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 Vision CGS 16
The friendliest paddle JOOLA sells. Standard shape, 107 swing weight and forgiveness 88 make it the natural first premium paddle for a 3.0 player.
