We loved the original Series Three, so when we heard that the Proton Series Three - Project Flamingo was essentially that paddle on steroids, we had to give it a go—boy does this thing provide. With the same shape and similar materials to the Series three, Project Flamingo introduces an updated core and a slightly-more textured hitting surface to promise even more power in a proven package. This new “Velocity Core” measures in at 15mm thick to harness enough power through rebound and pop to help this paddle earn its quickly growing reputation as one of the most aggressive on the market, while still enabling us to keep our shots on the court.
Speaking of between the lines, the 16.5” Proton Series Three - Project Flamingo helps us keep all of our passes, resets, and slams between the lines through a thoughtful combination of features. The aforementioned core offers an expanded sweet spot for consistent response and plenty of vibration reduction, while the 7.5” wide hitting surface, with its long-lasting enhanced roughness, promises the spin RPM’s we need to dominate with precise power. The 5.375” handle completes this powerful and poppy paddle by keeping our hand close to the sweet spot without hurting our ability to reach tricky dinks.
Actual grip sizes may vary up to 1/8"
