No, the Rift One Pro itself does not contain any electronics or sensors. It's a high-performance paddle engineered with traditional, premium materials.
However, it is a smartly designed paddle. The Rift One Pro is the direct result of an extensive data collection process that is unique in the industry. We test our designs in-house using a fleet of proprietary smart paddles and AI-processed video footage from thousands of real player matches. This allows us to gather objective data on swing mechanics, impact location, and shot performance.
We use that data to engineer a paddle with features like a wider sweet spot and optimized balance—creating a tool that is perfectly tuned for the improving player, based on proof, not opinion.
The RIFT 1 Pro is engineered using a proprietary cold-press process that fuses the T700 carbon fiber surface with a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core. After testing hundreds of material combinations, we developed this construction to maximize dwell time, control, and spin consistency. We also designed the paddle with a wider face—without adding weight—to increase shot consistency, reduce mishits, and give players more forgiveness without sacrificing speed. The result is a paddle built for players who want precision and power in every shot.
Yes! While the RIFT 1 Pro was specifically designed with 3.0 to 5.0 level players in mind, it’s suitable for all skill levels. Its lightweight build, wider face, and precision-engineered materials give beginners a more forgiving feel, while offering the control and responsiveness that experienced players demand.
The RIFT 1 Pro weighs approximately 230g (±10g), striking the perfect balance between power and control.
