I have been playing for just about 2 years and play with/against mainly men and tend to play a more aggressive/fast paced style than a lot of women in my age/skill level. I have been using CRBN Paddles and tested and was going to purchase the Barrage, but wrecked my CRBN before it was available. My Mixed Doubs partner has been singing the praises of Chorus and his Coda, and the customer service etc, plus the pricing is not ridiculous, so I took a chance and ordered a Coda and LOVED it. Then the Harmony Grit came out and ordered one as soon as I could. I love the pop/power I can produce, as a tennis player, and the top-spin I can generate makes me happy. As a Pickleball player I also need that short game and touch for dinks/drops, placement and fast hands and there is a NOTICEABLE improvement in my confidence and that area of my game in the last 2 months or so since I have switch to the Coda, and the Harmony Grit is just another step up. The pricing is just a bonus. I like to save money where I can, but I also want a paddle that compliments my play style and helps me improve.
This paddle is amazing, the play matches the incredible looks. The CODA has great punch and power while being well balanced for a soft game. Face texture is holding up well on the Harmony Grit model. Going to main this paddle for a while.
I didn’t think grit was that important on my Coda H since its all foam and I already got great spin out of it, but the extra grit is just so nice to have! Speedups and flicks feel amazing and you can really hit harder and keep your ball in!
The Harmony Grit Chorus Coda is a really strong entry into the durable grit category, offering a unique approach to maintaining spin over time. It delivers excellent control with a clean, linear mid-tier power profile that feels predictable and easy to manage. The flat-top hybrid shape with a low swing weight keeps it quick in hand while still providing solid stability on contact. It’s a great value for players looking for consistent performance without sacrificing feel.
Has the power to finish points, yet enough control to dominate the soft game. That would be enough for most, but they went ahead and added a durable, long lasting grit. Can’t recommend this paddle enough!
I can never go back to another paddle. This thing honestly feels like an extension of my hand. It provides incredible control and has completely fixed my tendency to pop the ball out of the court. On top of that, their customer service is absolutely outstanding. 5 stars all day!
Got mine for 10% off with code: tenkpickleball. This thing plays better than my 6.0 coral. I can swing through the ball and it's more forgiving and controlled. I really like the shape of this paddle at the kitchen.
I hit a friends Coda. It was right for me. Soft compliant face feel with good pop but not over the top or hard to control pop. Power is where I need it. It’s a bit on the linear side where I can control shorter shots but I can activate it at the baseline and on serves. Spin feels elite. It’s close to the other durable grit paddles. I’m a big fan.
This truly may very well be the perfect paddle. Put succinctly: this just feels so natural and intuitive in your hands. Have tried most of the big brands: Selkirk, CRBN, Jolla. And none of those have felt as good in my hands at the Coda.
Bravo to this company.
Everything I expected and more. Tried quite a few paddles lately and I've found it to be the best of USAP approved paddles for me.
Awesome paddle!
The paddle is excellent on drives and resets. It has a nice feel on dinks. Love the Harmony grit for top spin. would purchase again.
Great pop and spin. Still able to control in dinking.
Almost Perfect. The paddle feel is great, the least stiff and hollow power paddle I’ve used (much closer to the middle of Jonkew’s feel wheel). Coming from an all-court paddle this was an easy transition. My only issue is the shape and size of the handle, I didn’t think it would be that big of a deal but with my eastern grip it can tough to find the right bevel after switching to continental for a flick.
Enjoying playing with this paddle. Hard shots very linear but still able the create shape when I choose to.
Love this hybrid shape. So far, the grit feels great. Played with it for about a week, so about 6 hours, and this thing is pretty powerful. Reminds me of the Loco.
Awesome paddle! Great balance of power and control, fun to play with!
I switched to the Chorus Coda Harmony H after just one match, and I haven’t looked back. As a 4.5 player, I usually have to choose between "touch" and "power," but this paddle refuses to compromise.
The Harmony Grit is the real deal. The ball pockets I’m getting insane topspin on my serves with significantly less wrist fatigue. My serves are dipping over the net and hitting the baseline effortlessly. While the power is top-tier (easily competing and leading with the best foam paddles on the market), the soft game is where it surprised me. Drops and dinks feel natural, not "springy" or unpredictable like other power paddles.
At $200 (also easy to find a discount), it makes the $300+ big-brand paddles look like a bad investment. If you want longevity, elite spin, and effortless power, this is an easy choice.
Tried many of the foam paddles that have been released recently but have always gone back to my honeycomb paddles because they didn't feel connected to the ball - until the Coda. Give it a solid week of play and it will turn into an extension of your hand. Matt has put together a paddle with a unique feel off the face (soft and dense) and as large a sweetspot as you'll find. Enough power to put the ball away but not get you in trouble. Throw in durable/harmony grit and you may not need a new paddle for a good long while.
This paddle is fantastic—the performance lives up to its stunning design. The CODA delivers excellent power and control while staying well-balanced for softer play. The face texture on the Harmony Grit model is holding up nicely. This is going to be my primary paddle for a long time.
How I picked this paddle up and felt comfortable in it right away, I have no idea. I'm sure mine is not fully broken in yet, but the feel so far is quite unique. I currently own over 40 paddles and have tried over 100 and none have felt like the CODA. It has plenty of power for me to put away points, which I can rarely do. Can't wait to keep playing with it.
Was lucky to get the new CODA with Harmony grit re-release. Took a few days to understand the difference a full foam paddle gives and break it in fully. Already seeing a difference in my game. To begin with, it adds enough power that I do not have to swing as hard as I hard to put balls away, which is good on my arm. Also, the feedback I’m getting from full foam is really helping me with resets in the mid court. Love this paddle.
Love this new CHORUS CODA! The grit gives you spin and control. It’s soft, yet also has plenty of POP with the Treble Foam. Great job, CHORUS!!❤️
Great paddle long lasting grit. Power paddle for sure.
