Storage
Keep your paddle in a dry, temperature-controlled place, ideally indoors. Avoid leaving it in a vehicle, since extreme heat and cold will damage it over time.

Paddle face and edge guard cleaning
Wipe down your paddle after every session. Clean the edge guard with a damp cloth. For the paddle face, use a paddle eraser for quick spot cleaning, or a slightly damp cloth for a more thorough wipe.

The graphics on your paddle will fade a little over time. Don’t worry, that just means you’re out there putting in the work.

Grip care
Wipe your grip after every session. Sweat, grit, and oils from your hands build up, and regular cleaning helps the grip last longer. You can also add an overgrip of your choice. There are many options, and an overgrip protects the original factory grip.

Description

The Amakirk TX Tour 1 16mm is a tournament-grade pickleball paddle built around a 3K carbon fiber face and a polypropylene honeycomb core. It suits competitive players who want a firm, controlled feel and strong spin with a crisp touch on every shot. Its key difference is the 3K carbon surface, which we chose for grip, spin and durability over traditional T700 raw carbon.

Key Features

3K carbon fiber face – more grip and spin than traditional T700, with strong durability
16mm polypropylene honeycomb core – a softer feel and better ball control on spin and dinks
16.5″ length – added reach and pace for powerful shots from the back of the court
Reinforced polypropylene frame – reduces vibration and widens the sweet spot for stable rallies

F.A.Q

Most of our paddles are USA Pickleball approved for sanctioned play. The approval status is listed in the product description above. Playing in a tournament? Double-check the official USA Pickleball approved equipment list, or email us at support@pickleplayglobal.com and we'll confirm for you.

Thicker paddles (16mm) feel softer and give you more control, great for dinks, resets and the soft game. Thinner paddles (13-14mm) are faster with more pop, great for drives and hand battles. Not sure? Most players start with 16mm.
