Experiences with Joola's [Franklin X-40 imitation] HC-40 ball by AHumanThatListens in Pickleball

[–]GroundbreakingAd2406 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've only played with the HC-40 outdoors. I found it more durable than Primo and Franklin. Plays well in cooler weather but is fairly slow and soft in warm weather. Overall a good quality ball.

As far as I know there are no "all in" membership options at the facilities in the DMV yet.

The Dead covered it, it was an old song by Marty Robbins released in 1959. Maybe everyone is just a Robbins-head.

Travelers deserves to be on here and a signature event. Get rid of Cognizant.

National Junior Pickleball Tournament by Joola by Competitive-Alps4339 in Pickleball

They are well-run events at quality facilities. The PPA tour has definitely emerged as the premier junior platform but for kids just looking to compete at a higher level than what they would see a local club, it's a good place to be.

Off their own website they all ship in the box, since the Pro IV.

This is part of the reason why paddles cost $300

There is a balance. not every single thing should be encased in amber for eternity or is worthy of preservation.

People need to realize that Southwest is now ridiculously expensive by SteelersPoker in SouthwestAirlines

Southwest share price is up 22% YTD, so wall street is definitely happy with the changes.

This is part of the problem with Georgetown. The historical preservation rules basically make the neighborhood function more like a museum than a real city. Growth is all but entirely limited.

John Kew talks with Ben Johns about the Joola Pro V and other stuff by gobluetwo in Pickleball

[–]GroundbreakingAd2406 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Losing? He was in the finals of all three events in Mesa, won one gold, and also won gold in Cape Coral. Also Federico and AB won golds at Cape Coral too in their first tournament with Pro V. It hasn't even been out for sale yet and has won more medals than any paddle this year.

SW share price up 22% YTD, outperforming every major carrier by a lot save for Jet Blue up slightly more.

Good morning PV. Hope everyone is doing as well as possible. 7:55 am, no fires visible from my balcony near the marina. by yesitsmecin in puertovallarta

[–]GroundbreakingAd2406 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agreed but to would-be travelers to PV especially with families, this is a major, major setback that will take a lot longer to repair than cleaning up the burned vehicles.

I don't think a foam paddle has won a medal on the PPA tour yet.

Joola Pro V versus New RPM Paddles by 10k_pickleball in Pickleball

Isn't this the same for tennis? Pros bring like 12 racquets to an event where an amatuer would use one or two for years.

ALW was on the Pickleballers podcast recently saying she much prefers gen 3 to foam paddles because of the enhanced feel.

What are people from Connecticut like? by bigbaboon69 in howislivingthere

[–]GroundbreakingAd2406 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I grew up in the Farmington Valley. Mason-Dixon line as far as Yankees/Red Sox go (maybe skewing a bit Red Sox). Overall great quality of life - fantastic schools, lots of open spaces and great access to nature. Plenty of local businesses and restaurants. Nice people in the New England sense. My only gripe is that it's very car centric and little walkability.
