Arronax's KVL005 Paddle Crosses 1,000 Units Sold in Malaysia
Andrew LeeArronax says its KVL005 paddle has crossed 1,000 units sold in Malaysia, just over seven weeks after its official Kuala Lumpur launch in July. It is the brand's second paddle to clear a four figure sales mark in 2026, after its Thunder 10 model passed 2,000 units in August.
The milestone post, shared on 7 Sep, credits "every player, supporter, partner, dealer, coach, and member of the ARRONAX Family" for the run. No revenue figure was attached to the unit count.
A Second Four Figure Milestone in Six Weeks
Arronax's Thunder 10 paddle passed 2,000 units sold on 18 Aug, the brand's first such milestone post this year. Three weeks later, the KVL005, a separate signature line launched only in July, reached its own four figure mark.
Two different paddle lines clearing four figures within the same six week stretch points to steady sell through across the range, not just a single hot product carrying the brand.
Two Signed Players Behind the Paddle
The KVL005 carries the signatures of Arronax's two signed players, Wong Hongkit and Zane Ford, who Arronax brought to Kuala Lumpur for the paddle's official launch. Wong, a Hong Kong pro who cracked the PPA's global top 10 in August, went on to complete a PPA Tour Asia Men's Singles Triple Crown this season, marked days before this milestone with a limited KVL005 Triple Crown Champion Edition in gold and purple.
The two have shared a final before. Wong beat Ford in an all Arronax men's singles final at the PPA Tour Asia Beijing Open on 21 Jun, a repeat matchup the brand has leaned on in its own marketing since.
Built Around T800 Carbon Fiber
The KVL005 is a 16mm foam core paddle built around four layers of Toray T800 carbon fiber, the same construction Arronax used for the Triple Crown Champion Edition. It ships in five launch colorways and is listed on Arronax's own online store alongside its wider paddle range.
