Paddle Weight: Light or Heavy?
Weight matters in pickleball. A light paddle (6.8-7.3 oz) gives more control and speed. It works well for quick reactions at the net. A heavy paddle (7.4-8.4 oz) adds power to your shots. It’s great for players who want stronger hits. PBPRO paddles come in different weights to match your playing style.
Weight |
Best For |
Light (6.8-7.3 oz) |
Quick hands, finesse shots |
Medium (7.4-8.0 oz) |
Balanced play |
Heavy (8.1-8.4 oz) |
More power, strong swings |
Grip Size: Finding the Right Fit
A good grip helps you hold the paddle comfortably. Too big, and you lose control. Too small, and you might strain your hand. Most grips range from 4 to 4.5 inches in size. If you are unsure, go smaller. You can always add an overgrip for extra thickness. PBPRO offers grip tapes in 10 colors, so you can style your paddle your way.
Paddle Material: What’s Inside Matters
The core of the paddle changes how it plays.
• Polymer core – Soft and quiet, great for control.
• Nomex core – Firm and loud, adds more power.
• Aluminum core – Light and strong, with good touch.
The paddle face also affects performance:
• Graphite – Light and strong, gives fast response.
• Fiberglass – Adds power, good for spin.
PBPRO uses high-end materials to give players the best mix of power and control.
Paddle Shape: More Than Just Looks
Paddles come in different shapes.
• Wide-body – Large sweet spot, easy to hit.
• Elongated – Extra reach, better for power.
• Standard – Balanced shape, good all-around.
PBPRO makes paddles in all these shapes. We help players find what works best for their game.
Surface Texture: Adding Spin to Your Game
Some paddles have a rough surface. This helps grip the ball and add spin. If you like to slice or curve shots, look for a textured paddle. PBPRO designs paddles with the right surface feel to give players more control over spin and speed.
Price vs. Quality: Making a Smart Choice
A paddle is an investment. Cheap paddles wear out fast. Expensive ones should last longer and improve your game. PBPRO offers premium paddles at a fair price. You get high-quality gear without overpaying.
