Element Pickleball Paddle (Blue)

I am a long-time tennis player and I quickly became addicted to Pickleball. I did some research on paddles and chose this one for the balanced weight and slightly rough surface. It is a very good paddle and I plan on using it for a while.

I was using a cheap paddle when I first learned. My instructor advised my purchases of this paddle. I instantly loved it. Lighter but felt solid in my hand. Not sure my game improved but certainly felt I had a better grip.

Ordered this pickleball racket as an upgrade but it was too light and the balls had no punch.. Really disappointed but it was easy to return and I upgraded to a more expensive racket and a little bit heavier..

Good solid paddle. One is able to have a soft touch at the kitchen line , and good action when you are at the baseline . The grip is well made.

This paddle is light good quality.

Very disappointed with product sent. One face of paddle prince label is badly laminated and with no hardline Simone signature. Made to self ship back for replacement. Incurred extra cost of 23 SGD for shipping.Hope to get discount from original purchase price.

It has a natural feel for me. Nice handle, nice weight. I like the shape better than those that are a little less rounded.

First off, the paddle doesn’t come with a rubber edge guard, it’s just tape. Admittedly a small detail, but it would be nice to have. I had a really hard time finding the sweet spot on this paddle. I’m relatively new to pickleball, but I’m already getting the sense that graphite is the way to go. Ive played with graphite paddles that have a great feeling of inertia and “pop” when you hit them right. I’m not getting that feeling from this paddle and instead feel like I have to work harder in general to get the same results. I will be trying to exchange this paddle.
