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.

Great paddle for feel and control

I've tried 8 different paddles. Including the vatic pro. For me, this offered the best for control and power. Great feel.

The lip around the opening impedes play.

Alchemy 16mm

Wasn’t sure what to expect from the smaller air flow hole than what I was used to seeing from the likes of the Selkirk power airs or Luxx paddles, but after getting some real time on this paddle it’s become one of my favorites. I was skeptical at first from all the YouTube reviews and whatnot, but figured I’d still give it a shot since I’d loved the flash paddle. At first I did notice the weight difference, but after getting a couple games in, got accustomed to it. The swing and feel of the paddle has felt great. I don’t notice a drastic change in my hand speed at the kitchen, but definitely a little quicker with the air flow hole. As for my full swing from the back line, they feel much more solid and the touch I feel I get is nice. The swing on this paddle feels more natural and may be due to the tad bit heavier weight. It may not be for everyone, but I’ve come to really love this paddle, and it’s been my go to as of late.

Vatic Fan

I have pretty much all the Vatic paddles and have so for about a year plus now. After playing other brands i like Vatic the best. The Alchemy however is not my favorite. Though I like the way it plays for me , I prefer the 16 mm Flash as my favorite. I love its combination of control and power and would have ordered another one as it’s at the end of its life but I tried the Alchemy instead. All good. No matter what other brand I try, Vatic is my Paddle. Thank you.
