Source: USA Pickleball Approved Equipment List. Specs not on the official list show as "Not listed" until we verify them.
Weights, dimensions and MSRP come from manufacturer or retailer pages, are checked by an editor before they appear, and link to their source. MSRP is the list price on the date shown, not a live price.
What these specs mean
- Core thickness
- A 16 mm core is the most common choice for control. The extra depth absorbs more impact, which tends to make dinks and resets easier to keep low, with a little less pop.
- Face
- Carbon fiber faces are stiff and light, generally favoring control and a consistent response.
These are typical tendencies of each construction. Weight, balance, surface treatment and each brand's specific materials also change how a paddle plays.
Pro tour legality (UPA-A)
Amateur and USA Pickleball–sanctioned events accept paddles on the USA Pickleball list. PPA Tour and MLP pro events require UPA-A certification.
- UPA-A
- Not on the UPA-A list
We only link a UPA-A entry when brand, model and core thickness clearly match; uncertain pairs wait for review. If you think this paddle is on the UPA-A list, check the source below.
