As the flagship model of the Gen 4 TruFoam Waves line, the Waves 1 demonstrates exactly why CRBN considers TruFoam the future of paddle engineering. Rather than relying on honeycomb structures or delicate stabilizers, its full-foam Gen 4 TruFoam core provides exceptional consistency, long-term durability, and the highest legal power allowed under PBCoR 43. Its elongated 16.5" profile and extended 5.75" handle pair this power with a low swing weight, offering added reach and plenty of space for confident two-handed backhands when it’s time to take charge of a rally.

Within the Waves family, the CRBN TruFoam Waves 1 Elongated Pickleball Paddle stands out as the long-handle specialist—ideal for players seeking maximum extension on drives, overheads, and counterattacks. Its engineered T700 carbon fiber surface, reinforced with a subtle layer of fiberglass, enhances spin generation and dwell time, making heavy topspin drives and controlled roll dinks easier to execute. With performance-minded specs such as a 9.69" balance point, 5.88 twist weight, and 118–120 swing weight, the Waves 1 delivers a blend of stability and maneuverability that makes it a true asset from the baseline all the way to the kitchen.
