RPM Ella Oh Pink V2 Widebody 16mm Pickleball Paddle

The RPM Ella Oh Pink V2 16mm Widebody takes a performance-first approach to spin, power, and stability. Designed for advanced and competitive players, this premium RPM pickleball paddle combines a forgiving widebody face with technology intended to make aggressive play feel more predictable.

RPM equips the paddle with its CarbonBite carbon fiber surface, providing the grit needed to grip the ball and generate substantial spin. In pickleball, RPM means revolutions per minute, or how quickly the ball rotates. More spin can help players rip aggressive topspin shots while giving the ball a trajectory that brings it back toward the court. However, higher RPM alone does not guarantee better results; swing path, paddle angle, timing, and a smooth follow-through all contribute to effective spin.

Beneath the face, RPM combines its Axial Carbon Layup with a 16mm Tri-Density Core and enhanced EVA foam ring. This foam paddle design creates a plush feel while supporting a generous sweet spot and added stability. There is still plenty of pop available when it is time to attack, but the thicker core helps keep that power manageable during resets and controlled exchanges.

The widebody shape measures 16" long and 8" wide, while average weight comes in at 7.9 oz. A 109 swing weight and 7.3 twist weight further contribute to a blend of quick handling and stability, including when contact moves away from the center of the surface.

Players who love combining power with heavy spin should find plenty to appreciate here. Rather than creating a one-dimensional power paddle, RPM built the Friction Pro V2 to deliver an attacking response while retaining the control and softer feel competitive play demands.
