FAQs

  • Carbon Fiber (e.g., Neo Athlos IGNIS):

    • Made with Toray T700 raw carbon fiber for maximum stiffness, power, and spin.

    • Delivers explosive drives and precise control, ideal for aggressive, competitive players.

  • Fiberglass (e.g., Neo Athlos MARS/WAVE):

    • Features a softer, more forgiving surface with excellent vibration dampening.

    • Offers a larger sweet spot and better consistency for beginners and touch-focused players.

Takeaway: Carbon fiber excels in power/spin; fiberglass prioritizes comfort and ease of use.

Neo Athlos paddles use a polypropylene (PP) honeycomb core with 0.8cm cell size, providing:

  • Lightweight durability for reduced arm fatigue.

  • Optimized energy transfer for balanced power and control.

  • Expanded sweet spot to minimize mishits.

Takeaway: The honeycomb core ensures responsive, consistent performance in every shot.

Answer:

  • IGNIS (Carbon Fiber):

    • Raw, uncoated carbon fiber surface maximizes spin with minimal effort.

  • WAVE (Fiberglass):

    • Textured grit coating enhances spin while maintaining control.

Takeaway: Rough surfaces boost spin; smoother surfaces offer predictability.

  • Long Handles (e.g., IGNIS – 5.5”):

    • Preferred by advanced players for two-handed backhands and extended reach.

    • Provides extra leverage for power shots and quick net play.

  • Short Handles (e.g., MARS – 5”):

    • Great for beginners—improves maneuverability and reduces strain.

    • Fits smaller hands comfortably.

Takeaway: Long handles suit competitive play; short handles favor simplicity and control.

The Toray T700 carbon fiber in the IGNIS paddle offers:

  • Tournament-level spin and power due to its raw, uncoated surface.

  • Superior stiffness-to-weight ratio, ensuring energy efficiency on every hit.

Takeaway: High-end materials translate to measurable performance advantages.

  • 230g (Midweight): Balances power and control, suitable for most players.

  • Lighter (<220g): Faster swings but less drive force.

  • Heavier (>240g): More power but requires stronger technique.

Takeaway: Midweight paddles like Neo Athlos models provide versatility for all playing styles.
