Phoenix Pro Pickleball Paddle
The Phoenix Pro Pickleball Paddle by Paddletek is a fantastic choice for beginners, pros, and everyone in between thanks to its classic shape and size. The lightly-textured vinyl face allows players to impart as much spin as their hearts desire, while the unique polymer honeycomb core provides quieter play without sacrificing any pop. This paddle has a vivid, color subtly enhanced with the Paddletek logo. The color itself makes its own strong statement.
The 7 3/4" wide face combined with the total length of 15-5/8” gives the Phoenix Pro Composite paddle a truly traditional shape. 5” of this length is taken up by the handle, which allows the remaining amount to be purely dedicated to the face. Players love that the edge guard only overlaps 1/8” of the almost-rectangle face, which gives them a smaller chance of mishitting due to the ball bouncing off the edge guard. The perfectly average grip is a great choice for players or for those who are unsure of their exact grip size. Weighing in at 8.4 to 8.85 ounces, this paddle provides players with effortless power.
The Phoenix Pro will undoubtedly give players that extra combative edge.

Different Paddle Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Fredericksburg, VA United States I was looking for something different and I found it. Our club has several Champion graphite paddles which are fine. We have both large and small grips. There are a few aluminum paddles in the club we can borrow. After consulting with a customer service rep, I decided on the Phoenix ProPaddle. It had the larger grip I wanted and was the right weight. It also had the tear drop shape I was looking to try. According to the rep, this paddle has a durable face and 5 year guarantee against soft spots. The biggest difference I notice is the ball comes off the paddle face a lot slower than the graphite paddle. This takes some getting used to. The trade off is that I feel that I have more control over the ball. The face has a slight texture which helps impart some spin on the than I was getting with the Champion paddle.
Love this paddle Reviewer: Dave Anthony from St Augustine, FL United States It's a little heavier (which I wanted) and excellent for those who do not want much 'arm jarring' ... has a slight shock absorbing effect when the ball me lands on the paddle and yet is quite responsive when I go on offense. I like it 'much better' than the graphite on aluminum paddles that I have.
Nice paddle,Great SERVICE Reviewer: Mike T from Carlsbad, CA United States Paddle has solid feel with volleys and ground strokes. Good touch feel for dinks.
Phoenix Pro Reviewer: Samuel Baker from Monmouth, IL United States I have had a chance to play with this paddle for a couple weeks now...I love the touch this paddle has hitting drop shots and dinks...hits with power and control...Great paddle for the serious player
Phoenix Pro Padddle Reviewer: EDWARD KNAPP from Boulder City NV United States Good solid paddle, smooth face so it's not conducive to spinning the ball if that's your style. Hits well over the entire surface, so there's no dead spots on this forgiving large face. Stiff rebound, but once used to it, it gives an even response so it's great for slamming, then dinking cross net. Nice feel for touch shots after you get used to its power, easy to place the ball too with its consistent ball rebound. A great all round paddle, solidly built.
Phoenix Pro paddle Reviewer: Don Yabiku from Landisville, PA United States I really like this paddle. Playing with the Phoenix Pro gives me greater control at the nvz and with dinks than my Z5. There is a slight loss of speed on power shots but I would rather have more control anyway. Pickle Ball Central is a great company and a pleasure to deal with.
Phoenix Pro Paddle Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Manchester, NH United States Nice medium weight with sticky grip. The lemon-lime color camouflages the ball.
Phoenix Pro Paddle Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Leavenworth, KS United States Love it, Love it, Love it! This paddle gives me great touch, spin, power. The weight (8.6) is perfect for me. After playing for several months with it, the only wear showing is the grip-and that is due to a wrist support I have to wear. I would not trade my paddle for any other.
Plastic paddle gone right Reviewer: David Swick from Simpsonville, SC United States I really didn't want to try the Phoenix paddle but I bought one anyhow after talking with your sales people. WOW, this is a great, no, AWESOME paddle. It really hits good. I'm a very aggressive player and it hits really nice. Plus the 5 year warranty is hard to match. The image I had about this paddle was the image of those cheap one's sold on Ebay with all the cool graphics. This paddle is 1/2" thick and has great control. It feels heavy and light at the same time. Almost like a hammer. It was great for overheads and hard hitting and also for finesse shots.
Phoenix Pro Paddle Reviewer: Pat Wolf from South Bend, IN United States Has a bit more weight than my previous paddle, which I wanted to try out. I like it, especially for near the net play.
An excellent choice Reviewer: William Holmes from Hendersonville, NC United States I ordered this Paddletek paddle because it was recommended to me by a local tournament-level champion as an average weight paddle with great response. It is considered a "quiet" paddle with its internal honeycomb design. I now have four paddles of various weights and composition and I believe this one is going to be the one I'll use most often. I highly recommend it.
