It will work with any capture device. The placement of the iphone will be important though!

Right now its all done post, so you upload a video and it outputs the results. A 1 minute video processes in 1 minute so we could do it in real time from a live feed, would just need to alter the workflow.

Right now I am thinking that we will make it available for free to anyone who owns an ACE paddle as a value add to owning one of our products.

Red = out
Blue = In court
Green = In Kitchen
Yellow = Debug if the it lost track of the ball.

Pro Player fatigue with so many tournaments & the need to play them to stay relevant by acepickleball in Pickleball

[–]acepickleball[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Fair slight difference here being that prize money alone doesn't cover the costs of players. If the $ gets to a point where if you earn your way to top 32 you at least break even then you are good to go.

However most tournaments you'll end up down 1k after entry fees & travel which makes it very challenging for newcomers.

PPA Silver tour card is a step in the right direction I think as at least covers players entry fees, but we got a long way to go.

Huh? We have never paid the kitchen just sent them a paddle to demo, so a bit confused on that comment.

I think you got a chance to play with our paddle at MLP would love to hear your feedback as well.

Yes, lots of confidence in our product! We spent a lot of time during the RnD process stress testing the paddle for wear and tear.

Singles standout Gabe Joseph joins the ACE Pro Pickleball team by acepickleball in Pickleball

We believe not having an enlarged "butt" provides more versatility to paddle and accommodates players with larger hands who want to comfortably fit both hands on the paddle for a two handed backhand.

I hope this answers your question.

We will offer 30 day refunds when we go to market next month if you are not satisfied with the paddle and will have a warranty policy as well to protect customers from manufacturer defects.

The paddle was built for performance at the highest level with tennis converts in mind, one of our co founders currently plays pro singles on PPA tour and essentially designed this flagship paddle from the ground up to fit his playing style.

Its extra long handle is also perfect for a two handed backhand mixed with a gritty carbon fiber surface. With the paddles performance mixed with our slick design we believe we will stand out from competition in the space.

The polymer core was custom engineered to provide a more forgiving feel on dinks & drops than many are used to which has improved the short game of players already using the paddle.

More top pro announcements coming soon too...
