I like this new paddle and have had some good games with it in just the two weeks I've had it. It has a nice soft touch for your short game and can really deaden some hard fast shots coming your way. I have noticed some "dead spots" at times trying to hit a solid, deep return where it just doesn't feel all that powerful.

Overall, I recommend it as a great starter paddle for those getting into pickleball for the first time.

The Icon is a great paddle, we have bought 5 of them...

Terrific racket for my wife, light but versatile and easily controlled. And the price was right.

Love the longer handle. Paddle gives just enough power, but also control. Love it.

Such a great feeling paddle right out the box.

Great balance and feel. Love the surface for spin. Only drawback is delamination on the edges over time.

Plays great, power, touch, control.

I don't give my new Diadem Icon paddle a 5 star rating for this reason: it feels heavy, heavier than I was expecting, heavier than an 8.1 ounce paddle should feel in my opinion.

I love the power of my new paddle. I am still adapting to how to use the paddle at the kitchen, but I learning.

I'm an advanced player. The paddle has excellent control and very good power. I have many paddles, but this is my favorite. I've been playing with it for 8 months and the one issues I have with it is that the face is chipping.

good control and decent power

I have been playing with my Diadem Icon Pro for a few weeks. I am an intermediate player. The paddle has both power and control. I love it!

Very happy with the Icon Infinity. I was surprised at the great control I got with this paddle. Highly recommend.

Shots seem effortless with this paddle

Light weight, has great power and control! Definitely stepping up my game!

My new favorite paddle

Icon Infinity improves on an already great paddle in the Icon V2.

It comes with a ton of power and spin right out of the box. Has great touch and feel around the net.

A couple issues I had with V2 was with dinks and the serve. I felt you had to be very intentional with your dinks. Perhaps not as forgiving if your focus dipped. Same with the serve. If I lost focus it had a tendency to go low off the paddle into the net. Icon Infinity, at least for me, was an immediately noticeable improvement in those areas. You can just play your shots and focus on strategy while dinking without having to focus on the shot itself. On serve, the power and spin potential make it an offensive weapon instead of just a point starter.

Icon Infinity is a very sleek, powerful addition to the bag. I love that the edge guards can be easily replaced as well.

Diadem hits another home run!

The new icon and edge are two of my favorite paddles right now! Diadem keeps upping the game with great products! I love the Diadem team!

I love this paddle! It has a low swing weight and hits like a truck. I can send my serves like a laser guided missile. It has a lot of pop and sends my punch volleys back at mach speed.

I have recently been using my Infinity Icon Pro paddle and I am very pleasantly pleased with the additional power I can generate as well as the greatly improved spin I can achieve. There's no question the gritty surface of the paddle enables better spin. In my games this week, several players noticed it. As for the power, I have been able to smash certain shots right to the baseline where they have not been returned. The paddle is perfectly balanced and light enough for anyone to use. If you are looking for more spin, more power, or both this paddle will help you achieve your goals.

I've been using a control paddle and came here to upgrade to a power paddle (Icon Infinity Max) in teal. I love the new feature of dual foam core and double grip! I picked the "max" version of this for a wide body to enhance faster hands at the kitchen.

I have been playing with the WARRIOR and EDGE line for a couple of years. Loved them both. Had the V2, the 18K and the SP. Then I grabbed and ICON PRO. Holy smokes. The control and speed was perfect for me. LOVE LOVE LOVE it!

I'm a beginner so i don't have much to compare. It seems to be working fine for me.

I love my Icon Infinity Pro. My first one lost the grit on the outside within 3 or 4 months so I purchased another one just like it, that is how much I love the power, the control, the ability to spin, the weight, etc.

More power and spin than Icon V2. My favorite paddle of all time. Has taken my game to a new level.

Still trying to get used to it. I can’t hit the ball as hard as my old paddle. As of right now I’m really not that happy with it, but I’ll keep working with and hopefully it will come around

Best all around paddle I've ever had!

The icon pro has been amazing! It has been a great addition to the bag!

This paddle is very strong and rigid and can generate incredible amounts of spin on the ball however the feel isn’t good and the sweet spot is too small.

I did not like the paddle. I’m very sorry.

Love the paddle. Perfect weight, great power and control.

With no actual practice with my new Icon I played with it at a 4. 5 invitational ladder league and it exceeded my expectations, after a few games I was impressed with the level of control but with added power when needed.

Nice grip and length with tactile surface for spin. Enjoying consistency with paddle upgrade from intro at sale price.
