Frequently asked questions

Is there a Six Zero discount code?
Yes. Use code MPB for 10% off at checkout on any Six Zero paddle.
Should I buy the Ruby or the Double Black Diamond?
The Double Black Diamond if you want a heavier, more stable control paddle with mass behind the ball. The Ruby if you want a Kevlar face that grips harder for spin and softer touch shots, with more off-center forgiveness. They're close in price, so it comes down to whether you value stability or grip. My recommendation? Not these. Go, Coral, if your budget permits.
Which Six Zero paddle has the most spin?
The Coral Pro, in all three shapes . It measures 2481 to 2485 RPM, which is elite and the highest spin Six Zero makes. The grit is still holding at 40 hours of play.
Is the Six Zero Coral Pro USA Pickleball approved?
No. The Coral Pro is approved by UPA-A, not USAP. If you play in USAP-sanctioned tournaments, it isn't legal there, so confirm your event's sanctioning body before buying. The standard Coral is USAP-approved.
Which Six Zero is best for control?
For touch and resets, the standard Coral or the Ruby. The Coral is the foam-core soft game with fast hands. The Ruby has a Kevlar face with strong grip and stays stable on off-center shots.
Should I get the Coral or the Ruby Pro?
The Coral if you want a foam core, softer dwell, easier placement, and the highest spin Six Zero makes. The Ruby Pro if you want a honeycomb core with a crisper, more direct feel and quicker ball exit on drives. Same DiamondGrit surface on both, so the real choice is core feel, not durability.
Which paddle on this list has the highest measured spin RPM?
Six Zero Pickleball Coral Pro Widebody 16mm — 2485 rpm, camera-measured on the same protocol as every other paddle I test.
Which paddle on this list has the fastest measured serve speed?
Six Zero Pickleball Black Opal 14mm — 61.4 mph, radar-gun tested.
What is the cheapest paddle on this list?
Six Zero Pickleball Coral Hybrid 16mm at $200.
