Verdicts
CRBN 2X TruFoam Genesis
The widest sweet spot CRBN has produced. Forgiveness 90, sweet spot 90 and control 92 make it the softest-landing tournament paddle we have tested.
Gearbox Pro Ultimate Elongated 16
Gearbox's rib-suspended SSTCore feels unlike any honeycomb paddle: firmer through contact, quieter on resets, and unusually consistent shot to shot. You pay $275 for that engineering.
