The Bantam TKO-CX is a collaborative effort between elite professional, Christian Alshon and Paddletek. This high performance offering utilizes an elongated 16.5 inch overall length and extended 5.75 inch handle. Besides the extra reach and inherent power longer paddles afford, the Bantam TKO-CX delivers more game controlling power through the combination of Paddletek s Bantam PolyCore with Quick Response Technology along with a base layer of Glass Epoxy on either side and comes in two widths, 12.7mm and 14.3 mm. In addition an outer ply of PT-700 unidirectional Raw Carbon Fiber graces the TKO-CX s surfaces, which renders incredible spin potential along with a crisp, predictable feel at contact of the ball. Paddletek's Edge Guard technology not only protects the paddle from court abrasions but also functions as a perimeter weighting system which increases paddle stability and enhances the size of the TKO-CX s sweet spot. The TKO-CX leans towards easy power and access to spin from anywhere in the court with enough precision to switch gears and absorb pace near the NVZ. Regardless of whether you play more doubles or singles the Paddletek Bantam TKO-CX is a world class paddle choice for intermediate to advanced all-court specialists.
