The Franklin C45 Hayden Patriquin 14mm is an elongated, thermoformed paddle with a 14 mm PowerFlex core and a raw 45-degree T700 carbon surface. The thinner core gives a quick, crisp response, with touch maintained at the kitchen, and the double thermoform reinforces the structure and reduces vibration. It measures 16.4 x 7.6 in, weighs 7.7 oz on average and has a handle with a 4.15 in circumference.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%70
Approval from players35%65

The RR Score is not yet a precise figure. It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.
