Verdicts
Gearbox GX2 Integra XL
Gearbox's solid-span construction removes the traditional honeycomb core, which is why the GX2 feels dense and quiet where thermoformed rivals feel hollow and loud.
JOOLA Hyperion C2 CFS 16
Simone Jardim's signature Hyperion is the softest-launching elongated JOOLA still in wide distribution, and it is now priced like a mid-tier paddle.
