A pickleball paddle that is too heavy for you can lead to poor play (too slow to get it in position) and potential arm pain (more weight = more stress to your arm). While the weight of your paddle is important (scale weight), the weight of your paddle as it swings is actually more important (swing weight).
In this video we share with you how to calculate your paddle's balance. Just how head-heavy is your pickleball paddle?
