Echo
Free Custom Earplugs
With the first 1,000 Echo orders.
The Echo is our most powerful paddle yet, delivering explosive power on serves and drives with exceptional pop at the net. Its floating MPP foam construction features internal voids that increase dwell time, helping you shape the ball with more spin.
The EVA perimeter and internal weighting work together to create an exceptionally large sweet spot, delivering a solid, consistent response across the face. ArmorGrit+ embeds particles directly into T700 carbon fiber for high spin potential and long-lasting spin.
- High Power and High Pop Paddle. The Echo gives you big power on serves and drives, with plenty of pop when you need it on counters at the net.
- Floating MPP Foam with Internal Voids. The voids inside the Echo’s core provide noticeable dwell and a connected feel at contact.
- Stable on Off-Center Contact. Removing foam from the center of the core redistributes weight toward the perimeter of the paddle, helping it resist twisting and deliver a more consistent ball response across the face.
- ArmorGrit+. Particles embedded directly into the carbon fiber create a durable surface designed for high spin potential and long-lasting spin.

What the voids do
The diagram shows the voids inside the floating MPP foam core. Removing foam helps keep swing weight down, so the paddle feels more maneuverable. The void layout also gives the Echo its pocketing feel at contact.
The size and placement of the voids allow us to remove foam from the center of the core while maintaining weight around the perimeter. This helps balance lower swing weight with stability on off-center contact. The voids also increase dwell time, creating a pocketing sensation that helps you shape the ball with greater control.
The floating MPP core gives the Echo its lively response and high pop. If you like the hollow feel of an MPP foam paddle, you’ll recognize it right away, along with the deep, loud sound at contact.
A ring of EVA foam surrounds and supports the floating MPP core. This construction gives the Echo its exceptionally plush feel while helping deliver a solid, consistent response, even on off-center hits.
The built-in weights help maintain twist weight so the face stays steady on off-center contact.
Texture built into the face
ArmorGrit+ embeds particles directly into the Echo’s carbon fiber face. These are photos of the actual Echo surface.
The original ArmorGrit on the MPP Turbo uses a coating over a peel-ply texture. With ArmorGrit+, we embed the particles that create the texture directly into the carbon fiber.
The new USAP spin testing rules allow us to incorporate more aggressive surface texture than was previously possible under the old roughness restrictions. We’ve taken advantage of this opportunity with ArmorGrit+, creating a textured surface designed to generate exceptional spin from anywhere on the court.
ArmorGrit+ is engineered to be one of the highest-performing durable grit technologies on the market. By embedding the textured particles directly into the carbon fiber, we’ve created a surface designed to retain its spin performance through repeated play, with minimal spin loss over time.
