Welcome to Episode 24 of the Pickleball Connection podcast! In this episode, Barrett and Danea Bass talk about new pickleball paddle regulations, including the formation of the UPA-A, new certification fees for paddle manufacturers, and the implications of spin limits and testing reliability. They discuss continued challenges of regulation paddle technology and if it will eliminate the fair playing field in professional pickleball, and how to keep smaller companies in the game (with a $20,000 fee!).
