The Pursuit EX 6.0 Paddle from Engage Pickleball offers a pro-level combination of control and responsiveness. Its impressive performance stands the test of time thanks to a textured, omni-directional surface which is attributed to the graphite itself rather than a textured overlay material. This prevents the texture from wearing down and creates a consistent feel across the entire face. You will find it is easier to add spin to your cut shots, in addition to the surface "gripping" pickleballs for longer periods so you can carefully place your shots. The Pursuit EX 6.0 Pickleball Paddle features a core that is 0.6" thick, so it provides a higher degree of control and shock dampening than standard half-inch-thick paddles. The Pursuit EX 6.0 delivers a soft touch, but is still highly durable due to the Control Pro Black proprietary core material. The face is broad, at 8" across, and its handle is 5" long with a medium-to-large 4-3/8" circumference. The paddle comes in three weight ranges: lite at 7.5 - 7.9 oz, and standard weight at 8.0 - 8.4 oz. The grip is perforated and features a tacky feel so that you will feel confident in your grasp even during heated games. The Pursuit EX 6.0 Pickleball Paddle will keep you in top form throughout intense games, and has a precision-based, reliable design.
