Ronbus Tenon R2.16 Pickleball Paddle

Fast-hand widebody paddle. Widest face in the lineup, lightning-fast in rapid hand battles.

The Tenon series is Ronbus's 4th generation, and the name says it all: an EPP/EVA foam core connected via a mortise-and-tenon joint—borrowed from woodworking—surrounded by an elastic layer and attached to a high-strength carbon frame. The result is a stable, powerful paddle on hard swings, yet soft and quiet on blocks or dinks. No honeycomb, no plastic, no core crushing. On top is Ronbus's NanoBond raw carbon surface, nano-bonded for long-lasting texture and spin.

KEY TECHNOLOGIES

Mortise-and-Tenon EPP/EVA Core — Durable, Crush-Resistant

The mortise-and-tenon EPP/EVA foam core delivers power and durability right at the paddle's center, while the elastic layer attached to the carbon frame provides targeted flexibility—stable power on swings, soft dampening on light touches. Designed to resist delamination and core crushing common in thermoformed paddles.

NanoBond Raw Carbon Surface — Long-Lasting Spin

The nano-bonding network within the carbon fiber matrix offers high abrasion resistance, maintaining the spin-generating structure much longer than standard peel-ply raw carbon.

WHO IS THIS FOR?

Doubles players living at the kitchen line who win with hand speed. The 8" wide face and low 109 swing weight make the R2.16 the most forgiving, versatile Tenon paddle—built for blocking, countering, and speed-ups. Skill level 3.0 and above.
