I’ve got one and bought my son one. I do have to say that they don’t have a good return policy for bad paddles. My second one has a bad handle. The customer has to email for a approval to return, make a video, and pay for shipping both ways . It’s been a terrible experience.

Wow….to me it’s a great paddle but based on people’s experience with their customer service this will definitely be my last paddle from them. I consider myself lucky that I got a good one but if I was in their situation I’d be frustrated as well. To many great paddle companies out there right now
Good decison to have J 1 turn over the paddle reviews to J 2. I thought itwas weird for someone paid by Selkirk to review different paddle. Good job, J 2.
Love my 6.0 DBD (16mm) and also, did NOT start w/ lead tape --- and eventually added lead tape at the 4o'clock/8'oclock positions as you did. For me it added some solid twist weight/stability without adding much perceived swing weight. Love it and highly recommend
i liked my DBD so much , I got a second one...threw 3g weights on each side and LOVE it...spin, power, control are just for my game......the tape helped the off center hits but didn't raise swing weight too much but raised twist weight so the paddle doesn't twist on off-center strikes....this paddle works for me perfectly..2x...lol
Great Great comprehensive review....I'm ready for my second "serious" paddle purchase...my first one was a Ronbus and I LOVE it! But now at 4.5, i need more power..but don't want to sacrifice my Spin & Reset touch... so this one sounds like it might fit the bill Question on the handle width... what are the pros and cons of a smaller versus bigger handle. I come from racquetball where smaller handles are better so you can get a tighter grip... but in p-ball I certainly know gripping the handle looser is better. If I had to choose a grip size blindly without demoing...what are the pros and cons of thicker vs thinner grip sizes in Pball? Also what are the pros/cons of the 16/14mm thickness...noooo idea what "feature/benefits" i should be looking for when comparing those two thicknesses!
14 will have a tad more pop, but a little bit less control. You’re right about the grip, although I really believe it comes down to preference. I’ve seen pros that like to have a thicker grip, and also the opposite with some liking a thinner grip.
My brother ordered one and raved about it. So, of course I had to get one. I love the 6.0 DBD - mine is the 14mm Cherry Blossom and I added lead tape on the throat after using it for a few weeks. It has helped with stability. Love this paddle.
thanks for the review, been using my pre-ordermy DBD 6.0 from last year I have been playing with 2 to 3 times a week, but during snow-bird season, I have been using it every day this pas winter. I love my DBD, found it a bit longer adjusting time with it but it was all worth it. I love the mid court drive with all the a ton of TSpin and see it curl to the down side and as soon as the other side touches it it flies into the net with a surprise. Love them shots. The reverse flicks at the kitchen are gold with its speed and spin. My main concern is when do I swop for a one.. haha have a great day
Lol he started to notice it a little bit, and hits the ball harder than 99% of players. If you’re below a 4.5, it will most likely take a long time for that to happen
Flash is much softer, less power and spin. Great value though. Flash may have more control, but the DBD will have a lot more power. ua-cam.com/video/ndBA6N5E2aA/v-deo.htmlsi=COqwnG7-LlDSeflW
This is an exceptional review! I’ve been using a Joola Perseus-how would you compare that to the DBD in terms of pros and cons and which is better overall?
I am buying one today with your code. I noticed on their website there is an option for pro weight limited edition 8.3-8.5oz. same price. what is that and should i get? I plan on putting lead on throat like your video shows.
Hey Dr Yeager try’d to use your code didn’t work Please share We’re I can use that discount code ! I think after listening to your Video I would really like to try it ! Thank you in advance
Yes, unfortunately, we weren’t able to get our discount code to work for this paddle. It says that in the description. Sorry about that. If you’d like to still purchase the paddle and help support our channel, you can still do so. Thanks!
I have played with nothing but paddeltek and have their new tempest wave pro with ice carbon. This past indexed to give the DBD a try and the cherry blossom. First love the look of the paddle. More importantly is like a Cadillac not soft but plush and has plenty of power when you step on the gas. This thing just feels great. Sure there are more powerful paddles but this thing does everything you need it do. I can see switching to anything else for a long time. Thank Briones for the discount code. If you're on the fence jump off and get the DBD 16mm
I got one about six weeks ago. Loved it. Got another a couple weeks later because I like two and the face texture felt more substantial. The first one was the white on black paddle and the second was the cherry face paddle. Strange. May not make a difference in my game but it is in my head.
Great video. Question you said you put 5 inches of lead tape on starting 1.5 inches from the handle. When I do that it goes up to the 6.0 logo on the side where yours is way lower? Did you do 5 inches or less?
Only gripe for me is the grip is too small at 4.25 inches. I had to buy some tennis shrink wrap along with an overgrip to make it 4.5 inches. I used to buy 4.75 grip on the tennis racket and shaved the handle down a tiny bit. I find the larger grip put less tension on the carpal tunnel and tennis elbow pain. I tend to squeeze the larger grip less since I feel the larger grip gives me more control. Sounds quite weird but it works for me.
