Hi Jack!
I just want to let you know I haven't forgotten about you and returning the demo paddles. We've had a lot of rain here in Michigan but have been able to get out to try the paddles a few times just the same. My daughter and I definitely will each be ordering paddles and my brother as well...
Jack
Thanks for the upgrade allowance.
The Chaos H Special Edition with Polymer Core and carbon fiber diamond weave surface has made a significant difference in my game.
Jack this is Lawrence from Florida. I used the new Kratos H Special Edition paddle all morning. The carbon fiber diamond weave is incredible.
Jack, received the paddle, used it last night, I like it, the design as well. Today the bag came! Best case I have seen, nice job on design, it will be an example of what a PB case should be.
I tried out my new chaos paddle yesterday and I love the feel of the ball as it rebounds off the paddle face, soft but powerful! I am a lefty and happy I ordered a TSD custom paddle.
"Wow! What a great paddle! I purchased mine this spring & it truly improved my game! Once my friends tried it, each one ordered a Third Shot Drop paddle. ..."
Pickleball rules are full of quirks. And no technicality causes more tiffs or challenges than the “re-establishment” rule. Pros hate getting called for it. You’re probably not getting called for it enough.
Ever notice how the pros make the game look like it’s moving at .5 speed? There’s nothing slow about their play; they’ve just mastered a principle that puts them one step ahead on nearly every shot. It’s called “cornering the ball” — and it’s the difference between hitting measured, intentional shots at the kitchen line and reaching to stab at that inevitable pop-up.
Knowing when to attack at the kitchen line is a critical skill as you face better and better opponents. But knowing where to attack is what separates good attempts from points scored. PPA pro Eric Roddy is an assassin in the short game. It’s not because he’s the most skilled or powerful player out there; it’s because he knows when to go on offense — and how to hit every shot with intention.
Unless you’re new here, you should already know the golden rule for beating bangers at their own game: use their power against them. Zane Navratil doubles down on this mantra in a new video, stressing the point to the max: "If you start out with the mentality of slowing down the banger, you've already lost to the banger."
