Enhance EPP Turbo Widebody 16mm Pickleball Paddle
The Enhance EPP Turbo Widebody 16mm Pickleball Paddle brings a different approach to foam-core performance, combining a full floating foam core with a compact, forgiving shape. Rather than chasing experimental manufacturing processes simply to raise the premium cost, the Turbo line focuses on maximum performance at an accessible price. The EPP Turbo currently retails for $119.99 and pairs an EPP foam center with an EVA foam ring around the perimeter.
That optimized construction gives the paddle a firm, connected feel while preserving the hollow response and pop players expect from modern foam paddles. Internal perimeter weighting helps increase stability and twist resistance, especially when the ball misses the center of the paddle face. In the EPP Turbo Widebody, a 16” length and 8” paddle width produce a generous sweet spot, while its 7.8-8.0 oz weight and 108-112 swing weight keep the shape quick enough for fast exchanges at the net. A 7.0+ twist weight further supports stability on blocks, resets, and counters.
The CFC layup combines carbon fiber with a fiberglass layer before adding raw T700 carbon fiber grit at the surface. That construction supplies lively energy return, high power, and strong spin while maintaining useful control for dinks, rolls, drops, and placement. For players who want power control without a stiff or unpredictable response, the EPP foam and EVA foam perimeter create a consistent feel across the paddle face.
Enhance Pickleball offers the EPP Turbo in three shapes, including the EPP Turbo Widebody, EPP Turbo Hybrid, and elongated version. Compared with the softer MPP foam construction in the Turbo family, EPP delivers the firmer, more connected feel. The Widebody is the forgiving choice for players who prioritize sweet-spot size, stability, quick hands, and consistency throughout the game.
