RPM Q2 16mm Widebody

The RPM Q2 16mm Widebody is part of the launch lineup of RPM's new Q Series, developed in collaboration with legendary paddle engineer and reviewer John Kew. Engineered as a refined full-foam performance paddle, the Q2 was built to deliver a more powerful and predictable response across the face, balancing controlled aggression, accessible power, and long-term durability. At its core, the Q2 refines full-foam construction through strategic material tuning, manipulating foam density, firmness, and rebound characteristics in targeted areas of the paddle to deliver enhanced torsional stability, broader forgiveness, and a firm, connected feel preferred by high-level players. Its widebody shape maximizes face width for the largest possible sweet spot, while the thicker 16mm core adds a softer touch and greater control for resets and dinks without sacrificing power, resulting in a paddle designed for competitors who value elite stability, consistency on off-center contact, and predictable performance from baseline drives to fast-paced kitchen exchanges.
