Specifications breakdown
The Plukk is a telescopic ball collector built for coaches running drills, players collecting balls between sessions, and anyone whose back has already done enough work for the day.
Rather than listing measurements that vary slightly between production runs, we describe what the Plukk does and how it works. Specific dimensions are noted on the product packaging and confirmed at fulfillment.
How the Plukk Works
The Plukk uses a spring-loaded press-down mechanism rather than a sweeping or scoop motion. To collect a ball:
- Place the basket directly over a ball on the ground
- Press down — the parallel metal rods on the bottom of the basket part to allow the ball to enter
- Release pressure — the springs snap the rods closed, trapping the ball inside the mesh basket
- Continue to the next ball
Empty the basket by tipping it over and letting balls roll out into a hopper, tube, or your bag.
The Telescopic Handle
The handle adjusts in length to match your height. Extended for tall players or upright walking. Shortened for storage and transport. The handle attaches to the basket with a secure threaded connection that disassembles in seconds.
Capacity
The basket holds enough pickleballs to clear a typical drill session before needing to be emptied. We recommend pairing the Plukk with the Fjara Trener ball hopper for high-volume training — the Plukk for collection, the Trener for storage and dispensing.
Built For
The Plukk is the right tool for:
- Coaches running drill sessions and clinic days
- Players with back, knee, or hip issues who can't bend repeatedly
- Older players who want to keep playing without paying for it physically
- Solo drillers who pick up dozens of balls between sets
- Anyone who's done the math: bending fifty times to collect fifty balls is a workout you didn't ask for
Not Built For
The Plukk is designed for routine ball collection — not maximum speed. If you're collecting fewer than ten balls per session, your hands and a bucket will do the job faster. The Plukk earns its place in your kit when you're collecting balls regularly.
Product details
Plukk - Ball Collector Tube
A telescopic ball picker for the players and coaches who don't bend down anymore.
Plukk is Norwegian for picking - the simple act of gathering what's already on the ground.
The Fjara Plukk is built for the moment after the drill ends, when 30 balls are scattered across the court and your back has already done enough for the day. The telescopic handle extends to working height. The press-down mesh basket scoops a ball with each press. Walk the court, press, repeat. Collected in minutes instead of bent-over twenties.
Built for coaches running drill blocks. Built for players whose knees prefer not to participate in ball collection. Built for anyone who wants their warm-up to be the warm-up, not the cleanup after.
The Fjara Plukk features a rigid square wire-mesh basket with a spring-loaded press-down collection mechanism on the bottom. Press the basket down over a ball; the parallel metal rods part to allow entry; the springs snap shut once the ball is captured. No bending, no scooping, no bucket carrying.
The telescopic aluminum handle adjusts in length to match your height - extended for tall players or upright walking, shortened for storage and transport. The handle attaches to the basket with a secure threaded connection that disassembles in seconds.
The basket holds approximately [8-15] pickleballs at a time before needing to be emptied into a hopper or tube.

A Note on Use
The Plukk is designed to make ball collection faster and easier — not effortless. It still requires walking the court and pressing the basket onto each ball individually. For high-volume training (50+ balls per session), pair it with the Fjara Trener ball hopper to store the collected balls.
This is a tool for players and coaches who collect balls regularly. If you only collect a few balls per session, your hands and a bucket will do.
The Fjara Promise
- Free U.S. shipping on orders over $50
- 30-day return window — return it free if it isn't right for you
- Lifetime structural warranty — if the spring mechanism, handle, or basket fails under normal use, we replace it

