The Vortex+ comes in the matte black that is standard for the Vortex line with a red Xenon logo. A 370g weighting, but with the weighting towards the handle, this paddle is extremely easy to move and generate quicker paddle head speed from the baseline.
By having the weight in the handle, the paddle feels lighter but has the benefit of added mass for drives. This is a paddle that would be ideal for a player looking for more of a control paddle and will generate the power themselves on drives.
Like all Xenon paddles, the standard features are:
18" length
4 1/4" grip size
6 1/2" grip length
Medium core
Anti-vibration construction to reduce arm/elbow pain
