Gearbox Pickleball Paddles

Gearbox pickleball paddles are manufactured by a California-based company that was founded by professional racquetball player Rafael Filippini. All Gearbox pickleball paddles are USAPA-approved for tournament play. Gearbox is renowned for making technology-forward pickleball paddles by using their patented Solid Span Technology (or SST). SST is a technique that uses high-strength, unidirectional carbon fiber chambers laid at specific angles and organized section by section to create the core of the paddle (not polypropylene honeycomb, like most pickleball paddles). Gearbox SST paddles are designed with an edgeless frame, which extends the sweet spot and minimizes mis-hits. This technology is now offered in the Gearbox CX14 and Gearbox CX11 collection of paddles. Both collections come in two shapes - quad-shaped face or elongated. If you're looking for a more traditional pickleball paddle that won't break the bank, Gearbox has you covered with that, as well. Their line of GH7+ pickleball paddles feature a 6-ply fiberglass hitting surface for just under $75 MSRP.
