Although pickleball isn’t a new sport, is it surging in popularity. And unlike some other things, people are loving this surge. The hybrid of tennis, badminton, and ping pong is easy to learn, accessible, and fun for all ages. But before you get started, you need to sort through all the pickleball paddles to find your perfect match.
The most important thing is to find one with a weight and grip size that works for you. But arguably more important than the function? The fashion.
Forget about plain, boring, solid-color paddles. You want to dazzle your competition on the court with a style that shows off your personality! And then with a killer serve.
And in the likely event that you want to try out the game, we rounded up our favorite pickleball paddles so you’re equipped to crush your enemies. Or play a friendly game with your elderly neighbor. We love the versatility.
