“The deflection tests (in #PPA ) are not great. We need to throw the ball into the paddle at a given speed and see how hard it come off the paddle. It doesn’t matter how thin or thick is the paddle or what surface is. Here’s what the limit is and if it exceeds it you’re not allowed to use the paddle,” Johns said in PicklePod.“I’ve talked to Carl Schmetz a bit on that.
