Prado Cacique 16mm Raw Carbon Pickleball Paddle – MPP Foam Core

The Cacique is Prado's most advanced paddle — engineered for players who want elite performance without sacrificing comfort. Whether you're grinding through a long tournament day or managing arm fatigue, the Cacique's Gen 4 MPP foam core absorbs shock at contact, reducing vibration and protecting your elbow while keeping your touch sharp.

Its wide-body shape expands the sweet spot for more consistent contact on off-center hits, while the Raw Carbon T700 face generates exceptional spin and control on every shot. This is the paddle for players who want to play longer, feel better, and compete at the highest level.

Named after the Cacique — the chief of the Taíno people — this paddle carries the spirit of leadership and strength onto the court.
