As the newest paddle in the famous Icon line, the Diadem Icon Infinity V3 Pro Pickleball Paddle serves as a worthy addition to Diadems offerings. At 16.54-inches long, this paddle is essentially the next generation of the XL Icon V2. Like that paddle, this paddle offers a long 5.5” handle that lets you wield the gritty coated carbon fiber hitting surface with both hands. New to this generation is the Double Grit coating that stretches across the 7.22-inch carbon fiber face between the replaceable edge guards. This texture provides long lasting grit that grabs the ball as it lingers on the rigid face, allowing us to add spin to any and all of our shots.
Sure, the Diadem Icon Infinity V3 Pro Pickleball Paddle does share some ideas from former generations, but that all stops when it comes to the core. This reinvented core calls on an open honeycomb section with both EVA and high-density foams surrounding it to create a 13.7mm overall thickness. These three materials work together to provide a soft feel through vibration damping, an expanded sweet spot through perimeter weighting, and plenty of pop thanks to plow through ability, precise weight control, and plenty of rebound behind the ball. This extended length paddle will thrive in the hands of powerful players who may or may not have a tennis background.
Actual grip sizes may vary up to 1/8"
