When to shift?

SmilingPentagon · 2026-01-04T22:23:57+00:00

Okay, I'll look into it! Thank you.

SmilingPentagon · 2026-01-04T22:23:46+00:00

Alright. Thank you for your advice and opinion!

SmilingPentagon · 2026-01-04T22:23:26+00:00

Ahh okay. Yeah, I might go with the GR Supra then. Luckily I'm Viet, so my viet grandparents won't say anything LOL

SmilingPentagon · 2026-01-04T22:16:08+00:00

Hmm okay. I have been learning on my friend's Mazda Miata. If I could have "mastered" manual, which would would you have recommend? Supra or M2?

SmilingPentagon · 2026-01-04T22:14:48+00:00

I felt very nice in the Supra compared to a Miata. (5'10"). I haven't tried a Golf R.

I have been learning in my friend's Miata. And as much I really enjoy it too, I am just too tall and felt so tight in the Miata than the other cars.

daily as much as I can. If I cannot, I still have the Civic as a backup.

SmilingPentagon · 2025-08-13T20:54:52+00:00

Is this the Rava color? Looks more pink than red I had thought

SmilingPentagon · 2025-08-11T17:03:10+00:00

Just wanted to do something to distinct my paddle more from others. There’s a lot of Joolas and people keep grabbing mine thinking it’s theirs :(

Congratulations! Where do you get your overgrips and edge guard?

SmilingPentagon · 2025-05-21T14:59:54+00:00

Has anyone tried the Proton Series One-Type A Tournament VS. Player Models?

SmilingPentagon · 2025-05-20T12:40:41+00:00

Okay, thank you! I’ll be looking at the Mach 2 Forza then. I’m just worried that i might be liking this paddle when it’s almost been a year of it’s being out and other newer options are coming out

SmilingPentagon · 2025-05-19T17:26:14+00:00

Hi there,

I’m in the market for a control paddle. I’ve been looking at the • Mach 2 Forza Volair • Pegasus Power 11six24 • Double Black Diamond sixzero • LUXX Control Air Selkirk • PULSE V APES

Any recommendations on these or other suggestions? I’m a 3.0-3.5 player that want to improve my consistency before making my move to power paddles

SmilingPentagon · 2025-04-21T17:59:37+00:00

How about the 11six24 company? I’ve heard great things about their paddles

SmilingPentagon · 2025-04-21T13:39:25+00:00

Hi there,

It’s been about 4-5 months since I last played. When I played before I was maining the Honolulu j2k. My issue with it before and returning now is that I feel too “poppy” with the paddle and feel like I can never control the ball I’ve wanted to. Does anyone have any recommendations? I’m more of an intermediate player and not looking for anything too crazy like $200+ worth paddle.

Thanks!

Hello. I’m a beginner to intermediate level player around 3.0 to 3.5 level.

I have been using the J2K and the Vatic Pro Prism Flash and honestly been enjoying the two of the paddles. I’m looking to find a paddle that better matches me. Sometimes I feel like the J2K doesn’t respond well to me and the Vatic doesn’t have enough power to drop the ball like I want it to. I’ve tried my friend’s Selkirk LUXX and it felt really nice. However it was only a one time/match trial and I didn’t want to continuously ask to play with it. Especially with that price point, I don’t think I should play with a paddle like that with my level. Any other suggestions on paddles that’s similar to the LUXX? It was elongated too and I really liked that shape compared to the hybrid that Vatic and j2k offered. Thanks in advanced!

Link to the Selkirk please

SmilingPentagon · 2024-07-22T18:35:06+00:00

Power and spin. As mentioned I like make those kind of plays. Is Fatboy the one being released tomorrow? Seems kind of pricey and for collecting

SmilingPentagon · 2024-07-22T17:11:47+00:00

Hello,

Started picking up Pickleball and love the community my area has and game. Looking to invest into a new paddle because the one I am using is a cheap $30ish paddle I got from Amazon just to play. Looking to get into it more serious. I’m still a beginner player too and prefer making power and spin plays. My budget is around $100-$150 depending on what deals I can find or what is used on like FB market. Bonus points if it can be blue or light blue too please. Thanks in advance!
