100% thermoforming technology with craftsmanship:
From the emergence of thermoforming technology to various hot forming technology paddles, core delamination and breakage have appeared one after another, so that most merchants have given up and changed to multi-stage cold and thermal pressing mold production process. Our 100% thermo forming technology has become one of the highest in the industry, and we are proud of it!
Features:
Become an aerial assaulter with the HUDEF Mage Pro Gen2 paddle and use your speed to outwit your opponents. The Mage pro Gen2 paddle will bring explosive power and impressive maneuverability to your game.
Exquisite craftsmanship:
Using 100% thermoforming technology elaborately crafted and decades of accumulated experience in manufacturing various types of paddles, we ensure the highest quality and performance of each paddle. Our process is strictly manufactured and tested in accordance with the highest international standards, and the production time is several times that of the multi-stage hot and cold mold process to ensure that every detail is perfect.
The perfect combination of unparalleled power and control:
It is known that DuPont Kevlar has toughness and durability. It has outstanding ductility and reinforcement in the field of local impact and frequent vibration. Its toughness makes it one of the best fiber materials at present, so it is often used in protective items such as police vests and sports equipment. Naturally, it has become one of the indispensable materials for paddles.
After several Kevlar materials have been tested and compared , we found out that the woven surface of 50% DuPont raw Kevlar and 50% TorayT700 carbon enhances their advantages and has better tension and control. Kevlar greatly improves the effect of power, while carbon fiber, due to its rigidity and interaction with Kevlar, greatly improves the player's ball control accuracy. The perfect combination of these two materials achieves perfect power and control. For players who like the dual functions of control and power, this is one of the indispensable qualities.
High-quality resin surface has the most durability and maximum spin
The durability and spin of the paddle surface are determined by the quality of the resin and the surface texture. Based on our many years of production experience, our engineers are very good at selecting and identifying the advantages and disadvantages of resin and the formulation, as well as the design of the spin texture, which ensures the durability of the surface spin and reaches to maximum spin.
High-performance and high-strength polypropylene honeycomb core
The professional high-strength polypropylene honeycomb core elaborately developed by our team uses 100% thermoforming technology. Under the action of high temperature and high pressure, the material will soften, thus changing the performance of the paddle, greatly increasing its power, and can firmly bond with the fiber to achieve impact resistance. It is not easy to delaminate with the fiber surface and the core is not easily broken, effectively improving the tension, strength and durability of polypropylene.
Simple yet luxurious appearance
The minimalist design of the HUDEF Pro series is inspired by Steve Jobs' "minimalist concept". This simple yet luxuriousdesign has been loved and appreciated by many consumers. The classic blue Kevlar and black carbon fiber are cross woven together, maintaining its low profile, and it looks particularly cool with its bright white rubber edges.
The most comfortable and durable molded one-piece handle
As we all know, in the early days, USA Pickleball had requirements for handle strength testing. The most common quality problem we encountered was handle breakage, which was very frequent. Later, we didn’t know why USAP cancelled this test. However, our team believes that even though USAP cancelled this test, we still believe that this problem should be solved for consumers, so our team insisted on successfully developing this most solid and durable molded one-piece handle and using it on our paddle. We are excited about this. We have completely solved the problem of easy breakage of the handle. According to the test of our engineers, it can bear a weight of 60KG, while ordinary handles can only bear a weight of about 30KG.
The handle of the paddle is the connection point between your body and the paddle, so we also pay special attention to its structural design and comfort. Our molded one-piece handle is designed with a minimum circumference of 4 1/8", so that it can fit all palms. If players want to use a larger handle, they can adjust it by adding grips to achieve the best comfort. Due to the molded one-piece handle, there is no need to install two gaskets on the top and bottom. It is tightly connected with the foam frame, paddle surface and core to achieve the most perfect stability, consistency and best shock absorption effect. It is one of the indispensable weapons for players with tennis elbow.
Lexurious Cover
Crafted from premium leather material, the Luxurious Cover is well designed to ensure durability and convenience. Its elegant camel brown design gives it a touch of sophistication and style.
Come on, aerial attackers, use the HUDEF Mage Pro Gen2 paddle to help you fly freely on the court and maintain your dominance!

The new Mage Pro Gen 2 is nicely balanced between power and control for me. My return of short service has a real zip in it. Love this paddle
Been using the paddle for 2 weeks one. It significantly improves my control and stability at the kitchen. Not only that my speed up and counter have also improved due to the lower swing weight. Overall a great paddle for anyone who is from 3.0 to 5.0 looking for a control paddle with great pop and power!!
This paddle is a perfect blend of power and aerodynamics: you can swing fast and easy and also don't sacrifice the pop! It's great for kitchen play with its light swing weight, but also great for baseline drops into the kitchen with solid spin and consistency. The sweet spot on the Mage Pro Gen2 is even bigger than the original! Well done Hudef!
