Diadem Hush

The Hush uses an innovative eTPU foam face and a two-piece molding system that absorbs impact energy rather than reflecting it as a sharp 'pop.' This construction is lab-tested to be 40% quieter than traditional paddles, making it a practical choice for noise-restricted courts.

While the focus is on sound reduction, the paddle is designed to maintain competitive performance. The 18mm thickness and polypropylene core provide a responsive feel that allows for effective drives and dinks, though the soft face material prioritizes control and touch over raw power.

Yes, the Diadem Hush is fully USA Pickleball approved. It meets all regulatory standards for competitive play, so you can use it in sanctioned tournaments without issue.

At 8.15 ounces with a 240mm balance point, this paddle sits in the mid-weight range, offering a stable feel that isn't overly heavy. The 5.6-inch handle length also provides enough room for players who prefer a two-handed backhand.

The eTPU foam is engineered for durability, but it will have a different texture and wear pattern compared to traditional carbon fiber or fiberglass faces. It is built to withstand consistent play, though you should expect the surface to show signs of wear differently than a standard hard-faced paddle.
