Diadem Edge 18K Pickleball Paddle
Overview
Under wraps until 8-16-23, Diadem pushes the envelope of paddle advancement by unleashing the Edge 18K. Featuring a Triaxial Carbon Fiber surface, consisting of 3 yarns interwoven into a 60-degree angle, which translates to incredible spin potential and comfort that will stand the test of play, and time. Building on the all-court utility of prior Edge models, Diadem sticks with a manageable weight of around 8 oz., and elongated 16.4 in. overall length, for a balance of weight, and length based power. The 16mm. Polypropylene Honeycomb Core provides a predictable, and obedient return of energy, whether you are generating shot pace from the baseline, or absorbing it near the kitchen. Paired with a 5 in. handle along with a 4.25 in. grip the Diadem Edge 18K is a high-quality paddle tuned to deliver 24K performance.
