(Plus, Meet the JOJOLEMON Paddle That Plays by the Rules!)
Pickleball’s explosive growth has led to a surge in paddle innovation, but not all designs meet official standards. The USA Pickleball Association (USAPA) maintains strict rules to ensure fair play, safety, and consistency. Banned paddles often violate regulations around materials, surface texture, noise levels, or dimensions. Let’s break down why some paddles get blacklisted—and introduce a paddle that delivers elite performance without breaking the rules: the JOJOLEMON Carbon Fiber Pickleball Paddle.
Why Are Pickleball Paddles Banned?
Illegal Surface Texture: Overly abrasive surfaces (exceeding 40 grit) can create excessive spin, disrupting game balance.
Non-Compliant Core Materials: Paddles with unauthorized cores (e.g., metal inserts) can affect ball rebound and durability.
Excessive Noise: Loud paddles disrupt play in noise-sensitive areas like community courts.
Prohibited Dimensions: Paddles exceeding 17” in length or 24” in total width/height are illegal.
PBCoR Violations: The "Pickleball Coefficient of Restitution" (PBCoR) measures how much energy the paddle transfers to the ball. Exceeding the threshold creates unfair power advantages.
List of Decertified Paddles
The following paddles have been removed from USA Pickleball's approved list, effective July 1, 2025:
JOOLA: Perseus 14mm Mod TA-15
JOOLA: Perseus 16mm Mod TA-15
Gearbox: Pro Power Elongated
ProKennex: Black Ace Ovation
ProKennex: Black Ace Pro
ProKennex: Black Ace LG
ProKennex: Black Ace XF
These models were found to exceed the acceptable PBCoR threshold, resulting in their decertification.
Recent banned paddles include the Electrum Model E (texture violations) and the ProLite SuperNova (core issues). Always check the USAPA’s approved list before purchasing!
