First Impressions6/10The Franklin Aurelius is a very niche paddle, but the niche that it fills, is a very underserved group of people in Pickleball. If you want a very light paddle, this one is for you.
Review8/10The Vapor Power2 makes a big promise on grit longevity with HexGrit, and it actually delivers. In this review we've done long term testing to see exactly how it has held up. Lives dive in.
First Impressions7/10At first glance, I really wasn't all that interested in the Gherkin Draco. But after playing with it and looking at their website, there are a couple interesting value propositions that not a lot of companies are offering right now.
First Impressions7/10
Review5/10This is Six Zero’s new flagship paddle the Black Opal, and while it is definitely a performance paddle, I think it’s going to be very polarizing.
Review8/10The Spartus P1 introduces a major innovation that they are calling Permagrit. This is their attempt at a designing a texture that will give players longer lasting spin. Grit longevity has been one of the biggest issues in the Pickleball market, and Spartus thinks they have the solution.
Review9/10Bread & Butter has always made solid paddles with even better marketing, but the paddles themselves never really stood out from the pack. That changes with the new foam Loco lineup.
Review7/10All right, what’s up, guys. The Ronbus Quanta is probably one of the best power paddles you can buy right now. The best part is it comes in at a price that’s way more reasonable than what just about everyone else is doing right now.
First Impressions8/10Vatic Pro just released two new paddles: the V-Sol Pro (blue) and the V-Sol Power (red).
Review3/10As someone who used the CRBN TruFoam Genesis for more than half of this year, the Waves was a letdown. This was the least enjoyable paddle I’ve reviewed in well over a year, and I haven’t been more frustrated or agitated while testing a paddle in a long time.
First ImpressionsThe Sypik Avatar is the new signature paddle for pickleball pro Quang Duong. It’s a full foam core build, but the exact construction is still a bit of a mystery. I couldn’t get an X-ray before testing, and the website doesn’t give much away.
First ImpressionsRonbus dropped the Quanta out of nowhere. A full-foam-core lineup priced at $120 ($100 with a discount code PBSTUDIO).
First ImpressionsBread & Butter is back with a new paddle called the Loco, but don’t confuse it with their old model of the same name.
First ImpressionsI just got my hands on the new Thrive Project Fury, and I’ll be sharing my first impressions on it. To put it simply, this paddle is basically a JOOLA Pro IV if you added fiberglass and wrapped it in a hybrid shape. So let’s go over it and see what’s different, what works well, and what to look out for before buying.
ReviewIt’s taken a while, but Gearbox has finally made a paddle that can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with today’s top power paddles.
