Our Story

Solara '94 was launched out of my love for pickleball. And quickly… after a year of playing, I knew I wanted to create a paddle that could perform and would be aesthetic enough for my wife to want to play. Pickleball has become a pivotal part of my life, even more so since starting this company. I hope these paddles help you fall in love with the game. 

Who We Are

Solara simply means "of the sun" or being outdoors. Pickleball brings people together under the sun. As someone who has spent years working from home, pickleball continues to take me outside and into my community. Solara '94 is a pickleball brand that embraces community, movement, and style. 

Pickleball brings people of all ages and backgrounds together. I've personally been humbled on the court by many people twice my age. And that's the beauty of pickleball. You get to interact with people you wouldn't intentionally meet, which is part of the mission behind Solara '94.

More than a stylish paddle

An underlying reason why people love pickleball is the positive impact it has on your mental health. We hope our paddles encourage new players to experience the same benefits. We're setting aside a portion of revenue from each paddle for organizations that support mental health and youth development. Do you have an organization or individual that would benefit from our support? Let us know!
