The short answer
Rachel Rohrabacher's most likely current paddle is an unreleased Friday Aura Pro Tour in a custom version called the Rohra, reported by The Kitchen at the November 2026 World Championships, and in an undated statement on Friday's site she targets roughly 8.3 oz with lead tape at the base and sometimes the sides. Its thickness, a confirmed switch from the Friday Fever 102E her PPA Tour profile still lists, her grip build, overgrip, and shoes are pending.

Most likely Conflicting reports
The Kitchen's November 6, 2026 report is the newest dated account of what she is playing and names a custom version made for her. Between October 20 and November 7, 2026, Friday switched the homepage section on her paddle from the Fever 102 Elongated to the Aura Pro and dropped the Fever 102 from her quote. The Aura Pro Tour is unreleased and reported by one source.
Friday's Aura Pro Tour was reported in pro play in November 2026 before any public release. Friday has not published its shape, thickness or specifications, and the link goes to Friday's paddle shop, not to this model.
