Advanced Next Gem™ Technology: Black Opal Elongated

Reach Further. Hit Harder. Finish Stronger.

The Black Opal Elongated is built for players who want to control every inch of the court. Featuring the same advanced Next Gem™ technologies as the original Black Opal, this elongated design delivers greater reach, added leverage, and heavier ball speed without sacrificing the connected feel that defines the Black Opal series.

Engineered for aggressive competitors, the longer handle and increased swing weight help generate explosive power on drives, effortless two-handed backhands, and confident put-aways when the pressure is on.

Why choose the Black Opal Elongated?

  • Extended reach for greater court coverage and attacking play
  • Longer handle for comfortable two-handed backhands
  • Increased swing weight for heavier drives and put-away power
  • Advanced Next Gem™ technology for connected feel and responsiveness

G4 Aerospace Solid Core

At the heart of the Black Opal Elongated is our proprietary G4 Aerospace Solid Core, a high-density closed-cell construction developed to maximize energy transfer, consistency, and responsiveness. Its 14mm profile delivers explosive acceleration while maintaining the fast hands and connected feel demanded by competitive players.

  • Clean, powerful contact
  • Responsive feel across the face
  • Fast reactions without sacrificing power

Power Gel™ Technology

Our proprietary Power Gel layer enhances energy return while maintaining exceptional feel, allowing you to accelerate through the ball with confidence. Combined with the elongated profile, it creates heavier drives, stronger put-aways, and effortless depth from anywhere on the court.

  • Increased put-away power
  • Explosive pace on drives
  • Responsive feel under pressure

Carbon Lite™ Construction

Built with an ultra-light Carbon Lite frame, the Black Opal Elongated maximizes stability while keeping the paddle quick through the air. The lightweight construction allows the elongated shape to generate additional leverage without feeling cumbersome during fast exchanges.

  • Lightweight maneuverability
  • Stable, confidence-inspiring performance
  • Optimized flex for greater energy return

Shock Shield™ Handle Technology

Shock Shield technology injects silicone directly into the handle to reduce unwanted vibration while preserving exceptional feel. The result is greater comfort, cleaner feedback, and increased confidence during long, competitive matches.

  • Reduced vibration
  • Improved touch and feedback
  • Greater comfort during extended play

Diamond Tough™ Surface

Our patent-pending Diamond Tough™ face material is engineered to significantly extend texture life, delivering consistent spin and control match after match. It provides the confidence to attack aggressively while maintaining the performance serious players demand.

Reach. Leverage. Power.

The elongated shape isn't just about extra reach. It's designed to help aggressive players create heavier shots, generate more leverage through the swing, and finish points with authority. Whether you're attacking from the baseline or reaching for a difficult volley at the kitchen, the Black Opal Elongated gives you the confidence to stay on the offensive.

Exclusive Neoprene Cover

Every Black Opal Elongated includes a premium Six Zero neoprene cover to help protect your paddle between matches and keep it performing at its best.

Cosmetic Notice

The Black Opal Elongated is offered at a reduced price due to a minor cosmetic blemish found on the throat of the paddle face around the printed logos.

This is purely visual and has no impact on the paddle's performance, durability, construction, or tournament approval. Every paddle meets the same quality and performance standards expected of the Black Opal series and is covered by our standard warranty.

Built for Competitors Who Attack

The Black Opal Elongated is designed for players who want to dictate rallies with reach, leverage, and controlled power. Every technology, every material, and every detail exists for one purpose: helping you take command of the court with confidence.

