New Pickleball paddle

Hi all,

I’m a curious poster.

I’ve been playing pickleball in Ireland (Its not very popular) I’m from an engineering background and i love the tech involved in the game.

I want to create my own brand of pickle ball paddles and i wanted to get some feedback from people already more involved in the sport.

I’ve seen a few posts on this forum that state Thermoformed paddles have better build quality and will last longer but also I have seen informatioin that some Thermoformed paddles have major issues like core crushing.

I’m steering towards a cold cut paddle with 3d18k Carbon to keep the surface materials as high quality as possible while keeping the core material as well known and understood as possible.

Would love to hear some feedback.

Thanks
D
