4. Maintenance
Proper care and maintenance will extend the life and performance of your pickleball paddle.
- Cleaning the Surface: Wipe the carbon fiber surface with a soft, damp cloth after each use to remove dirt, sweat, and ball residue. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the surface.
- Grip Care: If the grip becomes dirty or slippery, gently clean it with a mild soap solution and a soft cloth. Allow it to air dry completely before storage. If the grip wears out, it can be replaced.
- Edge Guard: Inspect the tear-resistant edge strip regularly for any signs of wear or damage. The edge guard protects the paddle's core from impacts.
- Storage: Store your paddle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Using a paddle cover or bag (as shown in some product images) can provide additional protection against scratches and environmental damage.
5. Troubleshooting
While the Hyperion T700 paddle is built for durability, here are some common issues and their potential solutions:
- Reduced Performance/Loss of Power:
- Inspect the paddle face for any significant wear, cracks, or delamination. Severe damage may require paddle replacement.
- Ensure the surface is clean and free of debris that might affect ball contact and spin. - Uncomfortable Grip/Slippage:
- The PU perforated grip is designed to absorb sweat. If it feels excessively slippery, clean it as per maintenance instructions.
- If the grip is worn, consider replacing it with a new overgrip or replacement grip. - Rattling Sound:
- A rattling sound inside the paddle could indicate a loose piece of the core or edge guard. If this occurs, discontinue use and contact customer support.
