The OCBC Limited Edition ISSEI-zuke Paddle
We are launching the ISSEI Paddle with community as the primary focus of our brand. The Orange County Buddhist Church in Anaheim, California has a long history of serving generations of families in search of a thriving and nurturing environment to discover their tribe.

The ISSEI-zuke paddle was designed, crafted and tested by the pickleball community at OCBC, so naturally, it made sense to launch our startup with a limited edition paddle that honors the legacy and impact this community has had on its members.

Each paddle is uniquely numbered with Chinese characters to ensure every paddle is unique to each player.  No two paddles are alike.  All profits from the sale of these paddles will be donated to OCBC community programs to enhance the impact they make on the local area.
