Franklin's C45 Dynasty is the paddle Hayden Patriquin competes on — and the Year of the Horse Edition wraps that tour-level build in a red and gold limited design celebrating the Lunar New Year. The 16mm PowerFlex core pairs a precision polymer base with an inner foam layer for extra pop, while the double-thermoformed unibody keeps the whole paddle rigid and vibration-free.

The T700 carbon fiber face is applied at a 45-degree peel-ply angle, giving you a naturally consistent grit across the entire surface for heavy spin and precise shot-making. At 16.4" long with a 5.6" handle, it's built for two-handed backhands and maximum reach.

Overview
Year of the Horse limited edition in red and gold.
16mm PowerFlex polymer core with inner foam layer for pop and control.
T700 carbon fiber face at a 45° angle for consistent spin texture.
Double-thermoformed unibody for strength and reduced vibration.
Elongated shape with 5.6" handle for reach and two-handed shots.
USAP and UPA-A approved for tournament play.

45° Carbon Surface
T700 carbon fiber peel-ply texture laid at a 45-degree angle — the C45 namesake. The angled weave creates a uniform grit across the whole face, maximizing spin potential and shot precision without hot spots.

PowerFlex Core
A 16mm precision polymer core with an inner foam layer. The foam adds pop on drives while the polymer base keeps resets soft and controlled — plus extra structural integrity through the core.

Double Thermoformed Unibody
The paddle is thermoformed twice, not once — fusing face, core, and handle into a single rigid structure. Stronger, more durable, and noticeably less vibration than single-process builds.

Tournament Approved
USAP and UPA-A approved — legal in every major tournament.

Shape
Elongated at 16.4" long and 7.6" wide with a 5.6" handle. The long handle fits two hands comfortably for backhands, and the extra length gives you reach at the kitchen and leverage on overheads.

Final weight range: 7.6–8.0 oz.
