The Classic Composite Pickleball Paddle was designed by Pro-Lite Sports to resemble a tennis racquet. The long handle is preferred by former tennis players, and the oblong face of the paddle adds to the racquet-like appearance as well. Traditional Nomex honeycomb can be found in the core of this paddle, and the smooth fiberglass face gives the paddle lots of pop.

The Composite Classic paddle can be classified as a middleweight paddle due to its weight range of 7.1 to 8.1 ounces. The face offers players a good amount of hitting surface, measuring 7-7/8” across. The 5-1/4” long handle on the paddle is one of the most extended handles on the market. Similar to a tennis racquet, the 4” grip can be built up with a wrap or an overgrip if it is too small. The overall length of this paddle is 15-3/4”, one of the longest made.

The design of the Classic Composite paddle is subdued and well thought out. The background on the face is a solid color, and is topped with a black pickleball with a bolt of lightning slashing through it.

Available in the following colors: blue, green, purple, red, yellow and orange.
