Paddletek Bantam ALW-C Pickleball Paddle
Overview
Delivering world-class paddle performance with all-court versatility Paddletek introduces the Bantam ALW-C! The world’s number one player in all disciplines (doubles, singles, and mixed) Anna Leigh Waters, along with Paddletek, developed a paddle that helps her maintain that status and is also versatile enough to benefit any level of skill or style of play. Featuring a High Grade Polymer Composite Honeycomb core and PT-700 Raw Carbon Fiber surface, the paddle is available in two widths, 12.7 mm for max power and 14.3 for max control both in spin-friendly packages. The Bantam ALW-C paddles have a slightly more extended 5.25 inch handle allowing enough room to control points using one or two hands. Designed and constructed to comfortably absorb pace at the kitchen and still be lively enough to easily put away high balls or blast away from the baseline, the Paddletek Bantam ALW-C offers all that and more.
Note: This 2024 paddle has slightly different specs including length and grip length.
