DJ Young Starion Gen 4 Pro+ 16mm Pickleball Paddle

Designed for power. Built for precision. Endorsed by the pros.
The APL DJ Young Starion Pro+ is the next evolution of performance — a Gen 4 thermoformed paddle built for elite control, explosive power, and unmatched consistency. Signatured by pro player Darrian Young, the Starion embodies a perfect fusion of engineering excellence and player insight, delivering a paddle that dominates every level of competition.

Crafted with Raw Carbon Fiber, the Starion Pro+ delivers incredible spin, responsiveness, and touch on every shot. The Gen 4 foam core, paired with injected foam around the edges and handle, creates a rock-solid sweet spot and minimizes vibration for ultimate control and comfort.

The ultra-soft, breathable PU leather grip ensures a firm hold through even the longest matches, while the raw carbon textured surface gives players the spin advantage needed to take command of the court.

Finished with a sleek blue edge guard, UV graphics, and a bold American Pickleball League aesthetic, this paddle doesn’t just perform — it stands out.
