Gearbox Pro Ultimate Elongated 16mm Carbon Fiber Pickleball Paddle
Designed for all-court prowess, the Gearbox Pro Ultimate Elongated 16mm Pickleball Paddle leans on modern engineering and ground-breaking technology to effectively bridge the gap between a power and a control paddle. At the heart of this performance is the 16mm SSTCore. Now famous, this core suspends vertical carbon fiber ribs along the length of the paddle to return energy to the ball, broaden the sweet spot, and provide a smooth feel. Smart Dampen foam technology around this core promotes plow through and a softer cushioned feel. Redefined Power Matrix technology ties all of these features together to optimize power and promote control.
Right out of the box we were impressed by the core technology of the Gearbox Pro Ultimate Elongated 16mm Pickleball Paddle. Once we played more, we were blown away by how Toray T700 Carbon Fiber hitting surface with TXR Grip Technology made this paddle play even better. Measuring in at 11” by 7.375” this rigid face offers impressive dwell time, above average twist weight, and enough grit to hit shots with a bamboozling amount of spin. Further details like Quiet Tech Sound Technology, an extended 5.5” handle, and Flexplay technology allow us to play to our peak on a daily basis.
