Product description
Welcome to the future. The CRBN TruFoam Genesis 1 Pickleball Paddle—alongside the Genesis 2 and 3—introduces CRBN’s true “Gen-4” paddle technology. What qualifies them as “Gen-4”? The breakthrough TruFoam core, which replaces the traditional polypropylene found in most premium paddles with a fully foam-based structure. That’s right—the entire core is made from high-density foam. This innovation delivers a remarkably soft, controllable feel without sacrificing rebound or pop at any thickness. It also allows CRBN to fine-tune the paddle’s balance, sweet spot, and plow-through while eliminating issues like core crush, thickness limitations, and lengthy break-in periods.
The 16.5" CRBN 1 TF Genesis offers more power than the X-Series, yet its real strength lies in elevating every aspect of your game. That became even clearer once we saw how the TruFoam core works with the 7.35" T700 Raw Carbon Fiber face to mimic the feel and response of a tennis racquet—producing exceptional spin, precise control, and reliably low dinks. The extended 5.5" handle rounds out the design, giving players extra reach at the net and increased swing speed for put-aways.
We’re confident you’ll feel the difference the moment you pick it up.

Product description
As CRBN’s first standard-shaped “Gen-4” paddle, the TruFoam Genesis 2 Pickleball Paddle—alongside the Genesis 1 and Genesis 3—ushers the sport into a new era with the debut of the TruFoam core. This innovative core eliminates the lengthy break-in period and the familiar collapse of traditional polypropylene honeycomb cores, replacing them with a durable, high-density foam. The result is a design that’s easy to fine-tune for optimal performance, allowing engineers to dial in balance, pop, plow-through, sweet spot size, and softness without altering core thickness.
Built with this next-gen core, the 16" CRBN TF Genesis 2 offers the classic, standard paddle silhouette and more power than the X-Series—yet its purpose is to elevate every facet of play, not merely increase force. Its well-rounded performance comes from the synergy between the TruFoam core and the 7.85" T700 Raw Carbon hitting surface. The surface remains rigid and naturally textured, but now works in harmony with the new core to deliver a tennis-racquet-like response, creating added dwell time and spin for exceptionally crisp, controlled shots. The 5.25" handle completes the elevated design, placing your hand closer to the sweet spot for quicker resets and confident reloads.

Product description
Featuring an elongated 16.5" profile paired with a precise 5.25" handle, the CRBN TruFoam Genesis 3 Pickleball Paddle bridges the gap between the Genesis 1 and Genesis 2—delivering the same handle length as the Genesis 2 and the overall length of the Genesis 1. This design creates an ideal middle ground for players who prefer a generous hitting surface and want to experience the first Gen-4 full foam-core paddles on the market. At the heart of the paddle is the all-new TruFoam core, which eliminates the typical break-in period and long-term collapse of polypropylene cores. Instead, its high-density foam construction provides a larger sweet spot, enhanced cushioning, top-tier vibration dampening, and plenty of pop—all without relying on traditional core-thickness limitations.
The advantages of the CRBN TF Genesis 3 go even further. Its foam core delivers exceptional plow-through while pairing seamlessly with the rigid, naturally textured T700 Raw Carbon Fiber surface to create a tennis-racquet-like response that increases dwell time and spin generation. The result is a paddle that offers more pop than the X-Series, a softer and more forgiving feel than other paddles of similar thickness, and all the spin performance a player could want.

Product description
The CRBN TruFoam Genesis 4 Pickleball Paddle expands the Gen-4 series with a unique hybrid shape designed for fast, dynamic play—without losing the signature buttery feel that defines the TruFoam lineup. This model debuts CRBN’s new AeroCurve taper, which reduces drag at the paddle’s upper edge to deliver quicker reloads at the kitchen, smoother hand battles, and improved whip on drives. While listed at 16.2" by 7.75", our measurements put it slightly shorter, placing it between a standard and hybrid profile. No matter how you classify it, the Genesis 4 strikes an ideal balance between reach and responsiveness. The 5.5" handle offers a comfortable, familiar grip for both one- and two-handed shots.
Within the TruFoam family, the Genesis 4 naturally lands between power and precision. It’s faster than the elongated Genesis 1, more stable than the compact Genesis 2, and offers greater finesse than the power-focused Genesis 3. Like the rest of the lineup, it features CRBN’s 14mm patent-pending TruFoam core, delivering improved vibration dampening, a more durable sweet spot, and consistent pop across the entire face—all without the break-in period or fatigue common with traditional polypropylene honeycomb cores. Paired with a spin-heavy T700 Raw Carbon Fiber face, the Genesis 4 offers controlled aggression, a confident feel, and just the right amount of feedback.
