Rivelle Blue

My Rivelle is close in weight and dimension to my previous paddle, so the transition from old to new was very easy. Great combination of control and power, with a surface that lends itself to spin. It feels great in the hand and has a beautiful look.

I have been playing for around a year with an entry level paddle and had advanced to about 4.0. Going from the simple, no tech paddle to the Rivelle Blue now feels like I'm playing a new game. Putting some spin on the ball is now much easier and the sweet spot, what a difference.

I’m on my second one. i experienced tennis elbow years ago playing racquetball. When I first started playing pickleball, it wasn’t unusual to see players with straps around their forearms indicating they were dealing with tennis elbow. Not wanting to experience that again, I researched paddles that minimized vibration. Research led me to ProKennix. I used a Black Ace. Once they were banned (temporarily) I was looking for another paddle that minimized vibration. A friend of mine bought one when they were first released. He was pleased with it, so I decided to try one. I find It’s as powerful as a Black Ace, but, with more control. When I serve, more often than not, I can place the ball, with power, exactly where I aim, which results in poor returns, and, even aces. One thing that I really appreciate is how long the handle wrap lasts. ProKennix handle wraps wear out quickly, and, it’s a pain to replace and adjust to the different feel. I am very pleased with your paddle. Whenever I find something I like, I stick with it. I recently bought another one.
