Average Ratings Based on 5 Customer Reviews
Beginner, but like this one BJD Intermediate
Pros: Forehands feel great, 3rd shot drops and dinking very nice. Great at the Kitchen
Cons: Backhand, not as consistent as I would like, but could be me as well. I like a little stiffer on the backhand than this paddle provides.
Great paddle Tran D. Intermediate
Pros: Great all around, balanced paddle. I would not consider this a power paddle but it is not soft like my Gearbox CX14 H either. Works well for my personal dinking game and has enough power to get me into trouble :-) I've used it heavily for the last month and the wear is minimal. A wet rag to clean off the ball particles once in a while does keeping looking pretty good.
Cons: None so far.
Sweet Paddle Randy Intermediate
Pros: So soft… really helped my short game… ball seems to stay on the surface a bit giving great control.
Cons: Paddle seems a little small? Handle is a little longer than I like but that could be my imagination!!!
Do not buy from CRBN Kenneth Brant Intermediate
Pros: High spin Good control it NVZ
Cons: Banned paddle Terrible Customer Service Company lies about its policies Staff is rude
Great Spin Joey Intermediate
Pros: This paddle plays very soft and has great spin just as advertised. I am extremely happy with the performance of this paddle. My only complaint with this paddle is that uses a cheap 2 piece handle. I am getting a lot of vibration through the handle causing some elbow pain. I would like to see a company that is on the cutting edge of pickleball paddles use an upgraded handle such as some other high end paddle companies.
Cons: none

About the Brand

And I, like many others, play far too much pickleball. I quickly found myself deeply involved in the sport, and as my skills progressed, I became increasingly unsatisfied by the selection of paddles on the market. After trying almost every brand of paddle, I couldn't seem to find the right combination of shape and material that felt right to me. So I decided to make my own. After some serious research, I discovered carbon fiber to be the ultimate material for faces and cores of pickleball paddles as it provides incredible stiffness, which translates into optimum power and control. From there I applied it to the shape that I felt worked best for my style, and thus, CRBN was born. This paddle completely changed my game, and I'm confident that it will do the same for others.