Hudef continues to lead the pack in the ongoing refinement and enhancement of pickleball paddles. The new Mage Pro Gen2 exemplifies this dedication by incorporating the latest technologies, making it a standout Gen 2 paddle. Analysis I've conducted extensive research on the evolution of pickleball paddles, categorizing them from Gen 1 to Gen 3 and beyond. Generally, a paddle that is thermoformed and injected with foam is classified as Gen 2. However, many experts overlook the significance of hybrid shapes and weaved faces. The Mage Pro Gen2, with its thermoformed unibody construction and foam-injected edges, fits perfectly into the Gen 2 category. Performance One of the most striking aspects of the Mage Pro Gen2 is its combination of power and a soft feel. This could be attributed to the Kevlar/carbon weave face, the cushioned grip, or the thermoformed, foam-injected construction. The paddle delivers virtually no vibrations, even when hitting hard shots. Conclusion The HUDEF Mage Pro Gen2 is a top-tier paddle that combines innovative technology with superior performance. Its blend of power, soft feel, and spin capabilities make it an excellent choice for players looking to elevate their game. At $169.99, the HUDEF Mage Pro Gen2 Paddle is a bargain.

With great maneuverability, this crafty paddle can simply do it all. From the baseline, in transition, and up to the kitchen... the Gen 2 Mage structurally does the job with its great feel, pop, spinniness, and touch. It's ability to be adaptable yet reliable with its precision is outstanding! On both sides of the game, defensively and offensively, the Mage Gen 2 rises to the occasion and handles all styles and scenarios. It simply does it all and it does it all very well! This paddle will indeed perform amazingly and will be very well sought out! Bravo HUDEF PICKLEBALL!
I recently played with the new Mage Pro Gen2(16mm), and the Consistency with spin, touch, and speed were just right. I felt like it was the perfect design for kitchen play, and this is where the majority of the game is played. I would highly recommend this paddle to all levels of players, and especially recommend this paddle to players trying to improve their kitchen consistency.
I own several Hudef paddles in the Pro series and I like them all, a lot. But when I recently received the Mage Gen 2 16mm, I believe Hudef combined the best of all their models. I know it's supposed to be a hybrid, but I don't feel any loss or sacrifice in power. The control is impressive. I can hit soft, controlled shorts almost at will while smashing power shots without feeling any loss. I'm a big slicer/spinner. I serve backhand and forehand slices, as well as top-spin serves. I also slice many of my ground-stroke, and other, shots during rallies. So I'm always looking for a paddle that gives me the touch I need and can grab the ball without making it stick. Since I've been using the Mage Gen 2, my slices have been noticeably more pronounced. The Kevlar/Raw Carbon surface is game-changing. Also, the light weight is a plus with the fast swing speed allowing me to get to balls quicker and make more accurate shots. Hudef does a great job with its technology and produces excellent paddles. The Mage Gen 2 is their best.
It was a fun surprise to see Hudef take all the best ingredients to make the best recipe. First with the shape - it's their first flared shape which has been successful in other paddles. They used the looks and face of the newly released Viva Pro 3 - awesome. This paddle has better balance than the Mage 1 and feels a little lighter. I can tell my serves aren't as powerful as with the Viva paddles but I do like the sweet spot and feel in the hands. I was using the Viva Pro 3 for a while, so my drops with the Mage 2 were just falling short and I had to adjust - it's likely me and not the paddle though. I'm glad they came out with a lower swing weight and I think this is the paddle for me to try some tungsten on the sides just to see what happens. The ball pops well on my backhand flicks at the net - and my dinks have been good as well. I have the 16mm version
I own several HUDEF paddles from the Pro series including: The Viva Pro Gen 1, Gen 2 and Gen 3. I also own the Mage Pro which I found to be a good all around paddle. I recently got the Gen 2 Mage and it is a major change. It has great control and much more power than the previous model. It is now one of the 2 paddles I use daily, the other being the Viva Pro Gen 3.
The Mage meets Power! I loved the original Mage but it was lacking a little power and seemed to weaken around the top of the handle. Hudef answered both of those problems with the Mage Gen 2!! It has a Kevlar upgrade which creates the added power that the original mage was lacking and they also upgraded to the unibody paddle which takes away all of the weakening/breaking of the paddle! Thank you Hudef for listening to your customers and creating a paddle that doesn’t disappoint! You will be seeing me on the court all over with my new Mage Gen 2!!!
I'll admit, when I first received the Mage Pro Gen2 I was a bit disappointed as it's totally different than the gen1 version. That disappointment QUICKLY vanished when I used it! The paddle is very fast at the net combined with a great sweet spot. This translates to great results in hand battles where sometimes you barely get the paddle where it needs to be because someone just fired a hard shot at you. The Mage Pro Gen2 seems to magically (intended pun) still get the ball back across the net. Overheads are great as well. This paddle has the Hudef Power Plate technology in it and that translates to great power. Spin is real good as full swings from the base line drop nicely or curl in depending on your shot. It's a bit poppy for dinking but, once you dial it in the dividends it pays EVERYWHERE else are worth it! The fact that they included a 14mm version just shows that Hudef has it's ear to the market and is providing the paddles players want! Why are you still reading this review? GO GET ONE! You'll be glad you did!
