A pickleball paddle includes a paddle body and a handle connected to the paddle body. The paddle body has at least one hollow cylindrical space therein. An angle is formed between an axis of the hollow cylindrical space and front and back face-plates of the paddle body. The hollow cylindrical space has an axial length and a radial length. The axial length is greater than the radial length. At least one rolling member that can roll back and forth along an axial direction of the hollow cylindrical space is disposed in the hollow cylindrical space. The pickleball paddle can enhance an explosive force for hitting a ball.

A composite panel structure has opposing outer walls or surfaces and a core comprising a plurality of ribs extending between and connected to the outer walls and defining chambers which are filled with expanding foams, non-expanding foams, gases, or a combination thereof. The outer panel surfaces and internal chamber walls or ribs are made of woven or non-woven fibrous material impregnated with one or more resins. The panel structure may be used for making a variety of products including sports equipment such as sports paddles, surfboards, kite boards, skateboards, wakeboards, as well as construction panels for walls, ceilings or floors, display panels, panels for the vehicle industry, furniture, and other structures requiring high strength to weight properties.

A paddle, a paddle airflow and stabilization system, a paddle apparatus, and methods of use are presented. More specifically, and without limitation, the present disclosure relates to a pickleball paddle for use in playing pickleball. More specifically, and without limitation, the present disclosure relates to a paddle airflow and stabilization system and methods of increasing speed and stability of a paddle for enhanced capabilities.

A pickleball training system having a paddle, ball, and elastic cord. The paddle has a planar head hitting service and a handle extending from the head. The ball is a hollow sphere having a plurality of perforations in a surface of the sphere. The cord is an elastic member with a dowel connected to a first end of the cord. The dowel and first end of the cord are connected to the ball and a second end of the cord is connected to the paddle. The dowel and first end of the cord are connected to the ball by passing the dowel and first end of the cord through one of the perforations of the ball. The second end of the cord is connected to the paddle by passing the cord first through the through bore of the paddle head and then through the through bore in the handle.

A paddle scoreboard for platform tennis is provided. The paddle scoreboard is paddle shaped and adapted to engage and hang from the fence of the platform tennis court. The paddle scoreboard includes two paddle plates that sandwich two scoring discs and two set discs that are rotatably connected to and between the paddle plates. Four apertures are provided by the paddle plates so that one of a plurality of indicia for each of the four discs are viewable through each aperture. A peripheral portion of each disc protrudes beyond the perimeter of the paddle plates so that each disc is selectively spinnable for indicating the game and set score through the four apertures.

An apparatus for racket sports practice (such as tennis, pickle ball, padel, squash, racquet ball, table tennis and the like) is disclosed. The apparatus being comprised of a tubular frame, lightweight cloth, a swivel bounce board and unique side shields that prevent balls from straying. The curved area of the rebound sheet allows users to hit balls into the apparatus and have them returned at various speeds and angles. The apparatus being of such a size that, when broken down after practice, can be easily transported by a single person. An object of the invention is to provide an affordable means for racket sports enthusiasts to practice independently.

A pickleball paddle assembly a head having a front side, a back side and a perimeter edge. The perimeter edge includes a top edge, a bottom edge, a first lateral edge and a second lateral edge. A central portion of each of the front and back sides is planar. A handle is attached to and extends downwardly from the from the bottom edge of the head. A plurality of inserts is provided and the perimeter edge has a plurality of wells extending therein that are each configured to releasably receive and retain one of the inserts. Each insert of the plurality of inserts defines a weight such that a weight of the head is selectively altered by inserting one or more of the inserts into one or more of the wells.

A copper tape has an elongated copper foil element with a thickness between about 0.01 mm and about 0.2 mm and an adhesive backing. The backing has a strength between about 3.9 N/cm and about 10 N/cm. A method of adjusting aggregate weight and weight distribution of sporting equipment includes cutting a portion of the copper tape to a length and width that adds a predetermined weight and that fits within a region of the sporting equipment and adhering the copper tape to the sporting equipment.

Aspects of the present disclosure include a pickleball paddle that is formed using a plastic or composite molded material. A composite material is wrapped around a center and placed in a mold to form a paddle frame or arranged around a paddle frame. In some embodiments, additional composite material is wrapped at specific positions to tune the balance point and rebound characteristics of the finished paddle The mold is heated to cure the composite material within the mold cavity. Face shells are then added to complete the paddle.

A paddle racket, including: a frame body, including a frame wall and a handle connected with the frame wall, the frame wall defining a receiving space; a three-dimensional web core, disposed in the receiving space and circumferentially connected to the frame wall, including a plurality of channels disposed through the three-dimensional web core in a thickness direction of the three-dimensional web core; and two striking surface portions, disposed on two opposing sides of the three-dimensional web core and connected to the frame wall, each of the two striking surface portions including a plurality of through holes, the plurality of through holes corresponding to and being in communication with the plurality of channels.
