Babolat RBEL Graphite Skin Pickleball Paddle
The Babolat RBEL Pickleball Paddle has a sensitive feel combined with a shock resistant, dynamic design. The 7.58-ounce RBEL is molded around a 14mm polypropylene honeycomb core that is surrounded by EVA foam. The 14mm thickness allows this paddle to offer control and a smidge of power, while the EVA foam increases the size of the sweet spot and the twistweight during off center strikes. The lightweight feel of this core also allows this paddle to feel extremely maneuverable when you are battling near the net.
The Babolat RBEL Pickleball Paddle has a blended carbon and fiberglass face and polypropylene core which is very sturdy but allows players to feel connected to their swings. This blended face is known as graphite skin technology and is coated in Rough Paint that allows you to impart impressive spin, further adding balance to this versatile 11.14” x 7.8” hitting surface. The handle is 5” long so that you have a little extra room for paddle manipulation but get to enjoy a large surface area. The moisture-absorbing grip has a small circumference so that you aren’t battling against bulk, although you can add an overgrip for additional padding.
The Babolat RBEL Pickleball Paddle is made to accommodate various play styles while providing you with comfort, protection, and control.

Decent Paddle

I like the light weight although the grip is a little larger than I anticipated. Have played about 6 times with it and no complaints.

Like it better than my Pursuit EX 6.0 lite. 3.5-4 senior. Better touch. Same power and spin.

Great paddle
Feb 18, 2022
This is my first pickleball paddle, but I love using it and find it easy to generate lots of spin when needed and I’m able to put the ball where I want around the court.

Great paddle!

Very happy with the paddle! I'm a relatively new pickleballer but all my tennis rackets are Babolat, so I wanted to give the Babolat paddles a try. I wanted to try the TOUCH model of the paddle and have been pleasantly surprised by the amount of power still accessible. Great paddle!

Best Paddle

Bought this paddle about six months ago and my playing has improved so much. Great feel when driving the ball and just enough grip on face to generate spin. So glad I made the investment.

Rbel Power

This paddle is a great step up from my starter paddle. Even at 8.1 ounces it still gives the user great feel when play slows down. Impressed with the quality and playability of the Rbel.
