Why Our Elongated Paddle Handle Makes a Difference

Why Our Elongated Paddle Handle Makes a Difference

We design pickleball equipment with real players in mind — especially those who are picking up the sport for the first time after playing other racket sports.

Many of our customers come from tennis, badminton, or padel. And if that’s you, you’ll notice one thing right away when you hold a Serve paddle:
It just feels right.

That’s because our paddles come with an elongated handle, and it’s not by accident.

What Is an Elongated Paddle Handle?

An elongated handle is slightly longer than a standard pickleball paddle grip.
It’s designed to give players more space to hold the paddle with one or two hands — especially useful for backhand shots or players with longer grips.

Why It Helps

Here’s why an elongated handle matters, especially for players with a background in other racket sports:

  • Two-Handed Backhands: Just like in tennis, a longer handle gives more stability and control for two-handed shots.

  • More Reach: The added length helps cover more court with less effort — great for net play and quick reactions.

  • Familiar Feel: If you’re used to holding a badminton or tennis racket, this grip will feel more natural.

  • More Power: A longer handle can create better leverage, giving your shots more force without losing control.

Designed for Transition and Performance

We know many pickleball players are coming from other sports. That’s why we made sure our paddle design helps make the transition smoother and your performance stronger from Day One.

Serve paddles are tested, trusted, and made to deliver — whether you're just starting out or training to compete.
