Product Details
Product Details
As MEHAU’s flagship pickleball paddle, the S5 is engineered from the ground up for faster handling, direct power, precise control, and consistent feedback.
Reengineered Core • From Trampoline to Bow Effect
The Airpoom™ Aerodynamic Frame replaces the traditional foam wall with a one-piece air chamber and rigid carbon fiber monocoque frame, creating a more controlled and consistent deformation path.
This shifts energy transfer from the traditional Trampoline Effect to a Bow Effect — delivering more direct power, clearer feedback, and predictable shot response.
15° Carbon Texture • High Grip, Low Drag
A multi-layer carbon fiber surface creates a consistent 15° directional texture for reliable friction, spin, and control without sacrificing swing speed.
Combined with Airpoom™ Aerodynamic Technology, the S5 delivers smooth acceleration and quick handling for fast-paced net play.
Ultra-Lightweight 7.6 oz • Built for Fast Hands
At just 7.6 oz, the S5 is built for faster swings, quicker reactions, and rapid hands battles at the net.
Its low starting weight also leaves more room for customization, allowing players to fine-tune weight and balance to match their game.
Lucky Mascot Design • Your Victory Totem
Six Lucky Mascot elements come to life through a distinctive parallax design, revealing depth and dimension as light and viewing angles change.
Performance meets personality — Your Paddle. Your Luck. Your Victory Totem.

Awesome paddle!! Light weight but packed with power. Easy on controlled shots and pops but beast on drives and overheads. It doesn't need breaking time.
Definitely my favorite paddle!!
I usually prefer more control, and this paddle feels like a really good balance. It gives me the control I need while still having plenty of power when I want it. I can get a decent amount of spin too.
Really enjoying this paddle so far. Good pop without feeling too hard to control, and it feels very comfortable during longer games.
Easy to play with and looks great too.
Very nice paddle for the price. Lightweight, comfortable in the hand, and easy to play with.
Really loving the colorway and the meaning behind this paddle. The grit feels noticeably stronger, and the frame feels smoother and more rounded this time — probably designed to make quick volleys and hand battles even faster.Still need more time to test the long-term durability, but so far it feels great. The edge guard design looks super clean, and even the grip feels like a nice upgrade.
The S5 Sage Rhino looks even better in person. The design and colorway are super clean, and the whole paddle just feels premium in hand.
Already can’t wait to get out on the court and start ripping drives and battling at the kitchen with this thing
At 219g, this paddle feels super quick in the hands. I immediately noticed faster reactions during hands battles and quick volleys at the kitchen.
The build quality on this paddle is seriously impressive. Right out of the box it felt premium and really well made.
Groundstrokes have plenty of power, but what surprised me most was how controlled and consistent it feels. Whether I’m extended dinking, mixing in drives and drops, or speeding things up at the kitchen, the feedback off the face feels super clean and solid.
Definitely feels like a true all-court paddle that can handle both control and aggressive play really well.
The paddle feels really light in the hand and super easy to swing — even after long games my arm doesn’t feel tired at all. I think a lot of female players would love this paddle because it feels effortless to maneuver at the kitchen.
The gritty surface feels really premium, and the control is super solid. Dinks, resets, and touch shots all feel very stable and consistent.
Been waiting for the MEHAU S5 for a while and it definitely lived up to the hype. The red colorway looks even better in person ❤️
First thing I noticed on court was how forgiving the sweet spot feels. Dinks, resets, volleys, and drops all come off super clean and consistent. It has that soft controlled feel, but still gives you enough pop when you speed things up.
I’d definitely recommend it for control-oriented players, and honestly I think a lot of female players would really like it too since it feels quick in the hands and really easy to maneuver at the kitchen. 🔥
Super stable control, tons of pop, and crazy good ball speed. Whether I’m ripping drives from the baseline or speeding up hands battles at the kitchen, everything feels quick and clean. Honestly feels like my level went up 0.5 overnight 😂
Paddle is lightweight and makes for quick responses. It has finesse, but also power.
I love the paddle , it works pretty well.
I play nearly every day for 3 to 4 hours and it was becoming apparent that my old paddle had lost it's pop. I watched how Hunter Johnson won singles gold in North Carolina and immediately went online and bought the Mehau S5 Airpoom. I absolutely love it. It fits my soft game play style. It's light, powerful, and has a texture that accentuates my slice and topspin shots without losing control.
Wonderful paddle! Full of power, but the grit allows me to dink consistently. Plus… it’s really pretty! 🤭
This is an amazing paddle. It’s the best paddle I ever used. The control, feel and power are on the spot.
It's the best paddle I have ever played competitive pickball with
Love this paddle. Been playing a lot better since I received it. It’s exactly like they advertised
好👍
“I have a CRBN foam paddle — good feeling and powerful — but the MEHAU S5 surpassed all my expectations. Power shots, dinking, and control are on another level. It was really fun to play with it.” Excellent spinning on the serve.....!
Wow this paddle is actually really good! Very great grit and spin and easy to handle the paddle.
I've played with other $300+ paddles: Boomstik, Omni, Joola Pro V. But this one blows them out of the water with the amount of control and spin this paddle has. Very impressed with it for being such a light weight paddle.
Took me a couple of games to get used to it, but once I did, I really liked the feel. Very stable on blocks and resets, and still enough power when I speed the ball up.
Very impressed with the S5 paddle! It has a great amount of power and precise touch for soft shots. I can't wait to play more with this paddle.
