Pickleball· Rush

GoodUpdated on 10/05/2026

The Diadem Rush First Responder Series pickleball paddle is elongated and control-oriented, with a textured fiberglass face 7.5 in wide, which gives rebound and grip for slices and drives. The core is 16 mm polymer honeycomb, which gives a soft touch. The 16.4 in length and 5.4 in handle help reach difficult dinks and give speed to smashes and serves. It weighs 7.9 oz on average (7.7 to 8.1 oz) and has a 4 1/8 in grip.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%68
Approval from players35%65

The RR Score is not yet a precise figure. It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.
