How Different Cores and Cell Size Effect Your Paddle, 4.0 Improvement Series, PPA Dallas

[@ChorusPickleball]

Thanks for the shout outs, guys! And yep - all future production of all X Series will have those end cap shape designations. :)

[@AizecOlson]

Great pod boys! Definitely made me laugh 😂

[@PickleballPursuit]

I wish I was decent at singles, we could have the best battle of the short shorts singles match of all time

[@hruntingson]

@@PickleballPursuittime for a training montage!

[@cardinals5516]

I really like every episode of your podcast and I think this one is my favorite so far. Keep up the great work!

[@frydog1ea]

I totally enjoyed the discussion on cell size and polypropylene core discussion. I hope that this info will be added to some of the paddle databases.

[@AlaricBishop1993]

4.0 Gold Series I think is a good series. I hope can keep doing this.

[@jason.goodman]

Love the show guys!

[@DebMcQuillen]

Another great podcast. I loved the Net Gains segment. I'm a little weak between the ears so the concept of pre acceptance really resonated with me. Learning how to stop wasting my energy on things I can't control would help me to clear the slate instead of carrying the negative energy with me to the next points. Thanks for "learning" us Justin!

[@RTJ-PB]

Justin’s reaction to the 20 books max comment - hysterical!

[@veggieeats1160]

Great episode fellas. Great advice a/b the mental side of the game.

[@christianeprice]

Which KZbin celeb reviewer was I most excited to meet in Dallas? It wasn’t John or the PB Studio boys, or even adorable Rafa… it was King of Nerds Justin! And then just like that he hides his new main from us and breaks an old lady’s 💔😜😂

[@PickleballPursuit]

He’s definitely a tease… trust me

[@Pickleballetc]

It was great meeting you as well!

[@joshuapickett1234]

Best podcast in the game. 🔥

[@pauljohnmarcelino2121]

The Maverix Pro-X by the way indeed slaps! Overhead with that doesnt usually comes back lol And i think its better if you hit harder and i think i finally adjusted in controlling it in rhe softgame

[@ernest4483]

Another great content and podcast gentlemen, & Louis will you do a full review of Speedup paddles the Pryo and Cryo?

[@fontana820]

Any plans on reviewing the proton series one?

[@Pickleballetc]

If you go all the way back to episode 1 of this podcast, we talk about that paddle. Forgive us for the poor quality on that one. It was our first episode, okay.😄

[@PickleballMedicine]

Pre acceptance... I like it. You may have just earned Dayne another 📗 sale, haha 😂

[@mr.mr.3301]

I’ve got to say nerd. Town is my favorite part.

[@Olorin323]

Hrm...that looks like a Body Helix paddle cover Justin!

[@hruntingson]

I’d probably shout out “Hey! It’s the mayor!”

[@DianSusiana98]

Great podcast as usual. How does speed up compare to HUDEF MAGE Pro Gen2?

[@LouisBrown19]

Nice podcast. What do you think of Neonic Flow Prime-X?

[@robertbenjamin5230]

Great episode AGAIN! It does seem like the smaller diameter core cell size coupled with the lower density ppl is a very good combination. What other paddles besides the new Neonic are using that combination?

[@ArianaWilson-]

Great podcast. Gherkin's edge guard looks like it's woven. Is there any special process?

[@elukea]

You guys are using any weight in the handle on that FPX?

[@Pickleballetc]

No weight in the handle for me. Not sure about Louis. The balance point is already pretty low stock since it's a 14mm standard shape so I didn't feel the need to add any weight in the handle.

[@PickleballPursuit]

I put 12 grams in handle. Even if the balance point is low on a paddle I like having a little more static weight

[@elukea]

@@Pickleballetc Thanks for the response! Seems like you guys are different there! Would love to hear more about that. Played with it last night and really enjoyed it coming from an Olympus.

[@elukea]

@@PickleballPursuit Nice, when I played with the M2F 14mm (my longest main ever) I played with about 10g in the handle. I think I will throw some weight in the FlarePX handle to get it to a similar feel as that paddle.

[@DroidX1337]

Im looking for an alt main for my 12.7 bantam paddletek. Looking like a toss up between the saga and hurache alpha 1. Once you hit the saga I wanna hear your input!

[@felixfernandez2564]

GHERKIN BALL! 😂

[@PickleballHangout]

Any idea what the core/layup combo is for the Ronbus FX series?

[@tylerhilgers8196]

Video idea! I follow a few channels you’re aware of and many are doing Black Friday deal reviews which are great. However, I haven’t seen one yet give their opinion on ranking the deals. For example, the Honolulu discount code isn’t huge, but adding a discount to an already great deal may be a better deal in general than a paddletek discount, you know? So I’d love to see you put out a video showing all BF deals and ranking them based on your opinion considering paddle quality, pricing, discount, etc!

[@kimleith1378]

I'm leaning towards the SAGA Flash 16 over the OLYMPUS. Justin thanks for going to NT on cores. Been curious about this for years. Are there several companies making PP? Hoping VATIC is using the best availble on the SAGA.

[@EthanFong-c3y]

Shapeshifter SX vs Pulse V vs Flare Prime X comparison?

[@Dy1pickel]

Guesses for the unrevealed paddle ?

[@patrickxtran]

Ok but where does Lewis get his shorts from??

[@MattyRut2922]

Justin, why are so many of the new power paddles 14mm? The Ronbus Ripple 16mm failed testing, but the 14mm passed… is it the same reasoning behind the 14mm surge?

[@PickleballPursuit]

Most likely because 14mm paddles deflect less than a thicker core paddle. A lot of these new power paddles have squishy cores

[@MattyRut2922]

@@PickleballPursuit Yes and they are also making the new Power Paddles in a 14mm because the foam adds weight and a foamy 16mm paddle would get really heavy... but I knew this, I was just trying to give a Nerd Town layup but you blew right through it. I'd still be interested in a how and why discussion of power paddle tech being implemented.

[@PickleballPursuit]

@@MattyRut2922 ooops my bad... again, I can't read good 🤣This is definitely a good nerdtown topic!

[@af02271]

Justin out of focus at 52:12 Pickleball Will style

[@mr.mr.3301]

All of this is interesting, but honestly until they can figure out how to make peel plies last longer longevity is a moot point.

[@65atBestPB]

Books, self reflection videos, man up and quit jerkin your gherkins … so sad ;)
