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 Ronbus R1 PULSAR is a 16mm pickleball paddle built on a unibody thermoformed core with a raw Toray T700 carbon fiber face. It suits players who want a textured, high-spin face with a larger sweet spot than most compact paddles offer. Its main difference is the edge-weighted design, which spreads the sweet spot wider for more forgiving contact.

Key Features

Unibody thermoformed construction – a more consistent, durable frame that helps protect the core
Raw Toray T700 carbon fiber face – a rough, textured surface that helps you generate more spin
Edge-weighted design – a wider sweet spot for better control on fast and off-center shots
Polypropylene honeycomb core – a lightweight, responsive feel through the middle of the paddle

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.
