One permanent page per paddle: when it launched, what it cost, where it is legal, how it is
built, and what has happened to it since. Each page links out to every lab that put it on a
radar gun. Every fact carries its source.
It is the recordRelease dates with their precision stated, list prices, certification on both rulebooks, the quiet list, patent status, delistings, phase-outs. The things no lab database keeps.
It is not a labJohn Kew, Pickleball Effect, Pickleball Studio and Matt's Pickleball own the radar guns. The register links to their page for each paddle and shows swingweight and twistweight only with the lab's name on it.
The pictures are drawingsEach paddle is drawn to scale from its published dimensions, cut away to show the core. Product photos belong to the brands; every page links to theirs.
It is openCC0. The whole register is one JSON file, each paddle has its own, and agents can read both. The register carries no affiliate links and no discount codes.
THE OTHER HALF · ON RALLY
What happens after you buy it.
Keep a bag: the hours on each paddle, when the grit fades, when it goes dead. It lives on your device. Enough bags and the register can publish real lifespans.
