# Shard Gamma

Pickleball · Shard

RR Score 78 out of 100, Good Good Updated on 10/05/2026

The Gamma Shard uses NeuCore technology, with a core of large cells that are 25% thicker, at 5/8 in, for a soft, quiet, reactive feel. The graphite face increases touch and keeps the ball on the paddle for an instant longer, giving control and more spin. It weighs about 7.75 oz, measures 15 7/8 in and has a 4 3/4 in handle with a 4 1/8 in circumference and a Honeycomb Cushion grip.

**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.
