UPA-A

When we started UPA-A, we knew we had to partner with the very best in the business. We saught out the most esteemed engineers, leading academic institutions, and equipment manufacturers who had done it all before. That’s what led us to @ADCSportsLogic

What’s the point of having rules if they are not enforced? Take a look at this chart from paddles submitted for UPA-A Certification.

If @jessie_irvine told you to jump out of plane you wouldn’t do it and nor should you. It wouldn’t be safe. It’s no different with playing with (or against) a fake paddle. A fake paddle may look the same, but making a paddle hit extra powerful is no longer difficult.

You wouldn’t trust Jack Munro to diffuse a bomb. He’s not certified to do that. Fake paddles aren’t certified either and change the game. Since they are unregulated, they may hit too hard to control, break too easily, or change over time. Don’t play with a fake. Play it fair.

You wouldn’t trust @katefahey6 to use your back as a canvas and nor should you. Same goes for counterfeit paddles. You cannot trust them. Buy legitimate paddles from authentic sources. Play it fair.

You wouldn’t trust @AllyceJones to fix your issues with your car’s crankshaft and nor should you. Same goes for counterfeit paddles. You cannot trust them. Buy legitimate paddles from authentic sources. Play it fair.

You wouldn’t trust @AndreiDaescuPkl to cure your back pain by sticking needles into you like you’re a pin cushion and nor should you. Same goes for counterfeit paddles. You cannot trust them. Buy legitimate paddles from authentic sources. Play it fair.

You would not trust @ChristianAlshon to formulate a flu shot and nor should you. Same goes for counterfeit paddles, you can’t trust them. Buy legitimate paddles from authentic sources. Play it fair.

You wouldn’t trust JW Johnson to sell you a diamond. Nor should you. Same goes for counterfeit paddles. Don’t trust a fake paddle. Buy from reputable sources.

You wouldn’t trust @TheMeganFudge to solve a crime. Nor should you. Same with counterfeit paddles, they can’t be trusted.
