What kind of material should I use to make this pickle-ball paddle?

Posted on January 25, 2010 by admin

I am aware of wood, graphite, fiberglass, and composite materials being good materials for paddles, but are there any chemists out there who know of another somewhat cheap, durable, light substance? Thanks!

Kevlar is excellent for high strength and light weight.

    What would a pickle-ball paddle be?

    pickle – bought from a supermarket in a jar (usually brown)

    ball …ask John McEnroe

    paddle used with a canoe

    Until you Americans get the handle on how to use English….
