At Centaur Republic, we are committed to crafting top-tier paddles with cutting-edge technology while keeping prices accessible to all players. Comparable high-end paddles typically retail for around $280. But thanks to our exceptional supply chain management, we’re offering the Striker and Guardian at a special promotional price of just less than $100 per paddle, delivering premium performance without the premium price tag.
We offer two series of paddles depending on the thickness of the paddle core.

It’s the perfect blend of precision and forgiveness that defines the Guardian series.

Color Availability Notice:
The titanium fiber comes in golden and silver variations, with color being the only difference. Please note that availability of each color is not guaranteed and depends on current inventory at the time of your order.
