Viking's SWØRD family of paddles, formerly the Ozone, are built for players with a strong tennis background who have a faster swing speed and are looking for the optimal combination of maneuverability, power, and control.
The SWØRD C40, the pro model, is the OG paddle for tennis-playing converts. The C40 firm core (formerly Mid+) provides an excellent balance between power and control while the relatively smaller head size offers enhanced all-around maneuverability. A standout feature on all Sword models is the longer handle which provides a better grip on the two-handed backhand, a marquee weapon for the modern player.
