Enhance EPP Turbo Elongated 16mm Pickleball Paddle

The Enhance EPP Turbo 16mm Elongated Pickleball Paddle gives power-focused players a full foam core design without the premium cost often attached to this construction style. Its Full Floating Foam Core uses an EPP foam center surrounded by an EVA foam ring, creating a hollow feel with lively pop while maintaining a connected feel on the ball. Internal perimeter weighting helps increase stability, improve twist resistance, and make the sweet spot more forgiving across the paddle face.

The CFC layup combines carbon fiber, fiberglass, and carbon fiber, while raw T700 carbon fiber surface texture adds bite for good spin and confident shot shaping. Rather than chasing experimental manufacturing processes, the Turbo line focuses on optimized construction and maximum performance at an accessible price. The result is high power with enough power control for drives, counters, dinks, and deeper placement from around the court.

At 16.5" long and 7.5" wide, the elongated shape supplies added reach and leverage. Manufacturer specifications list a 7.8-8.0 oz weight range, 116-120 swing weight, 6.25+ twist weight, 4.1" grip circumference, 5.7" handle length, and 16mm core thickness. Those measurements give the EPP Turbo a balanced combination of maneuverability, stability, and offensive performance.

Enhance Pickleball also offers EPP Turbo Hybrid and EPP Turbo Widebody shapes for players wanting different paddle width, handle length, and sweet spot characteristics. The MPP Turbo uses softer MPP foam for a more elastic, springy response, while the EPP Turbo offers a firmer, more connected character. Independent KewCOR testing of the original Turbo lineup placed the tested paddles between 0.416 and 0.419, reinforcing the line’s high-power positioning.

At a current retail price of $119.99, the EPP Turbo targets players seeking premium-model performance at a more accessible price.
