Verdicts
Gearbox Pro Power Elongated
The coreless construction produces the hardest, most direct feel in the database. It is a specialist's tool, not a general recommendation.
Paddletek Bantam ALW-C 14
The lightweight Bantam. At 7.7 oz it is one of the fastest paddles in the database through hands battles, and Paddletek's core keeps the feel soft rather than tinny.
