MÜVN-16HD Full Foam - Mint Gradient

(Includes paddle cleaner, perforated cushion replacement grip & neoprene cover)

GRUVN’s new MÜVN-16HD Full Foam (hybrid shape) is our new floating full foam core pickleball paddle featuring our unique triple-layer sandwich full foam core.  It is a high-performance paddle with a carbon fiber surface and a 16mm core. This paddle excels at placement and feel. A great balance of stability, controllable power, pop, spin, and dwell time. It is USAP PBCoR 0.43 Certified for tournament play.

Play Style
This paddle falls in that sweet spot of All-Court leaning power and low-tier power. It has great control and allows for consistent placement with a good amount of dwell time. The core provides a comfortable foamy feel compared to some other hollower feeling paddles, along with great stability. The triple-layer sandwich core (two outer layers of EPP and a middle layer of a more rigid foam material) provides a trampoline effect, providing a good amount of spring to the ball, but not too much where it’s uncontrollable. Great for all levels of players, including lower-level players learning to control full foam paddles, and top level players looking for a high-performance full foam paddle that has great placement and a solid amount of power, pop, and spin.

The Ultimate Hybrid Shape
Our custom hybrid shape is often mentioned as being the perfect shape for players who prefer hybrid paddles.  With a length of 16.2” and width of 7.8” and no taper, the shape provides a perfect mix of the control of wide body paddles and the power of elongated paddles. The 5.5” handle length allows for powerful two-handed backhands, and the rounded top of the paddle face gives players an aerodynamic feel.

Product Features
• Our unique triple-layer sandwich full foam core includes two outer layers of EPP, which is more elastic and good for ball control, and a middle layer that has a higher density foam material and is harder, which is beneficial for ball speed and power. Overall, it produces a trampoline effect, causing the ball to launch with more speed than a paddle with less spring.
(For those who played with our first full foam paddle, LAZR-16HD Solid Foam, that came out in May 2025 and tested at 0.44 PBCoR, this foam core is similar, but the middle foam layer is different. For our new full foam paddles, we are using a special glue to bond the core layers as well as the surface to improve the durability).
• Thermoformed sealed edges increase stability
• Foam injected walls are around the paddle’s edges, increasing the sweet spot and adding control
• Handle is honeycomb polypropylene to keep the weight down

How does the MUVN-16HD Full Foam compare to other GRUVN paddles?
The MUVN Full Foam series has a bit more control and dwell time than our LAZR Full Foam paddles (and a bit less power and pop), and some more power than our polypropylene paddle series (LAZR, MUVN, CRUZN).  Our LAZR-16HD Solid Foam paddle has more power (it also has a different core). That paddle tested at PBCoR 0.44. The limit has since been reduced to 0.43, and that paddle model can be played in tournaments until May 1^st, 2026.

This model comes with two color options: Black edge guard with a perforated cushion grip, and a gradient edge guard with a flat grip (also includes a replacement perforated cushion grip).

Replacement Grip Included for gradient edge guard optoin
A free perforated cushion grip is included with the gradient edge guard optoin. This can be used to replace the flat grip that comes with the paddle. Some of our customers prefer the perforated cushion grip, so they can remove the flat grip that is on the paddle and replace it with the replacement grip (perforated cushion grip) if they like.

Paddle Cover Included
A zippered neoprene cover with the GRÜVN logo to protect the pickleball paddle when not in play ($15 value!).

Paddle Cleaner Included
• Each carbon fiber paddle comes with a GRUVN paddle cleaner, which is a stick of rubber that is 2.5” x 2” x 1” in size, This is not for graphite or composite paddles). Rub it on your paddle surface to keep it clean and also maximize the spin. It isn't pretty, but your paddle will be after using it :)

** PADDLE CARE – IMPORTANT **
Your paddle can become damaged from extreme temperatures. Extreme cold temperatures can cause the hitting surface to become brittle and crack. Extreme high temperatures can soften the hitting surface and can cause delamination. This occurs when the hitting surface separates from the core. Do not leave your paddle out in the sun on a hot day, be sure to cover it from the heat or it can be damaged. Do not leave your paddle in your vehicle during the summer or winter.

(Different computer monitors and mobile phones display colors differently, so the color of your paddle may vary slightly from the representation on your screen)
