Inspired by shelby and sandy's People in Paris exhibition, the People of Pickleball paddle brings that same colorful, character-driven storytelling to the court. Pickleball is more than a game. It's a community filled with personality, and this design celebrates the players who make it special.
Built on our Rush paddle, each side showcases a vibrant cast of characters, from the stat-tracking "NASA engineer" to the fashion-forward player whose style turns more heads than their serve. You'll even spot a familiar face: Coach Gene from the Diadem Pickleball Complex, spreading the love of the game with his signature patience and positivity. Flip the paddle and you'll find the backs of every character, making it feel like a living, breathing scene of court life.
Shelby & Sandy's signature style blends pop culture and nostalgia, while their hand-drawn Diadem logo and paddle name add a personal, artistic touch.
The creativity extends beyond the paddle. It comes with a custom cover featuring 3D accessories that match each character (a parrot for the pirate, paint for the artist, and more), plus a sticker pack to share the fun off the court.
But don't let the art fool you. This 7.9 oz fiberglass-faced paddle is built for performance. With a grippy texture and a 5.4" handle for smooth control, it's a conversation starter that plays just as good as it looks.
