Why it is $209 here and $280 everywhere else
- 1We buy at distribution volume, not retail. Padelnox runs one warehouse and no shopfronts. The margin a pro shop spends on rent and staff is the margin you keep.
- 2stock, sealed and unused. Same frame, same factory, same cover as the Proton pro shop sells. We just do not charge you for the shopfront.
- 3You are covered either way. Tracked delivery, 30-day returns on unused gear, and a real person on the other end of our contact page.
Project Flamingo is the latest version of Proton's Series Three, built right at the limits for power and surface roughness and dual-stamped for both UPA-A and USA Pickleball play. Proton's Velocity core blends high-density performance foam with polypropylene honeycomb for extra dwell time, under a roughness-enhanced raw carbon face for heavy spin. Pick the elongated shape for reach or the wide body for a larger, more forgiving face, each in 13mm or 15mm.

What buyers say
★★★★★ 4.9 out of 5 from 110 reviewsArrived faster than the estimate and the tracking updated the whole way. The frame itself is exactly as described.
I was nervous ordering a racket online at this price. No need. It is the real thing and the balance is spot on.
Switched from a cheaper beginner frame and the control difference is obvious immediately. Worth every cent.
Grip, cover and frame all as pictured. My coach checked it over and confirmed it is genuine.
Good to know
Yes. Play with it for 30 days. If the frame is not what you wanted, send it back in unused condition and we refund it in full. You do not need to give a reason. Return postage on a change of mind is yours; if the item arrived faulty or wrong, we cover it.
Your order includes exactly what is listed in the product details above, such as a racket cover or gift box where stated. Overgrips, frame protectors and bags are sold separately.
A 16 mm core gives more control and a softer feel; 14 mm gives more pop and power. Newer players are usually happier with 16 mm.
These are the brands' standard models. Check the current USA Pickleball approved list for the exact model if you play sanctioned events.
