The CR series feature an oval shape for forgiving fell and energy return, it is considered an ALL COURT paddle Shape for a mix of power and control. The Dunlop Series 5 paddles are a hot fused mono body thermoformed paddle which is a One shot fused mono-body carbon fiber production, using epoxy resin coated laminates fused together around the core materials by heat to form a seamless structure. This increases strength, durability and performance due to precise control of flex, mass and reinforcement.

Dunlop spent much time in research and development before entering the pickleball paddle market. Dunlop's philosophy was to separate the paddle into 4 parts.... the frame, face, texture and core. Each part could then be optimized independently for the desired playability. Dunlop embraced new materials, technologies and construction which lead them to superior manufacturing and superior paddle quality
