Kinetic Pro and Ovation Flight Pickleball Paddles by Prokennex

The Kinetic Flight series paddles are highly rated high end pickleball paddles.  They claim to be the most advanced paddle on the market and they certainly have some nice features.  Keep reading to see what technology they are using.  Some of features I like most about these Prokennex Pickleball paddles is how thin they are, the replaceable edge guard and the diamond frost surface.  As a player that uses spin a lot the control from the textured surface is important. For more on what components make up a paddle check out our Pickleball Equipment Page

Kinetic Technology Explained

The Prokennex Kinetic technology uses micro-bearings and Newtonian physics to take the ball energy (shock, torque and vibration) and absorb it into the Kinetic chambers. 
 
After impact, a shock wave is released into the paddle from the ball and is immediately absorbed into the kinetic chambers in the paddle virtually eliminating vibration to the arm. 
 
This energy transfer shields the player from harmful impact forces making for enhanced touch, feel, and kitchen play.
