Onix Pickleball is one of the sport’s original equipment brands, founded in 2005 and headquartered in Evansville, Indiana as part of Escalade Sports. The paddle line covers every budget tier, from recreational starter paddles through performance models like the Hype X up to tournament paddles such as the Evoke Premier Pro with raw carbon fiber faces, many built on Onix’s patented Power Frame ThermoFused construction that fuses face and handle into a single reinforced piece. Onix also makes the Pure 2 outdoor ball, nets, bags, and accessories, and sponsors professional players who compete on tour with its gear. A paddle quiz on the site matches players to models by skill level and play style.
