Pickleball Paddle - Engage Poach Infinity EX | Standard Shape, Made in America

Never before has so much research and development gone into paddle development. Designed for those players who have (or tendency to have) tennis elbow and want a soft feeling control paddle, the NEW Poach Advantage is the most advanced paddle in the market, engineered to take the game and you to the next level. It is the most technologically advanced paddle available today.

The paddle's Vibration Dampening Skin Eliminates vibration at the point of contact (at its source), not lower within the paddle or via other objects placed inside the paddle that only stops it from traveling to the hand. This technology is complemented by the Counterweight Technology, which lowers the center of mass (balance point) closer to the player's hand, mitigating the risk of tennis elbow by making the paddle more balanced (not head heavy, a primary cause of tennis elbow) and increasing maneuverability (hand speed).

The Proprietary ControlPro 'Black' Polymer Core creates the softest hitting paddle for those who prefer a soft-feeling paddle or have a tendency for tennis elbow, as it helps mitigate vibration. The Variable Release Technology, a proprietary 6-layer skin, produces more power the faster the player swings, when desired.

The Omni-directional Friction-based Texture offers multiple benefits: 1) Roughness that spreads out in all directions to create more spin, 2) Surface 'friction' that hits the upper limits / range allowed, and 3) the softest skin (and core) that holds the ball longer, the main factor in producing spin. The Variable Flex Technology is designed to flex at the point of contact for more 'forgiving' shot making.

The paddle is available in two weight options: Lite (7.5 - 7.85 oz) and Standard (7.9 - 8.3 oz), with a Length of 16" and Width of 8". The Handle Dimensions (which may vary up to 1/8") include a Circumference of Standard (4 1/4") with a cushion wrap and a Length of 5.25".

The paddle's materials include a Proprietary Polymer Composite (Control Pro 'Black' Technology) core and a Proprietary Omni-directional friction-based 6-layer texture Composite surface. Designed to Pass Most Stringent Community Noise Requirements, the NEW Poach Advantage is USAPA Listed and Approved for Tournament Play.
