The Pursuit Pro1: Power Within the Rules

The pickleball paddle market is buzzing with controversy, with many paddles being deemed illegal or on the verge of it. The Pursuit Pro1 is the game-changing exception. It hits both USAP and UPA-A maximum power limits (setting the standard) and remains legal over time, even after extended play.

The USAP is the official paddle certification governance, and the UPA-A is the certification standard for play in PPA and MLP pro tour events. The Pursuit Pro1 has been tested and confirmed by both to meet all required standards, hitting the top power limits allowed when new and after extended use, providing confidence to players at all levels that it won't be listed as illegal in the near future.

Thanks to the Pro1 technology, these paddles don’t break down and delaminate like many of the new overseas-made paddles, which risk creating a trampoline effect and becoming illegal under the new guidelines. This ensures the Pursuit Pro1 remains compliant even after the anticipated July 1 enforcement date for stricter paddle standards while hitting the outer power limits.

This isn’t just a paddle—it’s peace of mind. Whether you’re a recreational player or competing at the pro level, the Pursuit Pro1 delivers top-tier performance while guaranteeing long-term reliability and compliance. Crafted to stay at the forefront of pickleball innovation, it’s a paddle designed for players who demand the best and refuse to compromise.

Experience the New Grip on the Pursuit Pro1

If you tried the Pursuit Pro1 before, you may not have experienced the new ergonomic grip introduced toward the end of last year. This updated grip, inspired by an octagonal tennis grip style, enhances control and comfort, reducing hand fatigue during long matches. The updated models feature a 4 1/4" handle circumference, which is available in both the 1/2-inch core and the thicker 6.0 core versions.

Ask your dealer for the new Pursuit Pro1 with the updated grip to experience the full benefits of these enhancements. Ensure you're playing with the latest and most advanced version of the Pursuit Pro1 for optimal performance.
