Ultimate Balanced Hybrid Paddle
Can’t decide between the long elongated shape or the arc shaped paddle, I present to you the hybrid shaped paddle, Pure. With a slightly wider head shape, the paddle’s hitting area is increased while maintaining a lower swing rate. An all-around great paddle to start and add to your collection.
Key Features
Polymer Honeycomb Core: A honeycomb-like core created with a plastic blend which helps with durability, resistance to wear and impact. This popular core material helps create more strength in the paddle without driving up the weight, compared to Nomex-core paddles.
Raw Carbon Fiber (Toray T700): Using 3 layers of T700 (Toray) Raw Carbon Fiber, it gives a player an elevated sense of touch and control during play. It absorbs and evenly disperses the energy minimizing deformation and more resistant to fatigue and wear than fiberglass or graphite.
Thermoformed: An intricate manufacturing process that uses heat and pressure to seal the paddle’s core and edges allowing for softer feel, larger sweet spot and increased power.
Foam Injected Edge and Handle: Foam is injected around the edges which allows for increased sweet spot from edge to edge, helping you better control mis-hits. Foam is also added to the handle for increased stability and a solution for tennis elbow.
Hybrid Shape: Evenly balanced and highly aerodynamic allowing for higher pop factor than control paddles
Neoprene Paddle Cover: Custom Mark Pickleball cover included with every paddle

Started with the Pure 16mm and loved it. Definitely a control paddle with a lot of grit and great feel.
I would say it has similar feel to a Vatic flash with more grit and touch.
After the wave Mod TA and Ripple paddles, I needed something with more pop off the face so the 14mm pure was the upgrade for that. The 14mm surprisingly plays like a 16mm for my resets and dinks, but has that extra put away power at the net.
Overall am very happy with the quality build of Mark pickleballs paddles. This is probably the first paddle in a while that has lasted me more than 3 months with out the core crushing or edge guard coming loose. (4.9 Dupr)
I bought the 14mm for my wife. She absolutely loves it, it’s her first paddle out of of her bag over her Joola and DBD. For the money you can’t go wrong.
Excellent paddle for the price
This paddle has pretty much everything that the higher (more expensive) paddles have at a fraction of the price. Everyone on court is able to see/hear how well made the paddle is and are consistently asking me where I got it from. Bypass the millions of inferior paddles on Amazon and just buy a Mark, you will not be disappointed.
The low swing weight makes for amazing hands speed. I enjoyed the good pop and control, though power was a tad lacking. Power was improved with lead tape added.
