The Enhance DUO Elongated (often searched as enhance duo or enhance duo paddle) is a 16mm DuoFoam Ridge Core paddle with elongated reach, a 5.7-inch handle, and denser foam feel than the Turbo line. $175 to $155 with code PRH (Save $20). Our score: 8.7/10. Most players should still start with the DUO Widebody for hands and forgiveness.
The Verdict
Dense DUO feel with elongated leverage.
This is the DUO that feels best when you have time to swing — serves, drives, and two-handed backhands are the reason to choose it. After thorough on-court evaluation, the Enhance DUO Elongated is a strong fit for players who want duo control/power but prefer elongated reach — see category scores below for power, control, spin, and feel.
If you're comparing it against other foam-core paddles, it's one of several great foam core paddles we've played this year.

Performance Scores
PRH On-Court Feel
The DUO Elongated has a heavier, more planted feel than the Turbos. It does not have the same trampoline crack as MPP, which is a good thing if you want controlled power instead of surprise pop. The ball feels more connected on resets and drops, but the paddle asks more of your hands when speed-ups come at your body.
Serves and full drives are where the elongated length pays off. In tight kitchen exchanges my brother still prefers the Widebody DUO — the Elongated wants a cleaner swing path and a little more preparation time.
Performance & Testing
The Enhance DUO Elongated went through our standard on-court protocol - drills, rec play, and at least one tournament match. Scores reflect consensus feedback, not a single reviewer's opinion.
Grit & Durability
The DUO’s EPP/EVA ridge core and 365-day internal foam warranty are the durability story. Face grit is still raw carbon, so do not treat it like permanent-grit tech.
Who It's For
Best for elongated-shape players, two-handed backhands, and anyone who wants denser Enhance foam (not hollow Turbo pop). If you only searched enhance duo without a shape, start Widebody unless you already know you want reach. Skip if you want the easiest DUO or max hand speed.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Dense, connected foam feel
- Strong power without the extreme hollow response
- Good spin and dwell
- 5.7-inch handle for two-handed backhands
- 365-day internal foam warranty
Cons
- Highest swing weight in the DUO line
- Slower in fast hands battles
- Less forgiving than DUO Widebody
- Not as explosive as MPP Turbo
- Higher price than the Turbo line
Bottom Line
A dense-feeling foam power paddle for elongated-shape players — not the default DUO for most doubles hands battles.
The DUO Elongated is good for the right player, but the DUO Widebody is the version more people should start with. Use PRH for $155 either way.
