Here are a few paddles I recommend to members who are looking for new ones:

2025 Evo Pickleball Paddle from SLK by Selkirk – I recommend this paddle if you enjoy playing but aren’t ready to make a big price commitment.

JOOLA Ben Johns Hyperion C2 CFS 16 Pickleball Paddle – A top-of-the-line option, especially before they switched to the Gen 3 model.

MACH 1 FORZA Pickleball Paddle – This is a great middle-ground paddle for players who have good power and need more control.

Vatic Pro Prism Carbon Fiber 16mm – A fan favorite. I recommend this paddle to almost everyone as it teaches you a lot about your game.

Six Zero Double Black Diamond Control 16mm Paddle – If I didn’t enjoy playing with my MX 6.0 so much, I’d switch to this paddle. It’s a great blend of power and control.
