Overview
The Boulder Opal is the spin-hungry sibling in Six Zero's Next Gem series: a G4 aerospace solid foam core wrapped in a Carbon Lite frame, finished with a SharkSkin raw carbon face that bites the ball for consistent spin within a smooth USAP-approved surface. At 14 mm it keeps hand speed high at the kitchen while the Power Dwell tuning and Power Gel layer add pop off the face. If the Black Opal is the control-first Opal, the Boulder is the one built to grip and rip.
Highlights
- G4 solid foam core: a durable, high-density closed-cell core that transfers energy more efficiently than honeycomb, in a thinner profile for quicker hands
- SharkSkin raw carbon face: a motorsport-inspired texture with fine powdered aluminium oxide worked into the surface for exceptional, durable ball grip and consistent spin
- Power Gel layer: a proprietary shock-absorbing, elastic layer that accentuates pop and power off the face
- Shock Shield grip: silicon injected into the handle to dampen vibration and improve feel, easier on the arm
- Carbon Lite frame: an ultra-light carbon frame that maximises the striking area and keeps the swing weight at 115
- 14 mm build: the speed of a thin paddle with the stability the solid core delivers
