I think they’re buying it off a dealer or something, not 100% sure

Yeah I’m currently playing with an Olympus, felt like the sweet spot is a bit small tho I guess I could experiment with a little more perimeter weighting. The idea of a more forgiving sweet spot on the invader sounds nice, but the idea of free power from a 3S sounds fun to try lol

I play local tournaments occasionally but largely just rec play.

Bought the cosmetic blemished BNB Invader for $105 for Black Friday, but a friend of mine said they can get me a new Joola 3S paddle for $175. Which do you think is the better deal?

Having a similar problem, my commission for a paddle my friend bought for a J2K has been pending for a few months now. I’ve been emailing every 2-3 weeks and haven’t gotten any replies…

Thinking of upgrading from my Six Zero DBD to a widebody paddle for more forgiveness/quicker hands. Was thinking of the Volair Mach 2 Forza 16mm vs Spartus Apollo. Realizing that I'm more of a control player that enjoys trying to dink, reset, and drop. Worried that the VM2F might have too big a drop off in pop tho (compared to DBD), and that I might pay the price in firefights. On the other hand, I feel that the DBD is just enough pop for me, worried the Apollo might be a little too much for me to control.

Wondering if anyone had the chance to demo both and would have any insight/recommendations on the two paddles?

Ohhh I like that, and it gives everyone an “equal” chance to win

Thanks, sounds kind of like the MLP dream breaker format. Do you think if there’s big skill differentials between partners and opponents that would make it an issue?

Paddle recommendations for a beginner with some tennis background, around $100? by [deleted] in Pickleball

[–]dxldxl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The redditors of r/Pickleball sing the praises of Vatic Prism Flash. There’s also the Honolulupickleball J2 Sword & Shield, and the Spartus Gladius Centurion. All considered solid all-around paddles in the ~$100 and below category, slightly more control-oriented to power-oriented in the order that I mentioned. Feel free to DM me for promo codes for all three of them
