Another Illegal Paddle!

 I've been playing the Diadem Vice for a month or so.  I like its quietness and the touch and soft game attributes.  

There is another paddle out there, Ronbus EVA1, that is made of EVA foam and is also not approved for sanctioned tournament play.  I guess the big word there is sanctioned.  If you're interested in these paddles, and they have a lot to recommend them, it's a question of your playing in sanctioned tournaments.  I don't know if the usual tournaments are sanctioned or not.  So caveat emptor.  But you'll feel good with every hit that you're helping with the pickleball noise problem.  :-)

Here is the review of the Ronbus paddle with this construction: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbG9knEh1Kc

If you want to try mine, catch me at the courts.  The price of the Vice in the video was $220 or so, it can be had for less than $200.  Get in touch if you want to know how.
