Diadem Warrior Classic v1 Pickleball Paddle

Diadem Warrior Classic v1 Pickleball Paddle – Timeless Power Meets Modern Control

The original Diadem Warrior is back—refined and reintroduced with cutting-edge materials and an unmatched feel. Built with Diadem’s signature 3X L-Core, this paddle uses a 3-layer honeycomb structure—polypropylene, aramid, and polypropylene again—to deliver a uniquely solid 19mm profile that enhances control on dinks without sacrificing power during drives and slams.

The Taper Tech handle design enables such a thick paddle to retain a slim 4 1/8" grip, giving you high-level performance with ergonomic comfort. Paired with a Carbon Fiber face finished in Diadem’s proprietary Grit Paint, the Warrior Classic excels at spin generation, ball feedback, and shot stability across the entire hitting surface.

Despite its heavier 8.5 oz frame, the paddle feels balanced and fast in the hand, making it ideal for aggressive players who still value finesse and consistency. With an expanded sweet spot and excellent off-center forgiveness, this paddle is built for confident play in any scenario.
