Overview
The Q2 Hybrid Curve Top brings RPM's full-foam Q Series into a hybrid frame with a rounded top edge. Co-designed with paddle engineer John Kew, it wraps a moulded EPP foam core in a curved head shape that keeps the balance a touch more centred and the paddle quick through the hitting zone: a forgiving, manoeuvrable hybrid that still delivers the plush, connected feel and predictable power the Q2 line is built on.
Highlights
- Hybrid curve-top shape: rounded top edge keeps the paddle quick and manoeuvrable with a traditional, forgiving feel
- Full-mould EPP foam core: 16 mm of precision-moulded foam for a plush, connected feel and predictable power
- TPU perimeter inserts: denser and more elastic than standard EVA, tightening torsional twist and widening the sweet spot
- CarbonBite surface: RPM's high-grit carbon fibre finish for heavy topspin and biting slices
