Gearbox GX2 Elongated 16mm CarbonRibCore Pickleball Paddle

As the more powerful of the two paddles in the new GX2 line, the 16.5” Gearbox GX2 Elongated 16mm Pickleball Paddle opens up a world of pop and reach that helps us take the match to our opponent. Packed with progressive technology, this paddle boasts a new 16mm SST 2.0 CarbonRibCore that offers more stability and durability than its honeycomb counterparts, while still providing the dwell time, feel, and expanded sweet spot that we expect from a 16mm paddle. Like its predecessor, the SST 2.0 core achieves this performance through vertically situated carbon rectangles that float in the core to act like the strings on a tennis racquet for a now-proven combination of cushion, spin, and pop.

The 8.0-ounce Gearbox GX2 Elongated 16mm Pickleball Paddle helps us harness the power we can create through its fast swing speed with a 7.375” wide 3K Woven Raw Carbon hitting surface. This lightly woven highly textured surface boosts reactivity while gripping the ball to amplify dwell time and impart spin consistently. The one-piece construction of this paddle allows the 5.5” handle to integrate seamlessly into the paddle so that our two hand back hands are backed up by optimized power transfer, instilling confidence and helping us win more points.

Gearbox paddles are excluded from our 30 day Paddle Test Drive.
