Description
The Avior by Orbit is a cutting-edge pickleball paddle built around a high-friction carbon surface that helps players add real spin and control to every shot [1]. Its 16mm thick polypropylene core delivers durability and a soft, responsive feel, giving you a clean blend of power and touch at the net and from the baseline. The rectangular shape with rounded edges widens the sweet spot, so off-center hits still land with consistency and pace. The 8×8 mm honeycomb cell size keeps the paddle light yet solid, which helps during fast-hands battles and quick serves.
Carbon fiber construction gives the Avior both strength and quickness, two things that matter most in rapid exchanges. The raw carbon finish boosts swing speed and precision while giving the paddle a sleek, professional look on the court. It weighs between 7.9 and 8.3 ounces and is shaped for extended reach and a secure, comfortable grip. That balance makes it well-suited for competitive play, where every point counts.
With strong ratings in control (96), power (95), and spin (94), the Avior stands out as a top-tier choice for serious players looking to sharpen their game. Designed in the USA, the Avior by Orbit is built for competitors ready to take their pickleball to the next level. Read more about the Avior by Orbit pickleball paddle here.
Frequently Asked Questions
