Because of those factors, along with the increased number of competitive players looking for high-quality gear, it’s now very common to see models over $100, with some of the high-end ones now topping $175 – a full hundred dollars more than just a few years ago. Since then, the use of premium materials including specialized cores made of high-end composites and carbon fiber or graphite paddle surfaces has become more common. Five years ago many of the top paddles were selling in the $75 range, with only a few special edition models edging just over the $100 mark. Since we launched this website, we’ve seen the quality of paddles rise to a new level (with price tags to match).

Very nice paddle, only had for 2 weeks, but I am happy that I bought it.While the vast majority of our readers have no intention of becoming pro pickleball players, you still may be curious about who the pros are, how they started – and the paddles they play with.Īlthough you never know how obsessed you might get with this sport, one player documented his journey to becoming a pro player for us in 2020 – shortly after playing pickleball for the first time! You may be wondering how what it takes to make it, how much they can earn, and what kind of equipment are they playing with? Jacquelyn Schneider from Saint Peters, MO United States I think players who don’t hit the sweet spot often will struggle, but more advanced players shouldn’t be too bothered except when volleying bangers.Ġ of 1 people found the following review helpful: You get the pop, better feel, and more spin potential. I think it’s a great transition to players that liked the Engage Icon line, or thinner nomex core paddles. It definitely requires some modification and more perimeter weighting (get out the lead tape). Very noticeable when volleying hard drives, as the paddle really twists on off center hits. It kind of feels like the 2nd generation nomex core paddles from Gamma, But there is one glaring issue and that is a lack of stability. Overall, the paddle does have more pop than the thicker core original Electrum models, and the spin potential seems similar. I was really looking forward to a thin core Electrum, having been a fan of the 13mm CRBN. Randy Lundy from Ventnor, NJ United States
#ELECTRUM PICKLEBALL PC#
In the future, I'll purchase paddles elsewhere and wouldn't recommend PC until they match shipping methods. Other sites ship using padding or bubble wrap in a box with UPS or FedEx. This is however the first paddle I purchased from pickleball central. This paddle allows me to do it more than anything else in my bag of paddles.
I prefer to slice and add as much spin as possible. This company always fills orders quickly and accurately Jill Fitts from Broken Arrow, OK United States The Pro II Carbon Fiber Paddle by Electrum Pickleball will enhance your power and accuracy, making you a more dynamic player and a threat on the court.Ġ of 0 people found the following review helpful: Its grip is 4.25" in circumference and features a premium leather wrap which feels smooth and supple while repelling moisture for extra security. The handle is 5.25" long which offers enough room for most players to make use of double-handed shots. It retains a sizable sweet spot due to its 8" width and only uses whole cells in its polypropylene core, resulting in durability and a consistently reactive feel across the entire surface. The Pro II’s high quality carbon fiber face is durable and includes plenty of the texture Electrum paddles are known for, for adding crazy spin to your cuts and slices.
The trim 11mm (0.43") thick core is ideal for delivering lots of power and pop, while retaining the precision needed for softer exchanges. The Pro II Pickleball Paddle from Electrum includes all of the excellent technology introduced with the original Pro model, but with slightly longer and narrower proportions for additional reach and follow-through as compared to the original.
