Summary

The Engage Pickleball Pursuit Pro1 Lite is an elongated paddle with a 13mm polypropylene honeycomb core and a carbon fiber face. This combination may offer a blend of power and control. The paddle weighs 7.7 oz and has a 5.875-inch grip length, potentially benefiting players who use a two-handed backhand. Its swing weight of 110 is on the lower end of the medium range, suggesting maneuverability. The spin rating is 7.8 out of 10, placing it in the 75th percentile for spin generation. Drive and volley speed ratings are 7.3 and 6.9 respectively, falling into the 69th and 73rd percentiles. The twist weight rating is 3.3 out of 10 (14th percentile), which may indicate slightly less resistance to twisting on off-center hits. This paddle could be suitable for intermediate to advanced players seeking a balance of power, control, and spin. The lighter weight may appeal to players prioritizing quick reactions.
