REV Aria Pickleball Paddle, Raw T700 Carbon Fiber Face, Polypropylene Honeycomb Core, 8oz

Because I bought it on sale and it was an excellent price. I thought for sure it was going to be used and I'd have to send it back but it wasn't.

Nice long paddle for extra reach, and great grip that is comfortable and ribbed for better grip when you perspire.

I've purchased this exact product before from Walmart.com. I like the feel of this paddle. Mine got stolen, so I was very happy I could get another one from Walmart. I even recommended for my wife to get this paddle. . Therefore, I purchased 2 of them this time from Walmart.com. Thank you.

I really am enjoying pickleball with this Rev paddle! It has a great sweet spot and is light weight. I feel like my placement of shots is better. I love the black and white design. I think it is an awesome paddle for under $100. I owned 3 different paddles. This is by far my favorite. Buy it!

First off, this paddle comes in the nice packaging. It's nestled in foam . The paddle hold cover is nicely made and very protective, and it made me wonder Removing the paddle hand from the cover, I was immediately impressed with the feel in my hand. The grip feels good, and the paddle itself feels light yet controllable. Balance is perfect: not head-heavy or light. In the three categories of control, power and spin, this paddle leans towards power without sacrificing too much control or spin. I thought spin was actually quite good, way better than average. Likewise with control. I never felt a lack of control in any situation. I did hit a few more shots long than usual, but that could be because it was a windy day. It never felt so powerful that I couldn't control it. I really like the seamless edge guard. Unlike most other paddles, the edge of the guard doesn't protrude above the paddle face on both sides. It made me feel as though the ball could theoretically glide off the paddle face smoothly without hitting a guard edge. The surface feels nice and grippy, just how I like it. Spin is easily generated, and I won a number of points using both slice and topspin. The smile-shaped cutout at the bottom of the paddle is designed to increase power by reduce air resistance. The idea is that when you take a swing, air goes through the cutout. Other paddle manufacturers are using this same feature, so the feedback must be positive. I know I really liked it. Before using this paddle I honestly wondered if the cutout might cause the ball to bounce weirdly if it hit the cutout in an off-center shot, but during a couple of hours of play I didn't have the ball hit the cutout once. The sweet spot is nice and big, and hits feel soft without being mushy. By "soft" I mean that there's no jarring impact up the arm. There's still a satisfying pop sound when you make contact. And contributing to the size of the generous sweet spot are the paddle dimensions. To me this paddle is the ideal size: not too narrow, but also not too long.

This is a easy to use great feeling in my hand pickleball paddle. I have had a few and by far this is my favorite. When I hit the ball the reaction given from the paddle is more sound and sure. I believe this paddle the way it is constructed gives me more control when hitting the ball. The handle grip is soft but slip resistant. When my hands get sweaty from play the grip still stays comfortable and non-slick. This is definitely the paddle for me.

Me and my husband are playing pickleball since 2020 when covid hits badly everyone. We wanted something to keep us entertained at home. My husband started feeling tennis elbow pain after one year and I would say it was related to the heavy racket. I got him this and since last one month his elbow healed nicely and we are playing 3 times per week. Very light weight handle with really good grip for player. I will be ordering one for myself as well. Totally worth money spent on this.

I bought this for my grandpa, he loves playing pickleball and he really needed a new paddle. I had a friend recommend this one and he really loves it. its got a good grip and it's easy to swing. He has been really complimentary of this paddle and was very thankful for the gift.

I bought this for a very dear friend who loves playing pickle ball. She is teaching her grandson how to play and was excited to have his very own paddle. She was impressed with the quality and now wants to order another for herself. The pickle ball paddle was a wonderful gift for me to give to her. I asked her how she would rate this and she said it's a “10.”

I've only played with the paddle a few times so far, but have become very comfortable with the feel and weight of the paddle as well as the ability to spin. It's nice looking, made of quality material, and just the perfect size. I'll be getting another one of these for my husband as well.
