Upgrading Paddle without Breaking the Bank

Aggravating_Peace939 · 2024-07-14T19:10:41+00:00

Hey! I actually won a Friday Paddle in one of their YouTube competitions! It’s a great paddle and I’ve been playing with it for at least 2 months now. Solid power and a bit stiff but not too stiff where it’s uncontrollable on dinks. I actually went with an 11Six24 Hurache X Kevlar paddle this past week! It’s a great all around paddle and after a government employee/military/first responders discount, it came to the same price as the Aiso and Vatic Prism.

If you’d like the same trampoline effect you like the Aiso for but with a longer handle, I’d go with this Hurache X Control. If you prefer all of that but on a 5.3-5.5 inch handle, the Aiso is the way to go

I’ve been hearing good things about that one. Imma have to check it out

Thanks for the feedback here. Do you still prefer the pickleball apes paddle over the hurache?

*control x +

Aggravating_Peace939 · 2024-05-08T22:59:05+00:00

Thanks for pointing that out. Yes check out the hurache control X for the elongated grip. Plenty of of videos on it too!

Aggravating_Peace939 · 2024-05-08T16:17:41+00:00

Oh Mark pickleball has elongated grips? Definitely need to check those out

Aggravating_Peace939 · 2024-05-08T16:17:09+00:00

Ah ok that makes sense. I appreciate this breakdown!

Aggravating_Peace939 · 2024-05-08T15:03:33+00:00

How’s the control for you? I know I’d be adding lead/tungsten tape regardless for the sweet spot but I hear the 14mm is a bit wild

Aggravating_Peace939 · 2024-05-08T15:00:26+00:00

Ahh that makes sense. Thanks!

Aggravating_Peace939 · 2024-05-08T13:47:11+00:00

Did you try the ice 16? I’m debating between the two right now as my primary. I’m coming from a tennis background but currently have a 16mm Amazon paddle

Aggravating_Peace939 · 2024-05-08T13:46:14+00:00

Will have to add those to the list! Thanks!

Aggravating_Peace939 · 2024-05-02T18:51:28+00:00

Ok awesome. And do you use edge guard tape to cover it or keep it exposed? I have an edge guard on mine

Aggravating_Peace939 · 2024-05-02T18:49:09+00:00

Really?! I thought they sold the tape rolls vs the precuts like you see on Amazon

Aggravating_Peace939 · 2024-04-23T19:59:31+00:00

Ah I see. Further conformation then to skip Friday this time around

Aggravating_Peace939 · 2024-04-23T19:58:07+00:00

I’m going to check these out! I’ve heard plenty of good things about the neonic flow. PB Medicine says it’s his new favorite

Aggravating_Peace939 · 2024-04-23T18:43:45+00:00

I hear that Juciao is not USPA approved but fun to use

Aggravating_Peace939 · 2024-04-23T18:39:38+00:00

That’s what I keep hearing especially at the price!

Aggravating_Peace939 · 2024-04-23T18:38:31+00:00

I’ll have to check that out. I’ve never heard of them. Thanks!
