Fantastic paddle for the price
Great customer service
Super quick delivery
I am new to Holbrook Pickleball and I have heard many good things about the company. I found out my Medicare insurance will pay for a paddle so I ordered one. I loved that it came so quickly. I emailed customer service to get a receipt that had all the details I needed to be reimbursed. I was happily surprised when they responded so quickly and had everything I needed. This is a great company,
One of the best pickle paddles, I’ve used lightweight and great quality
The paddle is easy to control from all over court but wish I would have gone with the 12mm or 14mm to give a little more punch from the baseline or at the net.
There was a nail or staple at the lower part of the handle that created some discomfort under the tape which I was able to tap down. Lastly, the grip is a little slippery and had to put on a python glove.
I am on my second Power Pro E (16mm) and this paddle is a game changer. The combination of power, spin, and control is why I have purchased multiple Holbrook paddles and is also why I have had several family members, friends, and PB associates also switch to Holbrook. Great paddles…better customer service.
Been about 3 months I started using the paddle, seem to have some dead spots now and the overgrip worn out badly already started tearing off..
I’ve recently purchased the Holbrook 12mm Pro line Paddle. Being new to the sport, I wanted a pathway to becoming competitive and I’ve already seen the change. I probably should have got the 14mm or even 16mm for my start, but I’m learning how much “pop” the 12mm carries. I’m convinced I made a solid purchase with a solid company. The look of the paddle is amazing as much as the reaction is. So I am excited for my game!!
I tried several brands of paddles and settled on Holbrook when I tried a friends. I am very happy with my new Holbrook. Even better was getting it at half price.
Great paddle, lightweight with excellent spin control. Definitely recommend this paddle to anyone looking to up their game.
Received the podium bag. Liked it a lot but didn’t “love” it. Why?
- on the website, it looks like a clean white and black bag. Once I received it, it was a light to moderate grey. I wished it would have been white like it appeared on the website.
- it has more than enough pockets. I hope they add a “cooler” pocket for cold drinks in the future as they have plenty of space to make it happen.
- It is one of the only pickleball bags not to have hooks/clamps to hang on a fence.
The bag looks well constructed. I hope they make some changes as seen above. If so, I would repurchase.
I’m new to pickle ball and was using rentals at the place I was playing. This paddle is like a whole different world compared what I was using. The quality of the handle is really what sold me upon arrival but the design and paddle are just perfection too. Definitely buying more for my parents as birthday gifts this year.
I've played with a lot of paddles. Loved the Selkirk 006 but it was a little to poppy causing me to hit a lot of return of serves out so I went to the Luxx. The Luxx was nice but I didn't feel like it had the power I needed when I needed it. A buddy told me to try the Holbrook because he felt it was right in between. I tried it and immediately loved it. It had the power I needed when I needed it but not so much that I wasn't comfortable with return of Serves. It's just a perfect mix of power and control. I've left Selkirk and now advocate for Holbrook.
Love this paddle! The control and spin are awesome and the power is just right. I went from the CRBN x3 to this and I’m super happy with the results! (I play as a 4.0)
The texture is perfect. I played with the SoHo for a while and upgraded to the Mav Pro E and could not be more satisfied. The thickness gives me just a bit more control as well. The paddle seems a touch more forgiving too than the SoHo but both are great paddles. My wife uses my SoHo now and has fallen in love with the look of it. Sometimes she’s too busy admiring it that she forgets to play, but we will work on that. Totally satisfied!
I bought the Mav Pro for my daughter in law and she instantly loved it, brought her old paddle just in case but never looked back! Loved the longer handle for a two handed backhand! Our families new obsession, the Holbrook paddles, we are 8 for 8 now! Highly recommend!
I am 4.5 player and found that the Power Pro 16 gives me good power and pop as well as better control than the several other paddles I tested, including the 6.0 DBD, PB Apes Energy S, and Engage Pursuit Pro MX 6.0. My teaching pro said my control is much better with the Holbrook and the guys I play with have commented on my improved play. I love the feel and balance of the paddle. No regrets at all with the purchase of 2 of these paddles.
Great paddle, hits the ball perfectly. You can tell Holbrook takes pride in their work! Love the honeycomb, changes the game. Would love to sell some of these to friends!
I was really excited for this hat as I loved the play better emblem on the strap, unfortunately it will only fit a small child. It would not even fit my wife. It is an absolute joke and a rip off for $30. If you have anything close to a normal size head runaway. The coolest thing is the play better emblem but you will never see it anyway as shown in the picture. Need to find a way to return.
I just received the podium bag and I was very excited. Having taken it out I concerned about durability. For a bag over $120 and regularly priced at $150, I would not expected the fraying inside the bag. If it is already fraying what’s going to happen…. Also for that price I would expect a clip to hang it as an option.
I do like the storage space and paddle space.
I took a chance on this paddle based on how responsive the company was with their customer service and help. They promised me I would love the paddle and they absolutely delivered with this product! The Power Pro is fantastic. I am able to drop shots I never could before with the control of the 14 mm. It has good power to help with my drives. On top of all of that, I love the look of the paddle. Highly recommend this company and the Power Pro!
Ok so I have gone through numerous PB bags looking for the perfect one. Still have not found it, but the Holbrook Podium PB comes really close and I love it! I have had the Joola tour, CRBN (backpack & tour), Selkirk, and a few others. This bag has a nice spot for everything and is super stylish. I miss not having a thermal lined pocket for the paddles, but not a deal breaker for me. Few other things I might tweak a little, but overall it is a great bag! Not too big and not too small. :)
I just received this Power Pro E paddle and used it for the 1st time yesterday - it exceeded my expectations. The sweet spot was larger than I expected; the control over my shots (either dink or power) was better than previous paddles. I'm guessing this won't be my last Holbrook paddle!
This is an excellent all around paddle. As a taller player with larger hands, I appreciate the grip size and feel. It has a very nice combination of power and control. It is on the lighter side which I prefer. It compares positively to several paddles I tried out that are at least 2x the cost.
