Quality and value
I've got a dozen or so "good" paddles ranging from $79 to $199 retail... Best value on the market in my opinion, and plays like a $200 Joola or Selkirk.

Paddle
I’ve played with my $250 Joola paddle for about a year and a half and really liked it but wanted to have a spare. Found your ad on Facebook and decided to take a chance for the price. Loved the paddle so far and everything about it matches up to my Joola

Power and Touch, felt great!
I’ve been playing with the Joola Hyperion Ben John’s pro series and this felt a little more powerful, but with more control than expected! Loved the handle...Really am pleased!!!

Very Impressed!
I've been using a high end Joola for about a year, and I love it! I purchased two Friday paddles and honestly like them as much as the Joola. It's great to have a more reasonably priced alternative!

Holy Cow
I've played with Selkirk, Diadem, and Joola, and I think Friday paddles are just a good as the top name brand models. I'm very happy with them.

I love my new pink Friday raw carbon paddle. I had just received the new Selkirk carbon paddle which costs $200 and was surprised on how well the Friday paddle performed when I compared the two. Not only does it perform well but I love the designs. Can’t wait to add to my collection as new designs are released.
Solid light weight paddle, with great design. I’m an advanced player and this paddle is just as good as my $200 paddle.
I am blown away by the value per dollar on these paddle. Customer service were quick to reply for a small company for a defect that I had. I honestly didn't think I would like them as much as I did. I have some cheap Helium Atmos Carbon Fiber from Amazon, the 14mm Vactic Prism Flash, and these. I did not expect to like this as much as the Prism which is highly regarded as the best sub 100 dollar paddle. The Prism has good spin and control but lacks any major power. The moment I got these Friday Paddles, I felt like my serves became 50% deadlier. Power is easy to generate and it makes for easy returns of hard drives. There's a pretty forgiving sweet spot. And best of all, even though it is very "artsy" it doesn't show dirt like the Vatic Prism (which I would have to use a carbon eraser after every session). You'd be hard-pressed to find a better paddle for the same price range.
We purchased two Friday pickleball paddles. They are excellent and rival any of the most expensive paddles we have tried. Love the extended handle and grit on the surface. Why spend $300 for a paddle when you can buy one a good one for under $100? We have 4.0 pickleball friends who use Friday paddles and feel the same as we do. We'll buy them again!
I live in a community that is very active in instruction for new players. I often help out and recommend your paddles to everyone. One lady, who has been playing since April, used you paddle for her 1st tournament and won Bronze. States she feels the paddle definitely made a difference in her game.
I also let the instructor of the class use my paddle and he loved it. So glad it is now approved.
GREATEST c/o is we now have 7 of your paddles in the gym with more to be ordered after this weekend. LOL
I bought a Selkirk awhile back and haven't used it once since getting my Friday Paddle(s).
My only request is you don't get "too big for your britches" and raise your prices.
Thanks for a super, affordable paddle!
Sincerely,
Madelynn Herbert, Chicago, IL
A VERY HAPPY customer.
