What started out as an exercise in aesthetics that had its origin in user feedback and suggestion has become a wonderful ABC/R variant. We don't do things for looks, we're actually moving away from what might be considered blings with shiny finishes (never had too many of these to begin with), and concentrating strictly on defense/duty oriented products.
While the original horizontal serrations on the ABC/R paddles are very effective (they're optimized to mitigate 12 o'clock to 6 o'clock movements), when the the finger's approach angle changes closer to 45 degrees and more, the horizontal serrations effectiveness is diminished.
ABC/R-AA has three different dimple sizes and depths, 30 dimples total. Symmetry is nice but in this case, doesn't serve us well. In order to maximize the large surface area of the original ABC/R design, we tastefully packed in as many dimples as possible, but not too many. Sometimes more isn't better, and bigger isn't better either. Placement and the shape of the object matter a great deal.

What the dimpled pattern offers is all around traction, regardless of the finger's position on the paddle, it is simply indifferent to the angles and directions of the finger's movement.
MSRP $42.00
