The Paddletek Bantam TKO-CX pickleball paddle (XL handle) was designed in conjunction with top pickleball pro, Christian Alshon, to provide a combination of power, spin, and reach. PT-700 unidirectional RAW carbon fiber is combined with our legendary 12.7mm Bantam core to give serious players max power and spin capability. A 5 3⁄4” handle reduces wind drag and allows for a two-handed backhand, while a 16 1⁄2 ” overall paddle length increases speed at the point of contact—exponentially increasing power with every hit.
