The Edge 18k MAX paddle takes everything you love about the Edge 18K and amplifies it with a wider paddle face to deliver more forgiveness, more control, and more confidence on every shot. Built for players who demand precision without sacrificing margin, the Edge 18k MAX gives you a larger sweet spot and added stability — making it easier to reset, block, and dig from anywhere on the court.
Like the original, the Edge 18K MAX features Diadem’s revolutionary 3D 18K carbon fiber face. This advanced triaxial weave uses three interwoven yarns at 60-degree angles, maximizing spin potential from every contact point and angle. Whether you’re carving sharp angles at the kitchen or driving through the court, the textured 18K surface delivers the control and bite you need to stay one step ahead.
Weighing in at 8.0oz with a 16mm thick core, the Edge 18k MAX provides a stable, plush feel without losing the quick reaction time needed in fast-paced rallies. The wider shape improves off-center hit performance, giving you more forgiveness at the edges without compromising touch at the net.
Outfitted with the Edge Shield Pro edge guard, the Edge 18k MAX offers enhanced durability and corner protection while maintaining a sleek and professional look. Whether you're a strategic soft game specialist or a counter-punching defender, this paddle gives you the confidence to play your game — and win your way.
Make every shot count — with the Diadem Edge 18K MAX.
The MAX shape is crafted for players who want maximum forgiveness, control, and confidence on every shot. With a wider paddle face measuring 8.2 inches (compared to the standard 7.5 inches), it offers a larger sweet spot, making off-center hits more consistent and effective.
The shorter overall length of 15.7 inches (vs. 16.4 inches standard) enhances maneuverability at the net, while the 4.9-inch grip (shorter than the standard 5.3 inches) provides better handling for players who prefer a more compact hold.
Whether you're blocking, dinking, or driving, the MAX shape delivers increased surface area and stability without compromising control.
