Like I said, my favorite and current paddle is the Selkirk Power Air - the ratings in the video were created by my friend Darsh, who was testing the paddles.
Join me as I help my friend, Darsh, a 4.5 player and a former D1 tennis player, find the perfect pickleball paddle for his unique style. The video guides you through the essential steps to properly test paddles, equipping you with the know-how to choose your own.
Remember, everyone's game style is unique, and that’s why your paddle should be too! We cover different methods to test out paddles, whether that be borrowing from friends, demo-ing them in stores, or bringing demos to the courts. For those of you who may not have access to a good sports store, don't worry! We've got you covered with creative solutions.
We'll stress the importance of comparing multiple paddles at once. Testing paddles over different days makes it difficult to notice the subtle differences that could determine which one is the best fit for you.
We also break down key features of pickleball paddles you should consider: Power, Control, Forgivingness (Sweetspot size), Spin, and Weight. Understanding these features will provide you with the right insight when selecting your paddle.
