Meet Friday’s Pickleball Paddle Fever Vice
Pickleball has never looked this good—or played this sharp.
Friday Pickleball, a brand known for bringing both style and high-performance engineering to the courts, is launching the newest member of its Fever collection: VICE.
With its bold pink-and-turquoise Miami-inspired flair, this paddle doesn’t just turn heads; it delivers uncompromising performance designed for today’s fast-paced, spin-heavy game.
VICE blends Friday Pickleball’s signature style with cutting-edge paddle technology, making it a must-have for players who want equal parts flair and finesse.
So here’s a closer look at why the newest Friday Pickleball Fever paddle is already making waves.
Flat-Top Design for a Wider Sweet Spot
The Friday Pickleball Fever collection has been celebrated for its smooth balance of power, control, and spin—but the new VICE paddle adds a unique twist.
Unlike Friday’s original rounded-top paddles, the flat-top design of VICE provides slightly more surface area.
What that means is more coverage when you’re reaching wide, digging out blocks, or stretching into those defensive resets.
Also, despite this design change, the paddle’s specs remain almost identical to its rounded sibling—delivering a familiar feel with an edge in reach and forgiveness.
Pair that with an EVA foam–injected grip (Tennis Style Grip) for comfort and control, and you’ve got a paddle built for marathon matches and clutch moments.
Signature T700 Carbon Fiber Surface
At the heart of VICE—and the entire Fever line—is Friday’s triple-layer T700 raw carbon fiber surface.
This isn’t just marketing hype; T700 carbon is prized for its ability to create exceptional ball bite, maximizing spin potential without sacrificing durability.
Whether you’re rolling a topspin third shot, dropping a soft dink into the kitchen, or carving out a sharp angle winner, VICE’s gritty surface stays consistent point after point.
That means elite-level spin you can trust, no matter how long the match stretches on!
Specs That Perform
Friday’s attention to detail in paddle construction shines through in the Fever series, and VICE is no exception.
Here’s the breakdown:
- Width: 7.5″
- Length: 16.5″
- Thickness: 16mm
- Average Weight: 7.7 oz.
- Grip Size: 5.5″ x 4.25″ Tennis Grip
- USA Pickleball Approved
These specs strike the perfect balance—long enough for reach, wide enough for control, and light enough to whip through the air with speed.
Add to that the paddle’s sleek Electric Touch technology, and you’ve got performance that’s as smooth as it is explosive.
Electric Touch: Effortless Control in Every Pickleball Rally
Wondering what Electric Touch technology is?
So one of the standout features of the Fever line—and now perfected in VICE—is Electric Touch.
This design gives you a longer dwell time, which basically means the ball sits on the paddle face just a bit longer.
The result? Better resets, smoother kitchen battles, and pinpoint accuracy on your drops. You can really feel the control.
For players looking to elevate their soft game, this feature is a game-changer. It brings finesse back into a sport that’s only getting faster, helping you keep rallies alive while staying in control of the pace.
Effortless Power Meets Explosive Pickleball Pop
While VICE is engineered for feel, it doesn’t skimp on firepower.
Foam strategically placed throughout the paddle’s structure provides extra pop without sacrificing control. That means your drives carry more weight, your counters sting a little sharper, and your finishing shots feel effortless.
Make that point!
For competitive players, this is the sweet spot—raw power when you need it, paired with a smooth touch for those delicate moments at the net.
A Pickleball Paddle Built to Last: Core Durability Redefined
Friday knows that performance isn’t just about how a paddle feels on Day One—it’s about how long it stays reliable. With reinforced core architecture, the Fever collection goes beyond standard Gen 3 paddle durability.
VICE is built to minimize deformation, resist core crushing, and hold its true shape over time. For serious players logging hours on the court, that translates to consistency match after match, season after season.
Why VICE Belongs in Your Bag
In short, Friday Pickleball’s VICE paddle is more than just a pretty face.
Yes, its pink grip and retro Miami-inspired aesthetic make it one of the most stylish paddles you’ll see on the courts.
But underneath that eye-catching design is serious engineering: spin-maximizing carbon fiber, Electric Touch for ultimate control, effortless power, and durability that lasts.
For players who care about both performance and personality, VICE is the perfect fit. It’s bold, it’s playful, and it’s built to compete at the highest levels.
So whether you’re dropping dimes in the kitchen, driving with authority, or simply making a statement when you walk onto the courts, VICE brings the heat.
The Fever collection has already earned its reputation as one of the most balanced and innovative paddle lines on the market.
With the release of VICE, Friday Pickleball has elevated both style and substance. Don’t be surprised when you start seeing it everywhere—this paddle is destined to be a fan favorite!
