IANONI PRO4.0 Raw Carbon Elongated Pickleball Paddle — 150mm Extended Handle, USAPA Certified

Raw Carbon. Extended Reach. Maximum Spin.

The IANONI PRO4.0 is built for competitive players who want the highest spin potential available in a USAPA-certified paddle. Its raw carbon fiber face — uncoated, unfinished carbon — provides the roughest, most friction-generating surface in the IANONI lineup. More surface friction means more spin on every shot: more topspin on drives, more slice on drops, more angle on dinks. If spin is your weapon, the PRO4.0 is built around it.

The 150mm extended handle gives you more leverage on two-handed backhands and more reach on wide balls — a meaningful advantage for players who use a two-handed grip or who play a lot of baseline exchanges. USAPA certification means you can take it into any sanctioned competition without a second thought.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is raw carbon fiber and why does it generate more spin?
Raw carbon fiber is uncoated, unfinished carbon — the surface fibres are exposed rather than covered with a smooth finish. This creates a rougher, more abrasive surface that grips the ball more aggressively at contact, allowing players to impart more spin. It's the highest-friction face construction available in pickleball paddles, and it's why raw carbon paddles are favoured by spin-oriented competitive players.

Who benefits most from a 150mm extended handle?
Players who use a two-handed backhand benefit most — the extra handle length gives both hands a comfortable grip position. Players who play a lot of baseline exchanges also benefit from the additional reach on wide balls. If you use a standard one-handed grip and play primarily at the kitchen line, a standard handle length may be more comfortable.

How does the PRO4.0 compare to the IANONI PRO 3.0?
The PRO 3.0 uses a T700 carbon fiber face (coated) and a standard handle, making it a more versatile, all-round USAPA-certified option. The PRO4.0's raw carbon face and extended handle make it a more specialised choice for spin-oriented competitive players who want maximum friction and reach.
