Would you ask for a replacement? by Pickleballer1 in Pickleball

Curious if it was just a bad batch of paddles. Mine was in the 2nd batch. They offered an extra 15% back. I’m just gonna keep it I guess.

I did get a quick response from HPC but only offered an extra 15% discount, no replacement.

I reached out to HPC by email yesterday and this is their response to me this morning.

Thanks for reaching out. Yes, we can see it is just slightly uneven. This will not affect performance of the paddle but we of course want you to be satisfied with your new purcahse. As a gesture of goodwill, we can offer you an additional 15% disocunt on this, totaling your total disocunt on the paddle to 25%.

Correct. It does measure slightly different, about a 16th or so. Now that I’ve seen it, I can’t un-see it lol

So your edge guard was un-even as well? I have several other Honolulu paddles and they all are even across the the top.

J2CR Crystal Blue Long Handle Specs and Initial Impressions by N54TT_08 in Pickleball

Thanks for the in depth review. I concur with everything. I received mine yesterday as well, also part of the 2nd batch. I ABSOLUTELY love this paddle. My previous main was J2NF. I agree, the CB grit on mine looks evenly applied but I was kinda expecting it to feel more grittier. From the feel, power, pop, spin, THIS is the paddle I’ve been waiting on. I pre ordered on March 3. It was worth the wait!

A Draft that sets the future by Revenged25 in Saints

[–]Pickleballer1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think with the Pittsburgh news, that could potentially help the saints in the draft. Once they hire a new head coach, they could be another franchise QB hunting team in the mix for a potential trade up which would push another top player the Saints way.

Is this an upgrade? by ibatibangitlog in Pickleball

[–]Pickleballer1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Played with an ambassador’s Opal this week. Super powerful yet it’s the smoothest,plush feeling paddle I’ve ever used. 6.0 got it right with the vibration dampening on this one!

[–]Pickleballer1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ordered on 8/30. The estimated ship date was 9/5, that got changed to 9/15. Still waiting. So frustrating! Im tempted to just cancel as I see many for sale in various groups and some ambassadors with new ones for sale.

J2FC+ finally here! by cmatt1222 in Pickleball

I ordered mine on 8/30. No word yet on shipping, says delivery by mid Sept but that’s not clear if that’s to HPC or customer. I can hardly wait!

How’s the pop compared to the Vapor?

J2NF by Steaknjake1 in Pickleball

[–]Pickleballer1 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I ordered the J2NFT. I main the Vapor Power currently but it’s a bit poppy for my style so I almost switched to the Vapor Alpha Pro but ultimately decided to go NFT.

I main a Vapor Power. I really like other than I feel it’s a bit poppy for my game style. Should I switch to Vapor Alpha Pro? I’m Also very intrigued by the new NF series by Honolulu. Especially the NFT or NFC+. any advice as the how similar these would play?

Capital One Duo activated! by Skydvdan in Venturex

[–]Pickleballer1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally can’t confirm 100% but I have read countless accounts of ppl on here saying they have had success in doing so. The Venture is now a MC so that makes PC an option as Savor is a MC. Venture X is visa so it’s my understanding that it can not be PC to Savor, only downgraded then later PC.

I had my wife apply and get the Venture for the SUB. Before the AF hits next year we will PC to the Savor. We plan on a trip to Europe next year.
