Proton Project Peacock Year of the Horse Elongated Pickleball Paddle
- In stock, ready to ship
- Backordered, shipping soon
The 2026 Year of the Horse Limited Edition takes everything that makes the Project Peacock great and dresses it for the Lunar New Year. Under the graphics it's the same paddle — Proton's proprietary high-density Atomic foam core for consistent responsiveness and longer dwell time, built to resist breakdown and delamination far longer than traditional poly cores. The roughness-enhanced aerospace-grade carbon fiber face grabs the ball for heavy spin on serves, drives, and rolls.
What sets this one apart is the face: a galloping horse graphic with "Year of the Horse 2026" printed on the carbon, in the same teal-to-purple Peacock colorway with a purple grip. It's dual-stamped — UPA Pro Certified for PPA/MLP play and USA Pickleball approved at PBCoR .43 — so it's tournament-legal everywhere
