Let me add one thing - I think if you like this paddle, it's definitely worth the money! I have thoroughly enjoyed my time using the PPE! :)

I just got the paddle and immediately noticed the dwell time at the kitchen line. The weird thing is that it’s a power paddle, but with some lead tape I have seen the most consistent dinks and resets out of any paddle I’ve used in a very long time. Excited to keep playing with it!
@jordanplayspickle

Yeah, adding lead was a huge difference! Once I got the setup figured out, I loved the feeling and feedback I had dinking at the line! Crazy to have such good control and power in the same paddle - Thanks for your comment!

If I was to guess, I’m betting they’re going to try to combine all the things people have been asking for (Kevlar mix, longer handle, more power) and deliver a knockout punch soon 🙏

No clue! Hahah - my only thought is maybe they are allowing it as a "top-end" of what the power restriction is? It's a great paddle, but I agree that based on technology I expected an announcement over the last month or something!

In 2024 The Proton $280, Volair Mach 2 Forza $179 all have higher speed ratings and RMP ratings then the 2023 Gearbox Pro Power $274, with better control then the gearbox. More paddles on the way in the next two months will beat out last years paddles.
@jordanplayspickle
@jordanplayspickle 3 месяца назад
Yeah, there are definitely higher stat paddels out there - I really want to try the Proton! Especially since it's based here in PHX. My reasoning with keeping the gearbox as my main is I love the feeling, but I'm with you, I think in the next few months there will be something that will beat it out and have a similar response. It's a great time to be a fan of the sport! Thanks for the comment!

What the Paddle cost should not matter. what should matter only is how the paddle performs and feels. if you want a cheap paddle go buy one. I am sick and tired of people crying about the cost of the Gearbox Pro Power. it is a great paddle at $275.00 And the condition of your paddle is on you for you not protecting it enough in the first place with some kind of tape or enough tape if your damage is caused by you scraping it on the ground accidentally when hitting the ball. what do you expect carbon fiber to do if that is the case. I recommend this paddle without reservations to anyone and everyone who wants a great paddle and anyone who does not use this paddle is at a great disadvantage based on how good this paddle performs and feels. And yes there is a break in period because the carbon fiber is stiff when new. My first one took 2 months of using it 3 or 4 times a week for 3 hours before my first one was broken in. I like the paddle so much I bought another one and am in the process of breaking it and I switch back and forth between the two with both paddles having different lead tape weights on them for different purposes. and it is only controversial because the wrong people are reviewing this paddle who do not know what a great paddle is.

I agree with you on this, but I have noticed how the same paddle of different players sound so different than mine. Seems that consistency of the manufacturing is not that great. That said I think I got a good one. Also the cost is high to recover the cost of the patents.

Yes, you're right the paddle is great, folks always tell me that I have a HOT paddle. However, for $275, paddles should last longer than 3months of use 92-100hrs of gameplay. And I am not talking about misuse. The technology really needs to improve, the durability mitigating the wear. I can buy an expensive Tennis racquet, I can take it in and get it restrung. Not only that, there is no way to recycle these paddles or those balls.
