Alchemy by Spencer Smith pushes the boundaries of pickleball technology. We have implemented the highest quality TORAY T700 raw Carbon Fiber and engineering to help you perform at the highest level on the pickleball court.

The unique enhanced airflow channel above the throat creates faster swing speed and promotes more "feel" during play, allowing greater control on the court.

The paddle's curved tip makes it easy to handle and maneuver, while its elongated grip ensures room for two-handed backhands. With our renowned thermoforming technology, we provide a dominant yet sleek paddle while still maintaining a competitive price. Carbon fiber is stronger, more resistant to deformation under stress, and more resistant to fatigue and wear than fiberglass or graphite. Even through rigorous play, your Vatic Pro paddle will maintain its integrity, grit, and strength. 

Please note: we work to accommodate all custom weight requests. However, due to increased demand and limited inventory, exact weights are not guaranteed.

For international customers: please note that shipping costs do not include any additional taxes/duties that may be required. See our Shipping & Returns page for more info.

4 for 4 with it on my 1st day

I played a couple of games against my friend who had this paddle and he did very well. I asked him if I could try his paddle and I noticed a marked difference in pop on the ball. I knew I had to get one. A week later, I have one in my hands at the court. I love my new Vatic paddle. Had a great day with it. Won three singles games and then a doubles game. It gave me good control and pop on the ball. The handle was a bit thin for my large hands so after I put a rubber grip on it, I had great control and almost perfect feel. It would be hard to play with my old paddles after using this one.

Smacks exactly as I hoped for

Although a lot of people complain about the edge guard on the throat, I actually saw it as a challenge to keep my hits in the sweet spot. I have the 16mm and I love the way it smacks the ball. Very satisfying in my opinion. This is my current main paddle.

Alchemy 13.5

Only played once with the new paddle for 6 games. A definite step up from my old paddle! The power it has is solid but the control and spin are off the charts. Thank you Vatic Pro! I forsee a lot of improvement in my game with the advantages this paddle provides for my game!

Great touch and feel

This is my third Vatic Pro paddle. Previously I have used the Flash and the V7 and my wife uses a Prism Flash. The Alchemy has been a great update from both, for my game! It feels lighter in my hand than the listed weight. It has great feel and touch for the soft game, but plenty of pop when needed.
I’m my opinion, you can’t go wrong with any of Vatic’s paddles. Great construction and durability. Great cost for value.
