Mypickleball's note: Paddle used by a senior female player who only played indoors. The paddle is a COSMETIC paddle sold by Engage as having a cosmetic blemish that does not affect play. It is the lightest weight available in this model so a really good buy if you are after lightweight.
Crafted with precision and innovation, the new Pursuit Pro Raw Toray T700 Carbon fibre Line of Paddles boast a revolutionary design unlike any other raw T700 paddles on the market.
Engage’s Pursuit Pro Paddles incorporate engineered layers, featuring an outer Raw T700 skin combined with inner, next generation application layers. Through a meticulous bonding process, the engineered layers adhere to Engage’s proprietary Control Pro ‘Black’ polymer core, directly enhancing the interaction (and influence) on the ball. This results in the surface and core ‘acting as one,’ holding the ball even longer (with a consistent compression and release) to enable the ultimate experience and playability. The dynamic fusion of these cutting-edge materials empowers players with unmatched control, increased spin capabilities, the right amount of power and a gentler impact (for heightened ball feel and precision), taking your game to new heights.
The EX Shape is a standard, square paddle shape.
