GBX

The GBX paddle from Gearbox Pickleball eschews their SST technology in favor of a more traditional construction, mating a Toray T700 raw carbon fiber face to a 16mm (0.63") thick polymer honeycomb core to produce a control- and spin-oriented paddle that many of today's top pickleball players demand. Power, to the degree the GBX summons it, comes from the 5.5" long molded handle, 16.5" overall length, and hefty 8.5 oz. weight creating leverage and swing weight to drive and smash when opportunities arise. Delivering precise control is foremost where the GBX shines, however. It's thick, it's soft, and the rough carbon fiber face with "Hyperspin Technology" can spin a ball on your cut serves and slice returns as well as just about any other paddle on the market. Hyperspin, produced by a laser-engraved mold, means the face itself is textured rather than Gearbox applying a textured coating on top of the face. This ensures the texture lasts longer than the coatings used by other manufacturers.

The Gearbox GBX paddle sets itself apart from other 16mm thick poly core paddles by using a high-density honeycomb. The cells are just 7mm in diameter, which translates to more cells, a denser core, and an incredibly solid feel pretty much from edge to edge. This thick-and-dense core design creates a heavier 8.5 oz. overall weight, controlled in your palm via a 4.0" circumference handle which arrives wrapped in Gearbox's popular smooth black grip.

If you are an avid pickleball player who is looking to dominate matches and win more tournaments, then put serious consideration into the feature-packed GBX 16mm Honeycomb Paddle from Gearbox Pickleball. This paddle leverages multiple control elements, then balances them out with enough power elements, to create a truly fantastic elongated all-court pickleball paddle.

Actual grip sizes may vary up to 1/8"
