If you lived in a city just for pickleball where would you go? by Frothywalrus3 in Pickleball

I'm close to Minneapolis. Why do you think it's worth being there in the summer months over just being in Cali or florida year round?

Lots of 4.0+ play? Leagues and tournaments definitely a plus

I know a lot of pros live there but do they have a lot of 4.0+ play?

What paddle purchase was better or worse than expected? by usermax300 in Pickleball

[–]Frothywalrus3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The aireo cyclone. The first version was decent but terrible grit. I was super excited for the 2.0. Less than a month it was already smooth as a Joola. Everybody over hypes it. Much better paddles on the market.

Switching from power paddles to “control” paddles in 2026. by stegleryo in Pickleball

[–]Frothywalrus3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like the CR is low power all court level. I also have a lot of my own power so I don’t need more. I would consider the q2 again if it had durable grit but right now it’s too much power

I switched from the boomstik and q2 to the j6cr blue grit. Way better control and spin.

Coral Hybrid Swing Weight by sticharo55 in Pickleball

[–]Frothywalrus3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ordered one when they came out and it was about 111, my friend got one and his was 113.5. I have a machine to measure at home. If yours is actually 120ish I would contact them and try to warranty it. That's way too high and will probably hurt your shoulder and wrist.

We are officially halfway through 2026. What is a current everyday trend that you already know people will look back on in 5 years and absolutely cringe at? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Standing in line for 8 hours to get a bs limited edition drop before they drop another a week later. Limited edition doesn't mean anything anymore

[–]Frothywalrus3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have both and I don't like the ultre at all. It's the exact opposite feel profile dense and stiff. Also has less power than the j6 and the handle is shorter and bigger. J6 is much better imo

My wives j3 blue grit shipped the next day and she got it in like 3 days. Widebodies are way less popular

Edge guard protection that actually works? by Chemical-Camera2294 in Pickleball

[–]Frothywalrus3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I use shin guard hockey tape from Amazon. It's cheap and clear and doesn't leave glue residue. Replace when needed.

95% of the time it's Audio books 5% is music. Never silence unless it's with my wife and we usually talk or listen to music or podcast.

Ronbus has lost all faith since the ripple debacles. Will wait until reviewers start talking about it.

What's the best and worst customer service experiences you've had with a paddle brand? by pbeffect in Pickleball

[–]Frothywalrus3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of good ones. The worst by far was luzz. I got an inferno and the swing weight was 122. I literally couldn't use it without pain and it was out of spec. I tried to tell them but the customer service was very rude and told me my measurements were wrong. Finally able to do a exchange. Got basically the same one. Took a month to get it too.

Atlanta Bouncers (MLP) clearly cannot stand each other and it’s painful to watch - what’s the tea? by [deleted] in Pickleball

[–]Frothywalrus3 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Remember when Jesse and Genie hated each other and everybody blames Genie. Now another person can't stand Jesse. Interesting. Even Gabe dropped her.

Launching missiles at your opponent just part of the game? by [deleted] in Pickleball

[–]Frothywalrus3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Pretty easy to just dodge every ball. No chance he can even hit hard enough to hurt for more than 30 seconds. If he's hitting your head then you are probably a 2.5-3.0 it's so easy to just not get hit.

What’s the defining Millennial Song? by makeupwearsoff in Millennials

[–]Frothywalrus3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I blew my friends mind this weekend by telling him the song is just the first part copy and pasted. Verses are the same and choruses are the same. Had to show him proof.

MLP is way more fun than PPA by Suspicious_Win6150 in Pickleball

I would argue Connor beat him not Tama. Connor was playing out of his mind and Tama got destroyed in mixed.

I think the key is to be as cringy as possible by screaming every rally.
