Power players with an aggressive, full-swing style—if you love creating miracles through pure power and overpowering opponents with proactive offense, Hongtianlei's swing speed and forward drive will keep up with your every shot.
High-forgiveness EPP composite core—when hitting near the edge or off the sweet spot, shots won't drastically veer off course, resulting in fewer errors and an easy-to-handle feel.
The EPP bead cushioning structure dampens impact vibration, reducing wrist and elbow soreness during long playing sessions.
Players with an established style who want direct, firm feedback on sweet-spot hits will find their option in the MPP line (Bianhua / Cike); seethe links below.
Traditional PP honeycomb cores have a lattice structure; after extended play, the center collapses, the sweet spot shrinks, and dead spots appear—the paddle isn't broken, but the feel is ruined first.
Impact vibrations travel straight up the handle to your wrist, leaving your forearm sore after just one match.
During the break-in period, the feel is muted; by the time it plays smoothly, half a month has passed.
Strong EPP damping and shock absorption—when hitting the edge or off the sweet spot, shots won't drastically veer off course, minimizing errors and making it easy for beginners and casual players to pick up.
The EPP particle cushioning structure dampens hitting vibrations, while the surrounding EVA middle buffer absorbs ball impact—reducing soreness in your wrists and elbows during long sessions.
Longer dwell time delivers a soft touch on dinks, drop shots, and resets, giving you complete confidence during delicate play at the net.
Gen 5 thermoformed unibody molding, with the frame and handle integrally cured for more direct power transfer—fast swing speed, powerful forward drive, keeping aggressive pressure on serves and third shots.

How to choose between the two lines: this guide is all you need.
| Dimension | EPP (Hongtianlei / Chidao) | MPP (Bianhua / Cike) | Honeycomb Core (Industry Common Knowledge) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Forgiveness & Sweet Spot | Strong vibration damping: When hitting near the edge or off the sweet spot, the ball is less prone to wild deflection, resulting in fewer errors—easy to pick up for beginners and recreational players. | Polarized performance: Powerful ball output when hitting the sweet spot; off-center hits amplify vibration and make returns prone to losing control, demanding better stroke mechanics—suitable for advanced players. | The honeycomb grid disperses impact over a larger area; feedback when hitting off-center or near the edge follows a different path from EPP/MPP. Whether the specific landing spot is stable or floaty depends on the paddle surface and panel thickness. (Structural characteristics, not a benchmark comparison with this paddle) |
| Shock Absorption & Wrist Protection | Granular cushioning structure reduces impact vibration, minimizing wrist and elbow soreness during extended play. | High rebound stiffness transmits direct, solid feedback into the arm, which can easily cause arm fatigue during extended play. | A hollow honeycomb layer combined with carbon fiber facing creates a different vibration transmission path than foam cores; whether it feels softer or stiffer depends on the facing and adhesive layers. (Structural characteristics, not a benchmark comparison with this paddle) |
| Feel & Control | Strong ball pocketing: Longer contact dwell time delivers a soft touch on dinks, drops, and resets—ideal for delicate net play and defensive rallies. | Crisp and responsive with direct feedback: Instant ball release upon contact allows you to clearly sense the exact point of impact. | Crisp ball release with short dwell time; direct directional feel for placement, with the forgiveness window concentrated primarily around the sweet spot. (Structural characteristics, not a benchmark comparison with this paddle) |
