Widebody16mmNo Gen

The Gearbox GX2 Hyper is a 16 mm widebody pickleball paddle. It generates average spin (51th percentile) with low power and below-average pop. It has a light, maneuverable swing weight built for quick hands at the net, plus above-average twist weight for strong off-center forgiveness. Overall it's a control-oriented profile that trades raw power for touch and placement.
