Heavyweight Pickleball Paddles
Power and stability are the best attributes of heavyweight pickleball paddles, even when you don't find the sweet spot. A heavier paddle can absorb stress and vibration better than a lighter paddle, which might be helpful for players who suffer from a previous elbow injury. A 9-oz pickleball paddle qualifies as a heavyweight and may be the most feel-friendly and powerful paddle—thanks to the added weight. A middleweight or lightweight paddle is a good choice for players who lack the strength for a larger paddle or who value mobility. Those who have played tennis before, are already quite strong, or are just searching for a little more speed will find that the heaviest pickleball paddle is a better fit.