Product FAQ

The Black Opal is our most advanced paddle yet, featuring a new G4 Aerospace Foam Core and Power Gel layer that combine for explosive energy and precise control. It also includes Diamond Tough surface technology for unmatched spin longevity and Carbon Lite construction for lightweight speed. Compared to other models, it blends pro-level power with reliable control, making it ideal for players who want the best of both worlds.
The Black Opal is engineered for serious players, from competitive intermediates to top professionals. Its unique balance of control, power, and dwell time makes it accessible to developing players while still meeting the demands of elite athletes.
The G4 core is a floating solid foam design that transfers energy more efficiently than traditional polymer cores. This means faster hands at the net, a responsive sweet spot, and the ability to generate power without sacrificing control. The 14 mm design plays like a thicker paddle, offering the best of both speed and stability.
Power Gel is a custom-engineered performance layer built into the paddle face. It amplifies shot energy to add pop to drives and counters, while maintaining touch for dinks and drops. You get more depth and pace on offensive shots without losing finesse around the kitchen.
Yes. Shock Shield is a silicone injection system integrated directly into the handle. It absorbs vibration on impact, which reduces stress on the wrist, elbow, and shoulder. This improves comfort during long matches and builds player confidence in fast-paced play.
Diamond Tough uses real diamond particles infused into the paddle face, extending surface life up to four times longer than industry standards. This means your spin, bite, and texture will hold up match after match, giving you consistent performance far beyond most paddles.
The Black Opal strikes a rare balance. Carbon Lite construction makes it fast and maneuverable, while the solid foam core and Power Gel layer provide baseline power. The result is a paddle that feels light in hand but delivers explosive force when you need it.
The Black Opal is available exclusively in a 14mm thickness, but it’s intentionally engineered to play like a 16mm paddle. Our advanced G4 core, Power Gel layer, and Diamond Tough surface were designed to deliver the plush feel, dwell time, and control you’d expect from a thicker paddle, without sacrificing the fast response and dynamic power that define Six Zero performance. This unique construction gives you the best of both worlds: the touch and consistency of a 16mm with the speed and pop of a 14mm.
The Black Opal stands apart thanks to its proprietary technologies: the G4 core, Power Gel layer, and Diamond Tough surface. Built with aerospace-grade materials and advanced engineering methods, it delivers exceptional durability, enhanced spin, and a balanced play profile that adapts seamlessly to a variety of playing styles.
Each Black Opal paddle includes a built-in NFC chip that you can scan with your phone. It takes you to a registration page where the serial number is automatically entered and verified against our database. This ensures your paddle is authentic, protects you from counterfeits, and activates your warranty. It’s a simple way to secure your purchase and your peace of mind.

I thought I wouldn't be able to control this beast, but I was able to easily

I was honestly pretty hesitant before getting the Six Zero Black Opal Elongated. Everything I read made it sound like an absolute rocket launcher that would be tough to keep on the court, especially when trying to reset or dink at the kitchen.

First off, the cosmetic defect on mine is really not that bad at all—you barely even notice it unless you’re actively looking for it, and it definitely doesn't affect how it plays.

Before hitting the court, I added 1.5g of lead tape at 3 and 9 o'clock to open up the sweet spot a bit and slapped on an overgrip for some extra cushion.

Once I started playing, I was genuinely surprised. The power and pop are definitely there when you want to put a ball away or rip a drive, but the control is what blew me away. Drops from the baseline felt natural right out of the gate, and resetting hard drives was way easier than I expected. It just feels super stable and predictable.

The only real catch is that after a couple of hours of intense play, you might feel the weight a bit in your wrist or forearm with the tape and overgrip on there. But for the stability and plow-through you get in return, I think it's a great trade-off.

Bottom line: don't let the power hype scare you off. It plays and controls so good.

This thing is a weapon!

After using a Six Zero Double Black Diamond I was looking for a bit more pop and power... And I definitely found it! It will take a little to get used to it, but I'm already loving the feel of the paddle. I feel like it is going to help me elevate my game, so I'm really happy with the purchase.

So Far, So Good

I've now used the paddle twice. Love the pop and power, while at the same time having the control for resets and dinks. A great balance overall, and I'm excited to dial in my game as I adjust to the superior performance of the Black Opal.

Trying to tame the beast

Currently, the black opal is very difficult to enjoy playing with. Missing tons of shots both at the baseline and at the net since I am not consistently catching the ball in the sweet spot.
I had a hard time adjusting when I first received my six zero ruby, but after a few sessions the paddle clicked for me and it was my main paddle that I felt really confident with. Learning to use that paddle made me a better player. I bought the black opal paddle knowing the stigma and warnings about control issues, but hoping it will help me refine my technique by dialing in on precise ball connection. Remains to be seen. Also this thing is so heavy compared to the Ruby, I’m going to need to start lifting weights if I want compete in fast hand battles lol.

Longer handle, larger sweet spot, powerful

This new version of the Opal fixed my peeves with the original Opal. The handle is longer so more of my second hand fits and twoies are more consistent, and the sweet spot is noticably larger. A great balance of power and control.