I borrowed one while on a trip out of state recently. I played against the guy who loaned me his paddle. He tried to take it back, mid-game because I was playing so well with it. It just felt right. I ordered one last week and am waiting for it to arrive. Great sweet spot. Feels soft enough for easy drops and dinks but plenty of power. Note: I've been playing with Legacy Pro (which I love) for nearly a year now. The DBD just FEELS like a better fit for the game I'm playing now.
I commented on your Lux review and you recommended checking out this paddle, that it maybe a better fit. I ordered the Infinity DBD Control, but received the Infinity Black Diamond Power. Now I’m thinking I might like this better, your thoughts?
@@BrionesPickleball they actually just sent me the control paddle so 2 for 1. I played with the power paddle, loved it. Great customer service at Six Zero
This is my pick of paddle of the year 2023. I do love the joola scorpeus too but this paddle is just good at everything and I find myself picking this stick more than the others when im playing.
@@BrionesPickleballI'm glad to hear. I hadn't played with it at the time I commented b/c it came shipped with a wonky installed butt end and I was debating on returning it. Was going off initial impressions, mass manufacturing experience, fit and feel and from bouncing balls on both. I've finally got the handle fixed and added 3g weights to the lower sides. I did use it briefly with a round, double wrapped handle and felt it had more dwell, more substance to it. Grip is built up with balsa wood, perfect bevels, great feel. Using a loupe, the texture is similar but not the same. But that doesn't mean it's not very similar inside and built in the same factory... Tomorrow is testing day. I used your code btw
Isn't the hybrid shape a thing used by several paddle manufacturers, or is this somehow different? I'm thinking of my Vatic Pro Flash Carbon 16 mm. How does this differ?
Playing with thermoform paddles everyday I can see core crushing on every one, the honeycomb outline shows up from the ball dust on the paddle face and after erasing the dust that pattern remains on the face and definitely wasn’t present when new. I use the DBD, Vatic Prism and Legacy!
Just because you see the honeycomb doesn’t mean it’s breaking or that the core is crushing. That’s pretty normal. Honeycomb paddles will break down eventually, but will last a considerable amount of time, depending on how you treat it.
I got the DbD 16mm over the summer. This review holds true to all the other reviews. It's a solid balanced paddle you can just pick up and play with. I never had quality issues but i play once a week for 2 hours. The pink graphics are really cool. Picking it up, its pretty light but feels very solid in-hand. It shines for 3rd shot drops and drives. Spin is as good as the rest. I wish it was poppier but maybe its just me. Sweetspot is nice but you notice mishits like any paddle. I had never used lead tape but when I up/sidegraded to the DbD i decided to try it on my Electrum E, with the expectation that it might be fun but the DbD would be the primary paddle. I used Collin Johns' setup off his insta (he uses 6 inches of tape and Ben uses 5 inches, both using 2 OZ.) The E now feels amazing. Tons more power/stability but it retains the softness/dwelltime it had before. I put a similar setup on the DbD with 1 OZ strips on the throat corners and lower side. (i didn't want to put as much lead on it as the E because i wanted to keep it lighter and retain more of its out-of-the-box qualities.) This improved the power and added stability except now im really torn between the E and DbD. I guess for me the E is 'safer' but i feel that I can do more with the DbD as I get used to it... (So now I feel like that meme where im walking with the DbD but im checking out the new Gearbox and the DbD is staring at me in disgust.)
Sorry exactly We’re does it say in the description. Your description or the description of all sellers that sell the double diamond Paddle. You did a great video on your thoughts using DDB Paddle but your Code doesn’t work ! I asked where I could use that code to purchase the double D paddle. Only to receive a weak answer ! ☹️Bummed
I’ve got the single as well. More power, spin. and pop at the sacrifice of the net game. I’m probably a 3.5 and find it very hard to drop the ball in the kitchen, reset and hit below the net with it. If you can generate your own power the DBD will work better for you. If you feel you need to convince someone that need eye protection, tag them with the single once or twice.
I can’t believe people play pickleball that are under 65. So many better things to do in the world. I surfed and went scuba diving in the last 2 days. To chase a whiffleball around is just going to be a disappointment to your family….kids, grandkids, parents and grandparents. Nobody says I’m going to raise a pickleball player. I also have a huge real estate development business and I became fluent in a second language….Russian.
I am a little lost by the comment tbh. I don’t see why having a passion and trying to improve or socialize with pickleball as a past time is a bad thing in any way.
So many better things to do…… like watch reviews on equipment for a sport you are never going to play….. then leave a comment on it….. then comment on the comments, ya you seem pretty busy.
Have you tried the DBD?
Yes, it’s my go to.
Yep, I have the 16mm and 14mm DBD! Love em
I picked up a friend's and hit 10/10 3rd shot drops. Felt like I just had to move my arm, and the drops happened like magic. Just a 3.5.
where can we try it?

