The Whisper Difference
Amazing Results
Our qualified studio and field engineers have thoroughly assessed our products for both pitch and decibel levels. The evidence has been documented and our Acousti-pads™ are proven to effectively reduce noise by 55%.
According to our research the more detrimental aspect of pickleball noise is the degree of the pitch measured in Hz. Most bare paddles create a pitch that is in the range of 1000 - 1200 Hz. This is as disturbing as listening to a garbage truck reverse signal all day long multiplied by the number of courts per location. It's a valid complaint and Whisper Paddles™ has come up with an effective sound abatement solution that is far more economical than building sound barriers. Our product is perfect for both outdoor areas and, now becoming a necessity for every indoor location.
QUALITY OF PLAY
Whisper Paddles™ has also undergone extensive testing by professional players, resulting in a unanimous conclusion: they significantly enhance performance. Players are impressed by the increased touch, feel, and precision of the Acousti-Pads™ tech.
The paddle's design offers exceptional spin, power and response, surpassing top market competitors. Enjoy the fabulous expanded sweet spot!
While players may initially miss the loud "whack" sound, our advanced materials and engineering ensure pro-level play without compromise. Experience the performance enhancement of Whisper Paddles™ and you'll never return to the old standard.

OUR FOUNDERS
Kenny Weinstein
Founder & CEO
Kenny started playing tennis with a wood racket when he was 4 years old. He has seen how much the equipment had changed over the years and how much the game has improved in speed, touch and spin. From wood to steel, and then to aluminum and graphite, these changes helped advance the game of tennis.
"When I went down to the pickleball courts and heard what was going on, I knew I had to do something positive to make the game better. And so began my research into the manufacturing of Whisper Paddles™."
Kenny's life-long experience supplying the major retailers throughout North America has given our new company the confidence and know-how to bring about a major important change. He has decades of experience manufacturing, developing new consumer products, controlling the quality and managing supply chain. In light of this we have carefully chosen to work with top American and German partners in the creation of our patented premium quality products.
Please help us make the changes in equipment to ensure that pickleball grows globally and keeps the peace in every neighborhood and indoor location.
