  • Like every other racquet & paddle sport on earth besides pickleball, Arete features a aerodynamic design which gives you significantly more speed to:
    • Attack when you would normally just block
    • Swing faster for more spin on drives & volleys
    • Stay one step ahead in hands battles
  • What makes Arete so special is that almost no paddles exist where you have both speed & control like Arete does thanks to the aerodynamic shape & 16mm core. Usually fast paddles are thin paddles which lack control & have too much power to control.
  • Arete has solid power & excellent spin (over 2,000 rounds per minute) which combined with it's unique features make it one of the most unbelievably great values in pickleball especially for those with tennis & table tennis experience.
  • Adding at least one lead weight to each side at 3 & 9 o'clock is recommended for enhanced stability.

A Tennis Players Dream no

As an avid and high-level tennis player, this 6 inch grip and teardrop design is the racket that I have chosen among over a dozen that I have tried. Just won the 65 and over Rhode Island championships with this beast and any tennis player that is trying to use their tennis strokes. This is the racket for you.

Arete

Love my new paddle. Lots of power and enjoy getting my double hand backhand as strong as my forehand! Perfect paddle if you have a tennis background!

Great paddle

I love the head shape and long handle. Being new to the sport and having a tennis background this paddle has made pickleball feel more familiar. Highly recommended.

Is a good paddle but needs improvement

At first glance, it looks different but once you start hitting with it , it feels powerful with control. I personally dont care for the look but the feel is nice and controlled. Maybe if they make the dace a but larger it would allow for more spin.

The best paddle!

I have been playing pickleball now for about a year and it has quickly became an obsession. When starting out I used every paddle you can think of major names and not so big brands and all price points 100 - 275 dollars. I found this paddle here and not only did my game improve but I was able to learn new shots from this 6inch handle. I may or may not own 5 ethos paddles currently. This paddles deserves 6 stars for power, touch, spin, dinks, length, and design.
Not only is this paddle amazing the owner is very responsive and actually cares about the game not the wealth. He deserves 5 stars as well.
