Paddletek Bantam GTO-C Pickleball Paddle
Overview
The Bantam GTO-C keeps the classic, loud pop players love but backs it up with smart improvements for modern power play. Its tapered, aerodynamic head shape isn't just for show, it pushes more weight toward the top, giving you extra power without slowing down your swing. That shape also boosts stability and twistweight, so you stay confident even on off-center hits.
The raw carbon face grips the ball for spin-heavy drives and controlled drops, while the overall balance keeps the swing weight right where power players want it - strong but fast in hand battles. Choose the 12.7 mm core for extra pop and power off the face, or go with the 14.3 mm for a bit more control and forgiveness when you want to slow things down. Made in the USA with the consistent quality Paddletek is known for.
