Here’s my (newest) “369” pickleball racket idea which is constructed with a “plastic removable, perforated, and textured sheet”. It sticks to the surface with “a special tack” and stays there! The racket works very well, is more Powerful, is Light and super Silent!
It’s almost Unfair to play with this racket! “…so says a Pickleball-Player” who has had the privilege of testing this new Racket.
*What makes my new racket quiet are in fact the holes. Combined with the overlaid sheet this racket is so silent that when you hit the ball your opponent just sees it coming(but doesn’t hear it)! Compare it to the “Silencer-Effect” of a handgun. Muffled. Your opponent’s reaction is slower because he/she/it doesn’t “hear” the ball coming. This is how the sport will evolve or change. It could become an “all-court” sport. The hearing impaired would be great at it!
