Watch us use our new-and-improved, one-of-a-kind pickleball cannon to see just how fast we can get a pickleball to fly! We've been teasing this for a bit and for those already asking, we originally built the cannon to do destructive paddle testing--to see which materials held up best against the rigors of repeated ball impacts. We also use it to better understand the dynamics of the ball itself. Combining the controlled consistency of the pickleball cannon and the precision of the chronograph gives us a more accurate perspective than random hits measured by a radar gun! Something you'd li ..read more

It's no secret that more and more paddle companies are starting up every day. Overseas factories are pumping out paddles as quickly as pickleball players will buy them, but is there really anything unique about one versus the other? In the case of our paddles, we can say "absolutely". Check it out for yourself: Our paddles don't just come from some nameless/faceless overseas factory. We build them ourselves in our shop in Washington State, adding performance-enhancing features you won't find anywhere else. We're not new to this game and have been developing and manufacturing paddles for a dec ..read more

Earth Day is upon us and we couldn't be more excited to celebrate the positive impact we've helped to make through our partnership with the charities One Tree Planted and Trees for the Future. As a company committed to doing what we can to help protect the environment, we're proud to have planted a tree for every single pickleball paddle we've ever sold, helping to create a greener future for our planet. From the time of this post through Earth Day (4/22), instead of just one tree planted per paddle sold, we will help to plant 10 trees for every paddle we sell! We're not just planting trees, w ..read more

The number on a price tag is a fascinating thing. Two people with similar backgrounds and financial circumstances could look at the same product with the same price tag and have two very different reactions. A high price tag can be attractive to those who associate it with high quality and an element of luxury while others may perceive it as being over-priced and a poor value. Similarly, a low price tag could be viewed as an excellent bargain by some but an indicator of poor quality to others. Is either perception entirely right or wrong? To help get to the bottom of this, ask y ..read more

The holiday shopping season is once again upon us and for many, that's a mixture of joy and anxiety. Unfortunately, the 2021 shopping season is bringing with it more anxiety than usual. A combination of global supply chain issues, labor shortages, and transportation challenges from all of the major shipping companies means getting your gifts ordered ASAP is more important than ever. We'd like to be able to offer a shipping deadline and to guarantee delivery before the 25th, but given the shipping inconsistencies over the past year, we just aren't comfortable offering a guarantee that ..read more

As the year winds to a close, we're taking a well-earned few-days break away from paddle production. As a result, you may notice some paddles going out of stock and appearing as "Currently Unavailable". Never fear, though, we're simply selling all of the pre-made paddles we have in stock and will ramp production up again in the new year! We're quite excited to have the Rogue2Q and Rogue2MAX paddles in the pipeline and to continue production of the already-successful Rogue2 and Rogue2E, as well as the affordable Scout!  2021 feels like turning the page to a brighter chapter ahead in s ..read more
