Description

Engage Pursuit EX 6.0 Thick Core Middleweight Blemished Graphite Pickleball Paddle

The NEW Pursuit EX Graphite paddle (Reimagined Control, Power & Feel) is Engage's Flagship paddle and has been in development for a long time to ensure it will become one of the top-selling paddles in the sport. Will feature a cosmetic blemish that will NOT affect performance!

Paddle Benefits

The Pursuit EX is the first graphite paddle released by Engage and is available in two different core thicknesses. The graphite face is developed specifically for the paddle to work with their black core, which is developed to be the softest core on the market. The graphite face features a rough texture that is built to last since it is a part of the paddle face/skin and not an overlaying texture. The graphite face is designed to increase friction and allow the ball to stay on the paddle longer. The combination of the black core and the graphite face give this paddle unmatched control, spin, and feel.

This model features the 5/8" thick core design and middleweight design, which helps provide maximum control and feel. The EX model features a shorter 5" handle length compared to the 5 3/4" handle on the MX model.

Warranty

Engage is generous enough to offer a Limited Lifetime Manufacturer's warranty on this pickleball paddle. This warranty is for workmanship and manufacturer defects. If you get this paddle and experience any structural or performance trouble on it within a year from the purchase date, be sure and let the Paddle Experts at JustPaddles know your experience. The Paddle Experts are trained in product knowledge and will be happy to get you the information for starting a warranty claim with Engage.

Great Upgrade Matt H Intermediate

Pros: I have been using the Ben johns and I didn’t like the elongated shape or durability. I could instantly tell a difference in sweet spot and touch.

Cons: I have heard of issues with durability but haven’t had a probably yet.

So far so good! Tristan Intermediate

Pros: I've only been playing for about 6 months and this is only my second paddle. My first one was a cheap whatever brand. I did a lot of research and settled on this one. I really like it so far. There is no doubt it has improved my game. Especially with control both with the soft and power hits. Even all the guys I play with have commented on the improvement of my game and I think it was pretty good even with the cheap paddle. I play 2-3 times a week and consider myself to be an upper intermediate player.

Cons: None yet.

Great paddle Intermediate

Pros: I’ve tried a few other paddles but this one is the best I’ve owned. I get power with control. It has a great sweet spot and my dunking game has been improving. Not where I’d like to be test, but this paddle is helping

Cons: None. Took me a few days before I discovered the blemish. Hardly visible and has no affect on the paddles performance.

Engage Pursuit Steve Bernard Intermediate

Pros: Great pop for the weight, light enough for net play. The blemish is not noticeable - I am guessing that the print on one side of the paddle is slightly lighter, but no affect on play or cosmetics. Great value on this paddle and incredibly quick shipping. Super service from the experts at JustPaddles.

Cons: No cons
