The Edge BluCore Pro 16mm by the numbers
Each bar places this paddle between the lowest and highest figure among the 41 paddle models on our wall. The dot is this paddle, the tick is the average. These are the makers' published specs, not lab measurements.
Buy it if
- You want a thicker core. At 16 mm it sits at the thick end, which usually means a softer feel and more control.
- You hit a two-handed backhand. The 5.7-inch handle leaves room for both hands.
Skip it if
- You want the quicker pop of a thinner 13 or 14 mm core.
What players say about Pickleland

Nice setup for players at any level. Would recommend to anyone looking for great pickleball!
Pickleland is great! 9 beautiful courts that are completely separate from each other! There are so many opportunities to play all week long. I'm so glad Pflugerville has something that the whole family can enjoy!
I had a blast the first day at Pickleland! Met some new friends, played some competitive games, and toured the awesome new facility in Pflugerville! Looking forward to getting to know the community. Staff is extremely helpful and knowledgeable.
