VERSIX Vector XL Genie Bouchard Signature Pickleball Paddle

Designed in conjunction with tennis pro Genie Bouchard, the VERSIX Vector GB Pickleball Paddle boasts an elongated shape and thermoformed construction to help players with a tennis background thrive on a pickleball court. We like how the overall 16.5” length offers a familiar feel while creating a reliably extended 10.75” by 7.5” T700 Raw Carbon Fiber hitting surface. This trusted surface uses natural carbon fiber texture and impressive rigidity to grip the ball as it dwells on the square face, allowing you to directly take your spinning serves and clever cut shots from the tennis court to the pickleball court.

To further fill Genie, us, and players everywhere with confidence on the court, the VERSIX Vector GB Raw Pickleball Paddle relies on a long 5.75” handle with a 4 1/4” diameter and sharp high hip angles to leave room for those two hand backhands that we trust so much. Whether we are ripping backhands, forehands, or slams, the 15mm polypropylene honeycomb core will provide a soft feel, ample feedback, and plenty of forgiveness on off center strikes. A head heavy balance point completes the tennis racquet-like feel, while the thermoformed construction ensures durability and longevity.

Lightweight vs. Standard Weight

The Vector was designed and optimized for players transitioning from tennis or those interested in more leverage and power potential without sacrificing the size of the sweet spot, and weight distribution is the largest contributing factor.

Most players should consider the standard weight model first as it will offer more forgiveness and higher performance out of the box.

Those sensitive to higher weights will appreciate the extreme maneuverability of the lightweight model, but note that weight modifications may be needed to get the right balance and performance out of the paddle for their needs.
