I have demo 5 top brand racquets and thoughts this on was the best. I can hit the 3rd shop drop in my sleep. It does have power but I am a slice and dice type of player and this raquet gives me incredible spin. My more winning results speaks volumes. I also like thin paddles like this one. I would give it a A.
Surprise!
My husband’s birthday was coming up and I happened to see that his computer was open to Pickleball Central on the Diadem Icon. I called and spoke to customer service representative who asked me some questions and let me know this racquet would be a good choice. When the birthday arrived, my husband was quite surprised. He didn’t remember ever looking at this racquet. He tried it out and loved it. Thanks Pickleball Central for the guidance and the great 30 day return option as a fail safe option. I couldn’t have bought a better gift.
The Real Deal
The Diadem Icon is the real deal. I have been using it for about a month. It is everything Diadem says it is. It has the pop of a power paddle like my Gearbox Joey, but it has a soft feel for a firm paddle. dinks, 3rd shot drops and resets are very easy to execute. I feel I have very good control with this paddle, and it has a lot of pace on the ball. I like that the ball stays low when you hit it. It doesn't just rebound off of your paddle hi and get slammed back at you. I won my first gold medal this past weekend with the Icon. I am totally sold on this paddle. I couldn't be happier with my purchase. I've read some complaints about the face turning a bit yellow from the balls but I've only seen a small amount of this and I play a lot of Pickleball and hit the ball hard. I would rate this paddle just above average for spin. But you can put enough on it. Hats off to Diadem for getting into the market and releasing a unique paddle like this. 5 stars for playability. Give it a try!!!
