Fun or no fun I can’t comment

All I know is there are a lot of hot chicks and wealthy people jumping onto the bandwagon lately like it’s some sort of hipster sport

to label it a hipster spot may be inaccurate.

I play padel and pickleball regularly. Would say it's a very good instrument to grow social circle organically without looking like you're too despo to grow your social circle and maybe seek out for a partner.

Badminton is too competitive and a bit too Cina, although I will attest that it's the most exciting sport to watch. Pickleball is a lot more forgiving.

Pickle/padel is also a good excuse for us to flaunt our Lululemons.

I played badminton regularly and ping pong when I was a kid
Although I never played the game, from my point of view, it’s a bit too slow for my liking.

After the first serve, all four players on the court just rush to the net line or whatever they call it, then they just do low lobs and returns over the net back and forth back and forth, until one dude hits it too high and then they would get smacked…

Courts are too small, so putting spin on the ball can be easily dealt with due to the slow speed


I see a lot of ppl posting pictures holding their paddles on social media more than playing the game itself… but thanks for being honest that ppl join to grow their social circle rather for the love of the sport lol
