generation on every strike. ⚡ Maximum Pop Gen-4 TruFoam Floating Core with flex voids delivers the highest pop in the CRBN lineup — zero dwell time, instant ball speed. 🌀 Heavy Spin Coarse peel-ply Toray T700 Raw Carbon Fiber face grips the ball instantly for aggressive topspin drives and heavy baseline serves. 🎯 Two-Handed Backhand Ready Extended 5.75" handle with 4.125" grip circumference gives ample clearance for double-handed groundstrokes and fast kitchen exchanges. 🛡 No Core Crush — Ever Honeycomb-free foam architecture eliminates permanent indentation, keeping pop and performance consistent throughout the paddle’s life. 📋 Specifications BrandCRBN ModelTruFoam Barrage (TFB1) ShapeElongated Paddle Length16.5" Paddle Width7.35" Core Thickness14mm Gen-4 TruFoam Floating Core Average Weight7.9 – 8.1 oz Swing Weight118 (Quick) Twist Weight5.89 Handle Length5.75" (Extended) Grip Circumference4.125" Paddle FaceToray T700 Raw Carbon Fiber PerimeterEVA Foam Ring Player LevelAdvanced (4.0–5.0+) Play StylePower / Offensive / Counter-Attack Retail Price$279.99 🚀 Technologies & Features 100% Gen-4 TruFoam Floating Core A completely honeycomb-free, layered structural foam interior featuring an Expanded Polypropylene (EP) center with engineered void cutouts. These flex voids allow the core to compress deeply on impact for maximum ball pocketing before snapping back instantly — delivering the highest pop in the CRBN lineup with zero dwell time. No Core Crush Architecture By removing honeycomb cells entirely, CRBN eliminates the permanent indentation and performance degradation common in traditional paddles. The TruFoam core retains its shape and responsiveness throughout its operational life — ensuring the paddle plays the same on day one as it does after hundreds of hours of play. Toray T700 Raw Carbon Fiber Face A coarse, peel-ply textured Toray T700 raw carbon fiber striking surface grips the ball instantly on contact. The raw T700 texture provides the friction needed to shape heavy topspin drives, roll dinks, and deep baseline serves — while the TruFoam core’s low dwell time ensures the ball exits the face with maximum speed. Tri-Zonal Core Layering & EVA Perimeter Ring The internal layout is divided into three functional zones: a reactive EP center for energy return, a dense EVA foam perimeter ring for shock absorption and perimeter weighting, and an outer structural EP foam layer extending through the edges and into the handle — creating continuous structural flow that dampens paddle shock on every hit. Carbon-Reinforced Seam Edges Advanced carbon fiber seam structure wraps the outer perimeter edges to massively increase torsional rigidity — forcing the paddle to resist twisting on off-center blocks and ensuring energy is focused purely on forward ball speed during fast-twitch hand battles at the kitchen line. Max Power & Pop Independent playtesting confirms the Barrage delivers the highest drive speed and deepest ball penetration in the CRBN TruFoam lineup. The layered EP foam and void cutouts optimize immediate kinetic deflection over soft dwell time — rewarding aggressive counter-attacks and hand battles with explosive, penetrating ball speed. Extended Long Handle (5.75") The elongated 5.75" handle with a 4.125" grip circumference is purpose-built for two-handed backhand players. It provides ample clearance for double-handed groundstrokes while maintaining a lower twist weight for faster hand speed and quick transitions during kitchen line exchanges. 🎯 Who Is This Paddle Best For? The CRBN¹ TruFoam Barrage is built for advanced players at the 4.0 to 5.0+ skill level who prioritize explosive power, fast counter-attacks, and aggressive baseline play. Its pop-centric engine rewards solid mechanics and precise ball striking — players who consistently hit the sweet spot will experience elite drive speed and heavy spin. This is not a beginner’s paddle: mishits outside the core zone face a noticeable drop-off in power, making it a specialist weapon for experienced, offensive-minded players. Two-handed backhand players will especially appreciate the extended handle layout. 🏆 Summary The CRBN¹ TruFoam Barrage Pickleball Paddle redefines what a foam-core paddle can do. With a Gen-4 TruFoam Floating Core, Tri-Zonal layering, carbon-reinforced seam edges, and a Toray T700 Raw Carbon Fiber face — all in an elongated, long-handle format — the Barrage is engineered for advanced players who demand maximum pop, zero core crush, and the spin to back it up. At $279.99, it’s a serious investment in serious performance. 🏆 Google Trusted Store | ✓ Authorized CRBN Dealer | 🚚 Fast & Free U.S. Shipping | 💬 U.S.-Based Experts
