How to Find the Best Pickleball Paddle (for your game style)

[@EnhancePickleball]

Like I said, my favorite and current paddle is the Selkirk Power Air - the ratings in the video were created by my friend Darsh, who was testing the paddles. Thanks for watching!!

[@keithleger3371]

Have you played with the new Luxx Control Air yet? how does it compare?

[@tomfahlberg]

I have a lot of respect for your opinion. Did you go through the same process to choose the Selkirk?

[@teamsantizo]

Thanks for this review. How would you compare the Enhance Sweet spot paddle vs. these paddles?

[@karimmarrakchi597]

A budget paddle comparison would be fantastic for people looking for good but yet affordable paddles. Thanks

[@zzzzz2899]

vatic pro prism flash or v7 is the only thing you need to look at if you want a budget paddle

And Ronbus

[@karimmarrakchi597]

It just happens that I own both the Ronbus and the Vatic…

[@ardynites1733]

Budget paddles just aren’t that good. Why do you own multiple budget paddles? Just make the investment

[@dominiquesydne3146]

That shop is SICK. That mini indoor court for trying paddle is so smart

[@Coach_A22]

This is perfect content to evaluate why a player would choose a paddle, but also, how a player should evaluate paddles. Well done!

[@romanhernz3839]

My best paddles that I have tested and love them Vatic Pro, 6.0 Double Diamond, Legacy Pro, Ronbus series....nice video !!!!

[@robedwards6926]

I've only been playing for 6 months but I've tried a ton of paddles already. I can quite confidently say that the Six Zero Double Diamond is one of the best, if not the best, all around paddle to buy. Good control and more then enough power for drives and put aways. I highly recommend it. Just bought my second one today.

[@777chris]

Very nice / good suggestions. However, what was not covered was how to evaluate how long the paddle surface retained its roughness. I have heard multiple sources report that the Joola paddles lose a high percentage of their roughness after only about a month of regular use. How can a regular pickleball player get a good, unbiased evaluation of surface roughness versus time for all the paddles out there?

[@sheldonshin9167]

Thanks for the help! Lots of people know about different paddles but don't know the differences much. I would love to hear what you guys think about some budget paddles.

[@EnhancePickleball]

Thanks for watching & noted!

[@JustOnePageAway]

Yes to budget paddles please.😊

[@davecappy5268]

Enjoyed this video, and most all of your content. Next time i visit my son in LA, I'm going to stop by that shop in Santa Monica. I've fallen in love with the vatic pro v7. But i had no way to test ahead of time. So finding a shop like that is perfect. Thanks and keep up the great instructional videos 👍🏻

[@lymedog3176]

I used the Crbn 1 and I purchased a xspak paddle, it’s a Crbn clone. The xspak was a bit lighter, hit with more power, dinked better and had great spin at literally 1/2 the cost. I’ve used the Selkirk you use and the joola and I’m convinced that I’d rather have the xspak!

[@scooter8187]

I did not like the feel/feedback of the xspak so returned it to Amazon with no hassles.

[@carquestionsanswered]

Thank you for doing this video...have been sweating over what paddle to get and really can't test before I order

[@EnhancePickleball]

Glad it was helpful!

[@mariacopre4106]

This is a great video! Yes, budget paddles please: Legacy, Volair, Vatic, Bread & Butter, etc. Thank you!

[@isaacdrake]

And DBD

[@St.PetePicklers727]

Definitely make a video on budget paddles. Great video. 👍

[@EnhancePickleball]

Noted!

[@amykruse5846]

I am an advanced beginner with a beginner paddle. I want to invest in a better paddle but don't have the opportunity to demo from a store and feel silly spending too much money when my skills a just developing. A video to pick a paddle for someone at my level, with room to improve, in the $150 or under range would be great! Thanks!

[@seanlcoggins]

Legacy pro

[@shanec4441]

Thanks for your unbiased reviews. It seems the Selkerk paddles are very popular in the 2024 PPA.

[@guslevy3506]

Selkirk is aggressively sponsoring pros and similar influencers right now…they are trying the tried and true path of spending a ton on marketing and sponsorships to capture market share in a growth industry. Those customers who buy Selkirk are paying them to influence them…it’s akin to a car customer paying an extra $2-3k on avg to have the car company advertise to that customer…

[@roguenoodles128]

Please do the budget video!! I’m willing to go up to around $125 but the lower the better for me right now.

[@bstewartexecutivecarcare3797]

Lately we have had a bit of controversy about the balls, could you do a review of outdoor balls? Thanks 👍✌️☮️

[@bc2049]

Since you pick the Jolla Perseus 16mm as a winner, would be nice if you can compare all four of the new Joola paddles, Perseus, Scorpeus 16mm & 14mm. Thanks

[@MP-tf7cc]

Yes, a video on budget paddles and best values.

[@elliottsharaby]

I am a new player so I don’t want to invest in a very expensive paddle. Would like a comparison of budget friendly paddles also. Thanks. Luv the channel

[@robertsmentkowski312]

My wife is buying a paddle. we tested them as the video described. However, we did not check for sweet spot and spin. We will check for those two characteristics on the next testing go around. We are down from 25 to about eight. The first criteria was weight with her preferring lighter ones, so that was easy to get down to eight

[@fredmuehlmeyer335]

Please add the Vatic pro flash to your budget paddle battle. Thx

[@crazyjcaldwe9]

Would love a budget paddle video as well

[@BubbieSquared]

Please do a budget paddle comparison! I’m a new player and can’t justify spending $150+ on a paddle yet.

