“I’ve been playing pickleball for three years. Playing 4.0-4.5 level. I think the paddle is okay. My existing paddle has been a Paddletek Tempest Wave Pro. People say it has dead spots but I hold my own against players with the “better
ew” paddles. I will be returning this paddle. Not worth $250 imo.”
“This paddle almost eliminates any bad strikes allowing me to hit any part of the surface solidly (rare hits off the side of the paddle not counted). Powerful but has feel as well. I'm only a recreational player and possibly called a banger as those I normally play with. So while far from an expert pickleballer, I can say that this paddle works great for me.”
“I like the paddle but it seems to have durability issues. This not the first review telling the same story. This paddle is just not durable. I play 2 to 3 times a week for about 4 to 6 hours a day. I’m hoping I can get this replaced since it’s only been since July when I first purchased.”
“This paddle is great for players that want control and feel. This paddle is an automatic reset machine. If you are looking for a power paddle, this is not it.”
“Control at the kitchen is amazing. It’s improved my dinks.The grip is good but I still want to get a overgrip for it. Probably grab yanex for that.Power is slightly down but control is up. I was not needing a power paddle though. I have plenty of power without it so I can still slam pretty wellI got the 16mm so it’s a bit heavier than the 14 would be but no strain after use.”
“Great paddle however Ive had to return 6 of them now due to the top and side of the paddles edge guard coming loose. Seems to be a mfg defect with them not using enough glue or something. All paddles had the same issue in the same spots. After playing with them for about 3-4 weeks it keeps happening. Until Joola fixes the problem they are just going to keep eating returns. Unfortunately due to poor quality I think I’m going to switch to a different mfg. Too bad because this is my favorite paddle”
