ADV Pickleball Pro Bag Review

[@Wannabe-Pro]

Opened mine up today, love how you thought of the whole customer experience, extra cardboard so my box cutter doesn't accidentally hit the bag when opening, plastic over, little cards w video links...you've thought about the whole unboxing experience!

[@dillonjmartin]

This bag looks great and has all the features I think I would need for a day on the courts. Appreciate the cooler and toiletry pocket because summer in Vegas is HOT. Hydration and sunscreen required. Minimal branding and clean asthetics are a must; great job on this.

Thanks!

[@prestonshort1637]

What a great looking bag. Looking forward to hoisting it on to my shoulders!

[@advtennispro]

Yes!

[@BajaSurf]

[@advtennispro]

haha - you got me, my favorite carton growing up was indeed TMNT. Thanks!

[@folz17]

Got mine finally 👍

[@andreakenter5916]

Love your design. I’m headed over to your site to look for a slightly smaller and lighter bag! When I turn pro, I will buy this bag> love the interior details like lighter color, ability to have discrete divisions in the larger area, etc THANK YOU for paying such excellent attention to details that our daily needs call for!!

[@advtennispro]

Thanks for the kind words! We will always work to keep improving :)

[@davidchenofficialc4721]

Great design! Love all the functionality! 👏🏼😍

[@advtennispro]

Thanks, David!!

[@bojack3827]

I've got the tennis backpack version which is great!

[@advtennispro]

Love it!

[@MingTheAce]

Great job!!! Love my ADV Tennis bag.

[@advtennispro]

Thanks!!

I like it, but not sure I love it. It's definitely roomy, but I think it lacks the organizational utility of the Tennis Pro v2 (I own this for tennis and also use it for pickleball right now). Separate insulated and padded compartments for paddles would be nice, so I don't have to just throw my paddles into an unoccupied space. Paddles are expensive, so I want to have as many dedicated compartments as I can for them. The other big difference is that the Tennis Pro v2 has roomy accessory compartments with pockets inside. I can keep my equipment and other gear separate and organized, but in the Pickleball Pro they are just pockets in the main cabin. In any case, great job guys! I look forward to what you guys are developing next.

[@advtennispro]

Oh, there actually is. Check out time stamp 10:54

[@CyberSonic157]

When you said you wanted separate insulated and padded compartments for paddles, did you mean to say you want multiple separate sleeves? If so, why do you want multiple sleeves when you can just fit multiple paddles into the same sleeve? Cause the bag already does have one insulated paddle sleeve that can fit 2 paddles. In the comments he also says there's one divider in that sleeve.

[@padflash]

​@@CyberSonic157 ​ Good question! To clarify, yes I meant multiple sleeves. The biggest reason is that pickleball paddles are expensive, so I want to have dedicated storage for them, not just toss them in a big bag like a duffel. I know it has one, but what if I am carrying more than 2 paddles, it's a pro bag after all? The thing this bag excels at the most is space. So, yes, if I can't store more than 2 or 3 paddles in the dedicated compartment, I can toss them in the main cabin or in the sleeve on the front of the bag. One of biggest criticisms of big brand tennis bags is that they typically have typically single dedicated racket compartment and then a larger racket compartment meant for rackets or other gear. It's not until you get to the large 12-15 pack bags that you get multiple dedicated racket compartments. The ADV tennis bag is actually great at this and more. It's why I bought one from ADV, why I used it for pickleball, and why I actually just bought another one for pickleball (actually I was getting frustrated swapping stuff in and out of one bag). It's actually not much bigger, physically, than the CRBN or JOOLA bags. I suspect that two of the most requested things that customers asked ADV for was 1) a backpack concept pickleball bag and 2) more storage space than what competitors have to offer (for example, the JOOLA pro bag is pretty cramped when the shoe compartment is filled).

[@svlagonda7417]

Been waiting for this!!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@advtennispro]

It will be here soon :)

[@duangkaewkraitrakul2462]

Love the design and all thoughtful compartments.😍😍 Perfect for lots of stuff. But will be super heavy! Would be perfect if it has smart looking rollers/ wheels .

[@CyberSonic157]

A few questions: 1. Can the secret hideaway pocket fit something thick like a wallet? And maybe a phone together? 2. Can water seep through the zippers if it's in the rain? 3. Can the paddle/laptop sleeve fit up to a 17 in laptop?

[@advtennispro]

Sure thing. 1. Yes, it should fit a small wallet but not a phone. We wanted it to be small and discreet. 2. The cooler zippers are aquaguard and will repel water. The other zippers although YKK are not water repellant, but are all YKK and should offer a better average level of protection. Most bags, outside of water sealed pouches and day bags, won't have full water proof zippers. It's worth noting that the outershell material is weather proof and water repellant too. 3. Yes, it can fit a 17in laptop.

[@brucemark]

Too cool! Can't wait!

[@lalunesak]

Love it !👍

[@MichaelMilanov]

👏

[@yawnyle]

I wish it had padded dividers for the paddles. I don’t want my edgeless paddles rubbing against each other.

[@advtennispro]

Oh, we got ya. The back compartment fits 2 paddles and has a padded sleeve in between.

[@CyberSonic157]

@@advtennisproAre you referring to the laptop/paddle sleeve? If so, it does have one divider. Wish it was made more clear in the video.

[@robertsmith1978]

@@CyberSonic157that area has room for two paddles without them touching anything else.

[@Wannabe-Pro]

Try some cheap neoprene paddle covers.

[@patto-op6yd]

Looks great! When will the Tennis Backpack v2 be released?

[@advtennispro]

It will actually be an add on for the Kickstarter happening on this upcoming Tuesday 3/12. Afterwards it will be available on the site in May.

[@Wannabe-Pro]

Want to wow your friends? Pull a cold one🍺from your pickleball bag 🤯

[@advtennispro]

Cheers! 🍻

[@CyberSonic157]

Can we still get a warranty if we pledge on Kickstarter?

[@advtennispro]

Yes! Of course :)

[@anonymousbub511]

Will we get the option to buy the secret color way if we support on kickstarter

[@advtennispro]

Yes! :)

[@sharirusso7213]

This bag is 2 inches to high to qualify for a carry on. 22 is max -its 24 correct 24

[@advtennispro]

Hi there - ah yes. I've been able to travel with it as a carryon for all my flights. I haven't heard of an issue, at least that I've heard from any customers. Cheers!

[@deethra726]

Can this be used for tennis? I like the tennis backpack but this bag also looks really cool.

[@advtennispro]

Yes it can :) It will fit 2 racquets in the back with the latch attachment to keep them secure like the ADV Backpack.

[@jackjlutub]

Will the removable rain cape from the Tennis Backpack v2 be compatible with this bag? I like the larger capacity of this pickleball bag but I NEED the waterproof cape!

[@thanhpi97]

ADV Backpack V2, where? 👀

[@advtennispro]

It will be an add on during the kickstarter but also available on the ADV site in May.

[@thanhpi97]

Sounds great, are there any plans to sell through a reseller/expand into EU? Bag becomes quite expensive if I'm buying to Sweden 🫣

[@CyberSonic157]

When will the bag be available on the ADV website after the Kickstarter campaign?

[@advtennispro]

Most likely in early May

[@advtennispro]

for pre-order only. Kickstarter backers get priority shipping.

[@rrussell6360]

Will this have same warranty as the Tennis bag?
