All-Round Pickleball Paddles

For players seeking a balance between power and control, all-round paddles offer versatility across various playing styles.

Key Features:

• Overall Length: Generally 15.6-16.3 inches Medium (396-414 mm)
• Handle Length: Is the Standard 4.6-5.2 inches Medium (117-134 mm)
• Thickness: Medium core thickness, provides a blend of power and touch.

Contradiction: Some “all-round” paddles use 13–14 mm cores (normally power specs).
Reason: Mid-weight builds (~7.6–8.0 oz/215-226g) and standard shapes (≈16″ × 7.8″) balance out the extra pop, making them versatile.

Contradiction: Entry-level fiberglass paddles with 16 mm cores are still marketed as all-round.
Reason: They lean control, but brands highlight their forgiving sweet spot and balanced feel as “versatility.”
