That's why we're proud to introduce the Gen3 Alecto3 pickleball paddle, with DynamoCore for pop and power balanced with the same popular hybrid shape and 100% DuPont Kevlar as the best-selling Alecto Blue for great touch and feel. And with all our paddles, 50% of our profits are donated to charity. With the Alecto3, you're not just improving your game, you're making a difference.

Key Features:

  • DynamoCore Gen3 Core for Power: The Alecto paddle is equipped with the revolutionary DynamoCore Gen3 core, designed to deliver explosive power on drives, counters, and speed-ups, while maintaining a refined touch on resets, drops, and dinks.

FAQ

  • What’s in the Gen3 DynamoCore? Foam along the perimeter, similar to other Gen3s, for propulsion effect. Addressed core crush issues with other Gen3s by balancing amount of foam.
  • How should I keep my Alecto clean? While surface dust that eventually collects on the Alecto will not significantly affect gameplay, you can always use either water or a Pickleball Cleaner spray (like this one) to wipe away aesthetic dust and ball particles from your paddle. We do NOT recommend traditional carbon fiber paddle erasers as they may force particles on the surface from causing extra abrasion and potentially damaging the kevlar fibers. 
  • Why is it called "Alecto"? We're glad you asked! Alecto is one of the three Furies in Greek mythology, generally associated with vengeance. She's also a winged and unrelenting sister, along with Tisiphone and Megaera. So get out there and punish your opponents' popups with a vengeance!
  • What is your return policy? We're confident you'll love your paddle and will take back within the return window, no questions asked - read more about our return policy here. If you're not sure if this paddle is right for you, we strongly encourage you to try out our demo program instead of making a purchase, since we charge a restocking fee to return used paddles as we cannot sell them as new.
  • Does my paddle have a warranty? Of course! We have an industry standard six month warranty against manufacturer defects - read more about it here.

  • Are you making any other Alecto Variants, like Carbon Fiber or Titanium surfaces? No - all Alecto's have and will have Kevlar surfaces.
  • Can I request a lighter paddle? Note the Alecto3 Red is more head-heavy than our other paddles due to the extra foam layer at the head of the paddle. Unfortunately our fulfillment centers do not have a way to measure weight/swingweight so if you're concerned with this, the Alecto Blue, Alecto Green or Helios might be a better choice for you.

Eh

It's ok. I was hoping to like it more but it's alright. I lost a lot of control when I made the switch to it.

Best Power hybrid

Definitely more pop and power than any gen 2 on the market, It’s no mod ta15 but it’s up there. Still has good control and feel due to the Kevlar face. Mines did get more powerful after breaking in but is still manageable, no core issues whatsoever.

Exceptional paddle.

Although I wouldn’t consider its true Gen 3 power paddle, it plays as perfect as a paddle could at this point in the ever evolving race to power and control.

Dinks, drops and resets are fantastic with this paddle, along with drives serves and smashes.

It’s not too slow at the net either. Definitely still quick enough for most fire fights.

I love having accesss to more power when I need it but also can play the soft game all day long too.

Sweet spot is typical gen 2 thermo but I seem to hit most of the time naturally.

So far it’s the best blend of touch and power on the market. It’s got some pop too, but very manageable.

Great paddle.

Excellent

I purchased this paddle 3 weeks ago. I play near 4. 0 and play 10+ hrs aweek plus drill time. This paddle is all good. Very good fel for drops, dinks and resets. Howeber, it has good power for smashes. I suggest give it a serious try. Can't belive the price for it.

Alecto3 - what a great paddle

Played with my Alecto3 for a few weeks now and love it. Coming from a Joola C2, I found this paddle to have better power and pop. The biggest surprise was the amount of control.
Would definitely recommend to anyone!
