Justin’s nerd town sections should be listened to by all paddle reviewers. I believe some things they say due to not knowing precisely all the tech would change and thus help what we uneducated masses regurgitate out of our lack of knowledge. I do wish Justin had shared why they chose not to pursue the titanium weave face material.
wonder if it's because he was suspicious of the "titanium" being used, which has now been proven to be polyester instead. He might have had his suspicions and probably wouldn't have been able to "sell" a polyester weave paddle as well as Bread and Butter.
Already lightspeed ahead of other pickleball podcasts in terms of paddle tech knowledge and explanations, keep up the amazing work on building up nerdtown!
1. Is Justin on the PbS discord or is the nerding out reserved for the comments/engagement? Regardless we are here for it. 2. Do epoxy manufacturers have different attributes available for manufacturers such as more flexible, tacky, vibration dampening, elastic. 3. Does it have to be epoxy? Can it be polyurea/polyaspartic like used in garage/industrial applications. Chemically different, but applications are similar. I’ve seen examples of them coating wood/plywood so some flexiblity isn’t an issue and some advertise greater durability. Maybe a how a manufacturer selects materials segment is in order. Where you pick a component and let us know the various reasons from a manufacturing and play characteristic standpoint. 😁🤓 Other manufacturers thoughts would be interesting too (I.e. chorus guy with his frequency theory) Keep it up guys, da-Da-da-da-Da I’m lovin’ it!
I just purchased the Aniviia bag. I had bought the BnB/KTCHN colab bag because I like all the features it has and organization, but it lacks space in the main compartment for all the stuff I like to pack (extra clothes, oversized towel, and I like my shoes to go in the bag to keep it streamlined). If they update it with removable paddle sleeves, I'll probably buy it again. I think that would fix the issue.
I wonder if titanium being metal would open up future application of magnetic material to the paddle. Putting two and two together approach, magnetic property can be used with planar magnetic diaphragm to offer potential opportunity to monitor and even dampen the paddle surface. With advacement in tws, true wireless earphones, you can get an app control over microphones and transducers operating on coin cell battery with 8 hours run time. I can't say if someone will pursue this, but ball contact on the paddle can generate a lot of unstructured data for use on many desirable applications, like hitting performance statistics and adaptive dampening. Obviously weight can be a big obstacle. I thought this would be interesting.
Challenge: If you two don't podium at your tournament Louis has to do the following podcast with BLUE lighting instead of his traditional red and Justin can't wear a hat.
😆 I love this. I will definitely do it. And now that you mention it, I'm changing my lighting. I went with red to try to be more like Louis since he looks so cool in his videos.
Loved the segment on explaining (or not) what makes a paddle soft. My Q: now that we’ve discussed what makes paddles stiff or soft, can we talk about handle diameter, or girth, if you will? I never had a “thicc boy” until gen 3 scorpeus but really disliked it. It was listed in specs as 4.25, but actually measured higher than that and was not comfortable. Is there a standard? Is there variance in production?
Q. Is "leverage" really a thing? I've heard some reviewers use that term to describe how a paddle with a longer handle will hit harder than a paddle with a shorter handle that is otherwise identical. For example, will the Mark One X hit more powerful drives than a Mark One? Thanks for the informative podcast.
Project developer, try not just adding to what is being manufactured by the 4 Chinese manufacturing companies and innovate, come up with something that lasts more than two months, something that is really fun to play with. Think outside the box!
@@Justin_MarkPB Start with a real core, graphene cells, a nanotac or like face and a real handle, 4 1/8” so one can customize it with a grip/overgrip or Hesacore of choice. Swing weight 110 or below, one can add tungsten tape to customize and a twist weight of 7.5 or more, total weight 7.7…..a standard/wide body. Made in the USA, employing US workers!
Ah interesting, I guess that’s their “NanoTac” technology. As a former competitive tennis and ping pong player, it seems like the best way to get additional spin without violating the surface material rules, is to create softer surfaces that increase dwell time and can cup/grab the ball on contact. I suppose Joola’s Gen 3 paddles are trying to achieve that via a foam suspended trampoline surface, but there’s definitely a lot to be desired in the spin department compared to the other racket/paddle sports. There’s another advantage to a more pliable surface too, which is the sharp sound issue that pickleball faces currently, which would be helped by a more absorbent surface.
The brand name SWICE blends the first two letters of "swift" and the last three letters of "slice," symbolizing agility and precision on the pickleball court.
I enjoyed the podcast. I really appreciate Justin’s and your honest reviews and information. I enjoyed the Q&A. Thank you. My wife just told me about UPA is planning to charge paddle manufacturers an outrageous amount of money for the professionals and amateurs to use in PPA and MLP tournaments. My questions to Justin and you are: 1) Is UPA trying to get rid of the smaller paddle manufacturers by not allowing their professionals and amateurs to use their paddles in PPA and MLP tournaments after their set timelines? 2) How this will affect the smaller paddle manufacturers? 3) Would you consider this as the PPA, MLP and UPA trying to create a monopoly for the professionals and amateurs to use only specific paddles in their tournaments?

Yes! Even the frequently used “pop” descriptor gets used in multiple ways to make it confusing.

The Swice Swift Pro paddle looks interesting. I returned my Joola Perseus Gen3 and would love to try this paddle.

How many paddles does the Aniviia fit with shoes, towels etc?
Wow! I'm so excited, watching the podcast and then so surprised to hear I won. 🤯
Congrats my dude! Check your email 👍

They threw your email in the spam folder lol. Got it sent backto you. 🤙🏼
You guys make an entertaining pickleball podcast. Thanks for all the hard work!
New paddle company that has a paddle worth looking at: Scoop Pickleball- Chopper

@@PickleballPursuit Diabolical would have been pushing for green lighting. It’s better to be a Smurf than a zombie.

Why don't companies do core out of strings in a tensegrity fashion? Essentially sewn inside. Would reduce weight by a lot, and no core issues.
Was just starting to research new bags so great timing ! And did not want to spend $250 - $300 so thanks !
Which one you ended up buying?
Surface materials: Do the Protons sound "soft"? I actually like the sound of the Joola's Gen 3's. Is it similar? Do you think sound matters?
Have you tried the Six Zero bag? Similar price to Maverix so curious how the size and quality compares. Top 5 bags under $150 video would be cool.
Lol made me watch for 46 minutes to hear about the shogun
They have time stamped links for the topics 😂😂😂

The ADV bag pre-order actually got delayed to August.
Its time to come up with a nerdtown sound effect
15:50 who makes paddles that feel like synthetic rubber? 🤔

29:22 Good to know the new small lesser known pickleball company. Btw, what's the brand name Swice all about?
Sweet and nice

Step 1: Achieve internet fame ✅. Now onto to Step 2: Monetization.
Failed the under hour ahaha
One thing we can guarantee is we will disappoint

How about we just replace it with strings?😂
Wooo Wooo, All aboard to Nerd Town... You shave I un-subscribed (lol) just kidding Love you Coach Beard never change.
