I started playing pickleball with friends here in Carmel Racquet Club starting in Jan 2025. We play 2-3 times a week. Most often we have 4 people, with 3 being the most second most. We tend to get late evening slots - 8pm or 9pm with Sundays being light and we manage to snag the occassional 6pm slot.
The gear:
- Gonex paddles
- Onix Recruit indoor balls
- K-Swiss Men’s Express Light pickleball shoes. While buying this I used the shoe measurement app from Tyr. I ended up getting a 10.5 over my past 10 size. These are much more comfortable
Both the ball, and shoe debuted today (Mar 13, 2025). Ball was an upgrade over the ones that shipped with the Gonex paddle. Shoes are definitely more comfortable over the smaller sized shoes I was wearing. Still have feet ache that started last week, that I need to figure out.
Purchased the Writing for Developers book.
