Engineered internally from the inside out, the new Gherkin Full Foam paddle introduces a fresh approach to next step in Full Foam (Gen 4) paddle technology.

At its core is our privately sourced NCP Foam, a Nanocellular Polymer Foam material that ensures consistency, reliability, and repeatable performance from paddle to paddle. The DRACO is currently the only paddle on the market that uses this newly sourced material.

Unlike the generic beaded foam material that the rest of the market currently is flooded with, our NPC Foam delivers a solid-state, structurally rigid and consistent, long-term durable option compared to any other EPP type foam in the market.

Our Floating Piston Construction allows the foam to work independently within the structure, creating impressive power on full swings while preserving precise touch on controlled finesse. The DRACO loads and releases energy efficiently, is extremely maneuverable/customizable (112 Swing weight Avg), and incredibly stable (6.7 Twist Weight Avg).

Our updated hybrid shape blends elongated reach with a generous sweet spot, providing confident power from the baseline, quick hands at the net, and massive stability out the box before any player customizations.

The DRACO represents Gherkin’s first iteration to the evolution in foam-based paddle technology.
