Discover the TFG4 Difference. The CRBN⁴ TruFoam Genesis is the latest innovation in foam-core paddle design. It introduces a brand-new Hybrid AeroCurve shape—engineered for faster hands, increased swing speed, and unmatched versatility. With the same 100% TruFoam™ core technology as the original Genesis models, the CRBN⁴ brings next-level speed and feel to all-court players who want performance without compromise.
Hybrid AeroCurve Shape
The AeroCurve design tapers into a curved upper edge, reducing air resistance and enhancing maneuverability. It's CRBN’s most aerodynamic paddle yet—perfect for quick exchanges at the kitchen and powerful drives off the bounce. By bridging the gap between elongated and widebody shapes, this hybrid profile gives you speed, stability, and control in one balanced design.
All-Court Versatility
Drop, dink, drive—it does it all. The CRBN⁴ is ideal for dynamic players who need a paddle that adapts. Whether you’re finishing points or defending against power hitters, this paddle delivers consistency and feel shot after shot.
100% TruFoam™ Core Technology
CRBN’s patent-pending TruFoam™ Genesis Core is what defines Gen-4 paddle technology: no honeycomb, no plastic, no compromises. It’s engineered for a plush feel, elite stability, and consistent pop—without the “break-in period” of traditional cores. The foam structure resists crush and retains its shape, meaning you get peak performance from your first game and beyond.
Why Choose the Genesis Series?
- Gen-4 Technology: The first 100% foam-core paddle approved for tournament play, designed to outperform and outlast traditional honeycomb paddles.
- Spin + Control: Engineered to replicate tennis racket dynamics with exceptional dwell time, allowing skilled players to shape shots with confidence.
- Controlled Power: Hits harder than CRBN’s X Series, yet remains tame enough for precision play. Built for balance—not just brute force.
- Durability & Consistency: No core breakdown. No weak points. Just reliable performance every time you step on court.
- Precision Thickness: 14mm standard. We tune power and control via foam density and structure—not by stacking up unnecessary millimeters.
Best-in-Class Surface
The CRBN⁴ face uses a unique raw T700 carbon fiber layup—reinforced with fiberglass for added strength. This advanced peel-ply texture enhances grip on the ball while maintaining a buttery-soft feel on contact. It’s CRBN’s most responsive paddle surface yet, giving you optimal spin, touch, and control.
New Ergonomic Handle System
- 5.5" Standard Handle: Comfortable length for one- or two-handed play
- PU Stint Insert: Replaces foam for improved structural feel
- 6mm Diameter: Creates a full and stable grip
- Higher Grip Wrap: For added comfort and control
The CRBN Advantage
Designed in Costa Mesa, CA by a team of passionate engineers and players, the CRBN⁴ is the result of 200+ prototypes and 18 months of R&D. From rapid in-house prototyping to elite-level testing, every detail of the Genesis series is optimized for performance and built to last.
The CRBN⁴ TruFoam Genesis isn’t just another paddle. It’s a step forward. The future is foam—and the game is changing.