Returns & Exchange
Returns
Return window: 30 days from delivery
If your purchase isn't right, send it back within 30 days for a full refund. No restocking fees. No questions about why.
Condition requirements
Returned items should arrive in the same condition they were sent - unused or only lightly tested. Paddles that have been used in competitive play, show signs of impact wear, or have been modified (custom grip, edge guard alterations) are not eligible for return.
Light test use is fine. We understand pickleball paddles need to be felt before they're committed to. A few hits in your driveway or local court won't disqualify a return.
How to return
Email us at info@fjarasports.com with your order number and a brief note about the return. We'll send you a prepaid return label within one business day. Drop the package at any USPS, UPS, or FedEx location - whichever is convenient.
Return shipping is free for U.S. customers. We cover the cost of getting the product back to us.
Refunds
Refund processing: Within 10 business days
Once we receive your return, we inspect the item and process the refund within 10 business days. Refunds go back to the original payment method - Visa to Visa, PayPal to PayPal, Klarna to Klarna.
Most refunds appear in your account within 3–7 business days after we process them, though some banks take longer to post pending transactions.
Partial refunds
If a returned item shows wear beyond light test use, we may issue a partial refund proportional to the condition. We'll always email you before issuing a partial refund — never as a surprise.
Exchanges
We don't process exchanges automatically. If you want a different paddle, colorway, or size, return the original for a full refund and place a new order separately. This is faster than a traditional exchange and gives you the chance to use any current promotions on the new order.
Order Tracking
Every order receives a tracking number by email the moment your package leaves the warehouse. Click the link in the email to follow your package across the country in real time.
If your tracking hasn't updated in more than 3 business days, email us. Carrier delays happen, but extended silence usually means something needs attention. We'll investigate and get you answers.
Lost or Damaged Packages
If your package arrives damaged
Take photos of the packaging and the product before unpacking further. Email us at info@fjarasports.com with the photos and your order number. We'll arrange a replacement immediately — no need to return the damaged item first.
If your package goes missing in transit
If tracking shows "delivered" but your package isn't at your door, check with neighbors, building managers, and household members first. Most "missing" packages turn up within 24 hours.
If 48 hours pass and the package hasn't appeared, email us. We'll file a carrier claim and either replace your order or issue a full refund. You won't be left in the middle of a carrier dispute.

FAQ
Do I need to break in my new paddle?
Not in the traditional sense. Thermoformed carbon paddles don't soften or change feel the way some older constructions did. What changes is you.
The first few sessions with a new paddle are about your hands learning the sweet spot, the swing weight, the response off the face. Most players feel locked in by session three or four. Hit drills, not games, for the first hour. Dink rallies are the fastest way to learn a paddle — you'll feel exactly where the face is most consistent.
The paddle you take home today is the paddle you'll have in a year. It's already broken in. You're the variable.
What is thermoformed construction?
A standard pickleball paddle is built by gluing the face, core, and edge together as separate pieces. A thermoformed paddle is built as a single sealed unit — the carbon face wraps around the polypropylene core under heat and pressure, then the edge is fused rather than glued.
The result is a stiffer, more responsive paddle with a larger sweet spot and a consistent feel from center to edge. You'll feel it most on off-center hits — where a glued paddle goes dead, a thermoformed one still has life.
It's the construction the top brands have moved to over the past two years. It's the only construction we build.
How much spin can the T700 carbon face generate?
A lot. T700 raw carbon is the gritty, textured surface you see on every spin-first paddle on tour right now. Tested on a standard spin meter, our Stillvann face produces 2,200–2,400 RPM on a clean topspin drive — well within tournament-paddle range and noticeably above molded fiberglass faces.
That said, spin is a player skill before it's a paddle spec. The face gives you the friction. The contact angle and follow-through do the rest. A good carbon face won't make a flat hitter spin the ball. It will reward the player who already knows how.
How do I clean and care for my paddle?
Wipe the face with a damp microfiber cloth after long sessions — sweat, sunscreen, and ball residue dull the carbon texture and reduce spin over time. For deeper cleaning, a paddle eraser or melamine sponge restores the gritty surface.
Don't use solvents, alcohol, or abrasive scrubbers. Don't leave the paddle in a hot car — heat softens the polypropylene core and can warp the face. Store it in a paddle cover or bag, not loose where zippers and edges can chip the bevel.
Re-grip when the wrap loses tack. Most players replace overgrips every three to six months depending on play frequency.
What does sustainability mean to Fjara?
Mostly, it means we don't replace the catalog every six months. The biggest environmental cost of pickleball gear isn't the materials — it's the cycle. New paddle every season, new bag every year, last year's gear in a landfill.
We design products to outlast that cycle. The Stillvann you buy this year is the same paddle we'll be selling in three years. Same spec, same shape, same name. When something needs to be improved, we improve it. We don't relaunch it.
Where it makes sense we use recycled materials — our bags are built from 600D recycled polyester, and our packaging is unbleached cardboard with no plastic inserts. But the real work is in the longevity. A paddle you keep is worth more than any spec sheet.
What does the Fjara warranty cover?
Twelve months from purchase, against manufacturing defects — delamination of the face, core failure, edge separation, or any structural issue not caused by impact damage. If your paddle fails under normal play within the first year, we replace it.
What's not covered: cracks from paddle clashes, edge chips from court contact, grip wear, or surface dulling from heavy use. These are normal wear-and-tear on any paddle and aren't unique to Fjara.
To file a claim, email us at info@fjarasports.com with your order number and a photo of the issue. We respond within one business day and ship replacements within three.