Is there such a thing as break-in period for the 16mm Double Black Diamond control? We just got one and it feels absolutely dead.
Dead?
That’d odd. You may have an unlucky one. I don’t know what you mean by dead
My double black diamond has dead spots on upper half of a paddle. I’m sending it back to six zero and waiting to see how they respond.
They should send you a new one
O k wait! I'm confused why jordan, which is sponsored by selkirk, is advertising the competition's paddle?
We review ALL paddles on this channel, including Selkirk paddles.
How would you compare the DBD to the Vatic Prism Flash, assuming you've tried the Prism Flash.
Flash is much softer, less power and spin. Great value though. Flash may have more control, but the DBD will have a lot more power.

How do you choose between 14 and 16mm?
Basically, the 14 has more pop, and less control. I can tell you that most players (probably 90% or higher) would enjoy the 16 more.

Would you recommend to put lead? If yes what size/wt & location?
Yes, just like this video. Probably .5 to one ounce. On the bottom sides of the paddle
Great video. Question you said you put 5 inches of lead tape on starting 1.5 inches from the handle. When I do that it goes up to the 6.0 logo on the side where yours is way lower? Did you do 5 inches or less?
Around 4-5 inches. Experiment with it and find a setup that you like. We’ll make a video on it soon.
Is there a 14mm?
Yes
is this the 16mm non pro version that's being reviewed?
No, this is the original DBD
The 5 inch lead tape. How many grams is that? 2 grams per inch tape?
I use the one gram-inch
I let my wife borrow my DBD today . Lasers everywhere. Drops put aways needless to say the cherry pink is on its way

Hi
Did you try the single black diamond?
Is your Double a 16mm?
Thanks
Yes, and yes. The double black diamond is the go-to.
I’ve got the single as well. More power, spin. and pop at the sacrifice of the net game. I’m probably a 3.5 and find it very hard to drop the ball in the kitchen, reset and hit below the net with it. If you can generate your own power the DBD will work better for you. If you feel you need to convince someone that need eye protection, tag them with the single once or twice.
I have both, currently using Single a lot, Maybe I’m old and weak 😢,
However, SBD has settled down finally and is good.
