Powerful Pickleball Paddles 2025: Players looking to hit big serves and strong third-shot drives now have new pickleball paddle options. Companies like Adidas, JOOLA, Paddletek, Proton, and Gearbox released models in 2025 designed for maximum power and court dominance.
Top Paddles for Maximum Power
Players who love aggressive shots at the kitchen line or powerful overheads can now choose from top new paddles. The Adidas Metalbone LP S is built for players who want big power. It features a customizable weighting system for even more force on shots.
The Adidas Metalbone LP Team has the same EVA foam core but is lighter at 8.0 ounces. It allows quicker reflex volleys and better maneuverability. Pro Mari Humberg favors this paddle.
New Technology Boosts Paddle Performance
The JOOLA Perseus Pro IV 16mm introduces new “Tech Flex Power” (TFP) technology. This design uses high-density foam to add flex, forgiveness, and feel. Players at pro and amateur levels have already seen great results.
Designed with top men’s pro Christian Alshon, the Paddletek Bantam TKO-C 12.7mm offers max power from the baseline and great spin for tricky third-shot drives.
The JOOLA Agassi Pro uses the same TFP technology. It is shaped to shift the sweet spot toward the top 20% of the paddle. This shape helps players who want strong groundstrokes and overheads. A 5.5-inch handle allows for easy two-handed backhands.
More Options for Aggressive Play
The Proton Series Three – Project Flamingo brings a new “Velocity Core” that boosts power and spin. Released in January 2025, it is already used by pros on the PPA Tour.
Finally, the Gearbox Pro Ultimate Power Elongated comes after USA Pickleball moved to “sunset” the original Pro Power Elongated. This version has slightly less power but still ranks near the top for aggressive players.
What This Means for Players
The launch of these powerful paddles is set to make pickleball more exciting. Players can hit harder, react faster, and take over games with new tools. As more pros and amateurs pick up these paddles, expect faster, more thrilling matches on courts everywhere.
