Did you know the owner of Engage is a tennis expert?

Robert Elliott, a former Division I tennis player and instructor at one of Nick Bollettieri's renowned tennis satellite academies, has designed every paddle since the start of Engage. The Pursuit Pro1 is specially crafted with tennis players and non-tennis players in mind! Its elongated shape, extended handle for two-handed backhands, and familiar octagonal grip provide the perfect transition from tennis to pickleball. Combining power, spin, and control, this paddle is designed to elevate your game.

Why the Engage Pursuit Pro1 is Ideal for Tennis Players:

  • Elongated Shape: Its elongated shape, longer than standard paddles, provides a familiar feel and extended reach that tennis players appreciate.

  • Top of Weight Range: Available at the top of the weight range (along with lower weight ranges), ideal for players accustomed to heavier equipment for added stability and power.

  • Flex-Enhanced Design: The slightly longer handle allows the paddle to flex more, offering a feel on contact that tennis players are familiar with.

  • Tennis Butt Cap and Grip: The handle mirrors tennis grips perfectly, featuring an octagonal grip and a tennis-style butt cap, ensuring seamless comfort and familiarity for tennis players.

  • Extra-Long Grip for Two-Handed Backhands: The extended grip length provides ample room for players who utilize a two-handed backhand, a common technique among tennis players.

  • Maximum Power Certification: Meets the maximum power limits of both USAP and UPA-A pro tour certifications, aligning with tennis players' ability to manage power and adjust their swing for finesse in the soft game.

  • Enhanced Spin Potential: The raw carbon fiber surface grips the ball effectively, creating enhanced spin, which tennis players excel at utilizing for strategic gameplay.

  • Designed by a Tennis Expert: Developed by Engage’s owner, a former Division I tennis player who trained and taught at one of Nick Bollettieri’s tennis academies, ensuring a design rooted in tennis expertise.

  • Performance Versatility: Combines power, spin, and control, enabling tennis players to leverage their skills while excelling in pickleball's unique dynamics.

  • Made in the USA with Industry-Leading Support: As with all Engage paddles, the Pursuit Pro1 is proudly made in the USA and comes with a 30-day no-questions-asked test drive and a limited lifetime warranty, offering unmatched quality and peace of mind.

  • Protected Against Tariff, Shipping, or Production Concerns: Proudly made in the USA, ensuring you are safeguarded from international policy changes, tariffs, or global shipping and production delays with the new presidential administration, so you can always count on your favorite paddle.
