Why this paddle
Kevlar-carbon response for attack-first play.
VIVA PRO GEN 3 pairs a Kevlar + T700 face with a 16mm elongated format for players who build points around drives, counters, spin, and finishing pace.
Kevlar + T700 raw carbon face
Choose this face construction when you prefer a firmer, more direct response than a T700-only VIVA model.
One 16mm configuration
The current specification lists a 16.5 x 7.4 in elongated shape with a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core.
Quick answers
Common questions about VIVA PRO GEN 3.
Short answers about approval, feel, included items, and how this model compares with SCF paddles.
Is VIVA PRO GEN 3 USA Pickleball approved?
The current product page lists this model as USA Pickleball Approved. Confirm the exact model on the official equipment database before sanctioned play.
How is GEN 3 different from VIVA PRO GEN 2?
GEN 3 uses a Kevlar + T700 face. GEN 2 keeps a T700-only raw-carbon face, so face construction is the clearest reason to choose between them.
When should I compare another HUDEF shape?
Compare APEX if you prefer a wider face, or VIVA SCF1 if you want the elongated VIVA format with HUDEF’s SCF core construction.
