Pickleball Paddle Graphics Design

You liked the bigger logo? Thanks

I opted for a design without the large Z and liked the placement on the sides the best. By keeping the middle free, the design becomes a little sleeker, calmer, and more chic. At least, that is how I experience it. With option 3, left and right are also in balance. Good luck.

The designs with the large Z remind me how tennis folks would dye their strings.

It got me wondering if the Z had any technical meaning besides fashion. I'm not a pickle ball player, just wondering if the Z could resemble the sweet spot of the paddle where you try to hit the ball?

Then I got lost trying to picture a pickle ball paddle like the pitch zone in baseball, where the hitters zone is broken down to a grid, showing a pitcher the potential hot and cold spots for a batter. Or a training racket, perhaps there are certain spots of the paddle one tries to hit the ball with for the best slice vs topspin vs flat shots? Put a sensor in the middle of the paddle and record how many shots hit the sweet spot?

By the time I was done trying to reinvent the paddle of a sport I've only played a few times, I forgot the original question was multiple choice, 1-4.

Anyways, after all this, all I have to say is nice initiative to make use of this 3L.com!

I've only played a few times and had my pickle balls handed to me by a regional champ each time.

I'd view videos and see what the resting position of the paddle is between plays and/or while resting. It might work out in such a way that the orientation should be up/down rather than left right.

Additionally, have it flipped from side A as opposed to side B so no matter how it is 'rested', the name/logo has a better chance of being easily read.

If you plan to use a 3L of this caliber, make that sucker big! Let the live crowd, still photos and/or videos make it easy to see.

It could mean that none of the 4 options are really that great... Is there a 5th option?

Could be. I love suggestions.

Another choice to make. Black or gold edge protector?

Another one.

This one to me looks great!

Turns out the titanium/carbon fiber fabric is not black.