[@davidbombard]

Really liked this video. Nice job.

[@EnhancePickleball]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@BRUCEFOWLER-ru7sf]

very good video. please et some of the budget carbons

[@Blairpaulsonsom]

Yes please do budget paddles

[@Bergarita]

Good video. It be cool if the paddles didn't have any logos so that name brand bias doesnt kick in. I recently bought the Six Zero Double Black Diamond 14 mm. Came in at 7.8 ounces but i put lead weight at 3 and 9 oclock and then on both sides of the throat. Power and spin are great with this paddle and I am just now getting good feel for the dinking. In the end I think any good quality paddle is fine, its more about the player's ability.

[@JimFessler]

I would like to see a comparison of a set of wide paddles from some of the same manufacturers.

[@kelleychitwood2259]

Budget Paddle comparison would be great !!

[@darrell1374]

Funny. Other testers have not rated the Joola Perseus very high. I guess, like you said, every player is different!

[@boost9701]

Do a video of the that Selkirk v htpick paddle from temu, it feels the exact same I have the cheap one

[@susanscandles]

Looking for recommendations for a paddle for a beginner but one that gives a good experience on first playing and not a paddle that could turn someone off to pickleball. Would appreciate your top 3 and why.

[@merieleon8394]

HI thanks for this video, can you test out the Vulcan 5000 series paddle? Thanks

[@BJJandBS]

Gotta do budget paddles. 90% of people do not want to spend $150-250 on a paddle. $50 paddles FTW

[@lazyhusband]

$50 lol. China knockoffs.

[@BJJandBS]

@@lazyhusband they are exactly the same

[@lazyhusband]

@@BJJandBS No MLP players use Juciao

[@sebastiandchow]

​@lazyhusband are you under the impression that the expensive paddles are not also made in china

[@lazyhusband]

@@sebastiandchow No, I’m not. Buy from companies who make an effort to put out quality products while doing some R&D. Stop supporting knock offs. You’re part of the China problem if you do.

[@LisaZhong-yo3fd]

Very nice / good suggestions

[@laotse_]

Love may Perseus 16 paddle, but I'm wondering whether a 16 is the best paddle for singles. Might a 14 be better given that power is more of a factor in singles? Thanks

[@WorkingFromHomeToday452]

I wish you guys had affiliate links to purchase these!

[@TXEaglesFan]

Do a video on the best budget paddles

[@iceman_levi]

I just bought a Volair mach 1 and a mach 1 forza for my gf and I. I wonder how they compare to the Joola in this video... any feedback?

[@karaoke888]

I play with both CRBN 1X and Selkirk Invikta Power Air. I guess my next paddle is the Perseus! 😁

[@lidoz]

They are my top 3, wondering if I should go with 14mm or 16 🤔

[@guslevy3506]

As someone who played a lot of tennis in the past, I go through a paddle in about 6 weeks playing about 15-20hrs per week. Digging shots which scrapes the corners is my biggest culprit. As a result, for a person like myself, COST is the practical highest factor in choosing a paddle…

[@Cajunrich]

Nice VID did you make One with $50-$150 paddles? And for decent players Not beginners but decent

[@edreams11]

What is the store name shown on the video with a lot of paddle choices?

[@EK-gf7yu]

Why not demo the new Selkirk 005 006??

[@ShakkN]

Throw a sixzero and a ronbus in there and Perseus goes way down

Finding the right pickleball paddle can really make a difference in your game!

[@Amazingggrace]

Budget paddles please!

[@Random_questions_rq]

My favorite is Franklin feather weight

[@yasim9435]

Why aren’t there objective evaluations with mechanical specs like thickness, stiffness, friction ratio, bounce and spin characteristics of standard mechanical arm like it used to be done for tennis racquets . I am sure manufacturers have to measure them for quality control so racquets parameters do not vary between units

[@Meandmymirror]

Are some more geared towards women with a smaller grip? I have little hands

[@ubaidrazi97]

Needs budget paddles

[@guloguloguy]

IS IT "LEGAL" OR, ACCEPTABLE, TO COAT THE PADDLE SURFACES WITH ANYTHING, THAT MAY INCREASE IT'S "SPIN" TRACTION"??!!!... [i.e. "ROSIN", PITCH, LATEX, GRIT, OR, MESH/FABRIC?!]

[@stephenrichter8940]

A friend of mine had a ping pong paddle with 80 grit sandpaper on one side so he could choose to spin it 45° from where he hit it towards any time.

[@thewatcher5452]

The Six Zero DBD is missing in your selection!

[@PrisonMike-_-]

This dude sounds EXACTLY like how they say LA people talk in Letterkenny

[@zinvor123]

UPDATE: The JOOLA Perseus 14mm Mod TA-15 and JOOLA Perseus 16mm Mod TA-15 will be removed from certification for sanctioned play starting July 1, 2025 because they exceeded testing standards. In other words, they are too good.

Budget pls

[@brianbanks3044]

TOO BAD YOU COULDN'T TRY THE 6.0 DOUBLE BLACK DIAMOND IN THE TEST...I HAVE THE CARBON, PURSUIT AND THE 6.0 AND I COULD SWITCH BETWEEN THEM AND EACH ONE HAS JUST MINOR DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THEM ALL...BUT ALL 3 ARE EXCELLENT PADDLES...SORRY FOR CAP LOCK...oops
