T700 RAW Carbon Fiber: The Future of Pickleball Paddles

Pickleball players are always looking for the next best thing. The days of fiberglass paddles are long gone, and now, T700 RAW carbon fiber is taking center stage. But what makes this material so special? And how do Thermoformed paddles compare to Cold Press paddles? Let’s break it down.

Why T700 RAW Carbon Fiber?

T700 RAW carbon fiber is known for its unmatched durability, power, and control. Unlike older paddle materials, T700 offers a gritty surface that enhances spin and precision.

Here’s why players are making the switch:

• Superior Strength – T700 carbon fiber is tougher and lasts longer.

• Unmatched Spin – The raw texture grips the ball for better spin control.

• Lightweight Power – More power without adding extra weight.

• Consistent Performance – No soft spots or uneven wear over time.

If you’re serious about improving your game, a T700 paddle can make a real difference.

Thermoformed Paddles vs. Cold Press Paddles

When choosing a paddle, it’s not just about the material—it’s also about how it’s made. There are two main types of paddle construction: Thermoformed (Hot Press) Paddles and Cold Press Paddles. Let’s compare.

Thermoformed (Hot Press) Paddles

These paddles are created using high heat and pressure, fusing the layers into a solid, seamless piece. The result?

✅ More Power – Heat compression creates a denser, stronger paddle.

✅ Better Durability – No weak spots or layers separating over time.

✅ Consistent Feel – The entire paddle has the same firmness and pop.
If you love aggressive, high-speed play, a Thermoformed paddle is for you.

Cold Press Paddles

Cold press paddles are made without extreme heat, keeping the material's natural properties intact.

✅ More Touch and Control – Ideal for soft game and dinks.

✅ Flexible Feel – Slightly more responsive for players who love finesse.

✅ Cost-Effective – Generally more affordable than Thermoformed paddles.

Cold Press paddles are great for control-focused players who value precision over raw power.

Which One is Right for You?

The choice comes down to play style. If you’re a power player looking for unmatched strength and spin, a Thermoformed T700 RAW Carbon Fiber paddle is the way to go. If you prefer finesse and control, a Cold Press paddle might be the better fit.

How to Make Your Paddle Last Longer

No matter which type you choose, proper care will extend the life of your paddle. Here are some quick tips:

• Keep It Clean – Wipe off dirt and sweat after each game.

• Store It Right – Avoid extreme temperatures and humidity.

• Use an Edge Guard – Protect against accidental drops.

• Rotate Paddles – If you play frequently, switching paddles helps reduce wear.
