CRBN 3 TruFoam Waves Pickleball Paddle

The Next Evolution in Foam-Core Paddle Design: Introducing the CRBN TruFoam Waves.

Building on the groundbreaking success of the TruFoam Genesis, the Waves sets a new benchmark for what a paddle can achieve. As the latest 4th Generation (Gen-4) paddle, Waves uses a revolutionary 100% foam core—no honeycomb, no stabilizers, no compromises. By moving past outdated materials and fragile construction methods, Waves represents the pinnacle of foam-only paddle technology and delivers performance unlike anything before it.

To ensure we’re on the same page, here’s how we classify paddle generations:

• Gen-1: Cold-pressed honeycomb polypropylene paddles.
• Gen-2: Hot-pressed thermoformed honeycomb polypropylene paddles.
• Gen-3: Foam-enhanced paddles with foam injected, inserted, or adhered to other internal core materials (like honeycomb, ribs, stringers, etc.).
• Gen-4: 100% foam core

Unmatched Durability & Consistency:

Wave goodbye to core crush. The patent-pending TruFoam core technology is engineered to be stronger and more reliable than any previous generation. Unlike honeycomb cores or hybrids that break down over time, the Waves’ 100% foam core maintains its structure and performance, match after match.

By eliminating weak points such as ribs, stringers, or other stabilizers, the Waves achieves a level of durability and consistency that older core technologies simply can’t match. From day one, performance is rock-solid and it stays that way—no “break-in” period, no drop-off.

Maximum Spin & Dwell:

Spin isn’t just about surface grit—it starts with the core. The Waves is engineered to replicate the feel of tennis racket strings, maximizing dwell time and flex for the ultimate in spin generation. You’ll feel the ball sit on the paddle longer, giving you the ability to shape shots with precision and confidence.

Maximum Power Within the Rules:

The Waves takes power to the next level. Unlike overpowered paddles that sacrifice control, the Waves is designed to deliver the maximum power allowed for tournament play—right up to the legal limit under PBCor 43. This means you’ll get every ounce of power you need without losing command of the court.

The result is a paddle that gives you explosive drives and put-aways, while still offering the control necessary to win points consistently. Balanced, powerful, and tournament-ready—the Waves is the performance standard for Gen-4 paddles.

Carbon Fiber + Fiberglass Construction:

At the surface, Waves combines a raw T700 carbon fiber layup with an additional layer of fiberglass reinforcement. This unique blend enhances strength, responsiveness, and durability while maintaining the crisp feel and spin that players demand. The hybrid construction provides the perfect complement to the all-foam TruFoam core, creating a paddle that is as strong as it is dynamic.

Thickness Simplified:

No more guessing between 12mm, 14mm, or 16mm paddles. With TruFoam technology, thickness is no longer a limitation. The Waves is built at 14mm, carefully tuned for the ideal balance of power and control. Thanks to foam’s adaptability, performance can be fine-tuned internally without relying on varying thicknesses—simplifying the choice for players while maximizing consistency.
