    Based on your episode earlier this summer questioning if us rec players play better or make more errors with expensive paddles, I went out and purchased a Vatic prism almost half the price of my Ruby and the results were shocking. I had fewer errors, our points lasted longer and it has been more fun. I switched back for a single game after a month and was shocked how stiffer the Ruby was and less fun it was. I immediately went back to my Vatic and was happy with the results. Keep up the good work!

    The camera angle in Vegas sucked. They showed a side view of the court most of the time. But the camera panned slightly left and right and zoomed in and out a bit.

    I was there and played at the Font PPA event, the lighting was actually perfectly fine, arguably more pleasing and more uniform than needing to wear a hat to deal with sun glare. Playing in air conditioning was GLORIOUS. The event space is enormous, you could lob as high as you want and not worry about hitting the ceiling. Shot selection itself was much higher level because players can be that much more precise without conditions like wind. Now for the cons - the courts were atrocious. Bounces were low and fast, there were obvious seams between the big plastic square blocks underneath the sandpaper surface itself, and the ball simply wouldn’t bounce if it hits those gaps. The surface, like you mentioned, had wrinkles that would also completely ruin bounce. Luckily it seems like the two center courts had better quality control, but definitely room for improvement. The court surface was so high grit and rough that it ate balls alive. Overall, it was actually quite a pleasing event, they just need to solve for the court surface itself for future events.

    More expensive paddle brands also contribute more to pickleball. They sponsor players and tournaments. They sponsor ambassadors and local events. They have more robust customer service and can handle more inquiries. In short, they have a significant presence in pickleball. Other companies like six zero and CRBN do all their own R&D and are investing in infrastructure to not be in the same pool of Chinese factories as other brands. Because they actually have these expenses, they also charge more for their paddles. Brands that slap a logo on a chinese paddle dont have R&D, marketing, customer service, and sponsorship expenses and can "race to the bottom" with their pricing. So from a micro view, it doesn't make much sense to buy a $200+ paddle when it comes to personal use of the technology. If you take a more macro view, some people might be willing to shell out some extra money to support the flagship brands. Different strokes for different folks!

    • @PickleballStudio
      @PickleballStudio  2 місяці тому +7

      Definitely! The larger brands contribute a very significant amount to growth areas of Pickleball. That would have been a good topic as well. Our main focus was on value for consumer, but if you are talking value for the entire sport, those larger brands contribute quite a bit.

The only other paddle like that is the Vice by Diadem which is being sold as an Unapproved USAP paddle.

    One thing I would say is that as you get older and have more injuries, you look for paddles to fill out those deficits.
    Have you have a chronic shoulder injury and can’t generate power, a power paddle is nice. You learned to have soft hands. If you can find a paddle that does both amazing.

    My wife and I really enjoy your channel and watch it all the time., and l especially when you do paddle reviews. We have purchased paddles based on your testing recommendations and we have not been been disappointed. We have a couple of questions we would love to hear your thoughts on. Back when you tested the Legacy paddle you really liked it. My wife LOVES hers. We are older (50+) and 3.5) but my wife is a pretty big hitter, so the Legacy was perfect for her. She will probably get another but they seem to have dropped of the map. I cannot find anything on them regarding new paddles or really any news. Are they going out of business, developing new paddles? Could you give us an update? Also I would dearly love to see you do a test on the Diadem's Hush paddle. I am considering it for myself, I currently using a Selkirk Vangard (power) which was good at the start, but after 8 months of steady play it has lost power and grit, very disappointing. Thank you very much, and keep up the good work, its not just kids (nothing personal lol) who watch your channel.

      Get the Hush. I have tested many, many paddles, and the Hush is the most unique paddle I've ever used in 7+ years. John Kew described it as dangerously powerful, But especially for us older, slower players, power has benefits. I have found that many shots that are outside of my comfort zone (reaches, late motion) now make it over the net. The control is phenomenal. I do not find it overpowering on serves.

    In general, the high price of the paddle has irreplaceable, such as core or lifetime warranty and so on, if you want that you need to spend money. Otherwise you can buy a lot of paddles of the same type.

    I think companies like bread & butter make their prices worth it with packaging, presentation customer support etc. vs I saw someone on reddit get a proton ($250+) that showed up bubble wrapped in an envelope 😂😭

    I think a lot of people don't realize that Pro Tennis Players who play pickleball or switched to pickleball can still hang in Tennis. Sam Querrey rarely wins in Pickleball but he will crush anyone in Tennis, Jack Sock, Donald Young, we love to shit on Genie Bouchard but she's still pretty good.

    How does the Halo Power compare to the Power Air?

    • @Bilbojackson
      @Bilbojackson 2 місяці тому

      I have used both. I am a 4.5 player. Both have really good power. The Halo is a lot easier to control though because it is thermoformed carbon fiber. I love the counter punch ability they both give me, but I feel like I get more control and placement with my halo. I can reset much better with it also. If you play with the power air you will love the additional things above I mentioned that the halo gives you!

    Guyz, There are currently over 1,800 paddle brands with USAP-approved paddles. Consolidation in the market seems inevitable. My questions are: when do you anticipate the number of brands will begin to decline, and what catalysts do you believe could accelerate this process?
    Thank you, and kudos on the podcast.

      Next year due to the pricing change to get paddles certified. 150k plus 15k for each paddle will drive 90% out the market.

    Best bang for the buck overall is the Garye Pro XL. Gen 2, T700 carbon fiber, edge foam, etc. for $50. No warranty, but most of these companies only give you like 3-6 months anyway and thermoformed paddles typically are built like tanks. I'd be comfortable going into a tournament with it if that's what I had to play with.
