SST 2.0 CarbonRibCore™ Technology
The GX2 Power features Gearbox's revolutionary SST 2.0 CarbonRibCore™, with a NEW Suspended core design that dramatically enhances dwell time to increase power. By separating the core from the frame, the ball stays on the paddle longer, storing and releasing energy quickly for explosive ball speed and dynamic power. This increased contact time maximizes spin, expands the sweet spot, and delivers unmatched precision and control for powerful shots and quick punch volleys.
The carbon fiber rib matrix, face plies, and frame work together to efficiently store and release energy. The internal rib structure has been re-engineered with proprietary technology and fine-tuned to enhance sound quality, vibration, and overall performance, strengthening the player's connection to the paddle. The swing and twist weights are precisely balanced to improve maneuverability, quickness, and stability. This design makes the GX2 Power ultra-fast and forgiving, allowing players to shape their shots with greater spin and accuracy, ensuring consistent performance with every hit.
The Story Behind the GX2 Power
When Gearbox set out to create the GX2 Power, their goal was clear: to create a powerful paddle with incredible control — Mastered Power. True power goes beyond hitting hard — it’s about controlling the energy, having the right feedback, and knowing exactly where the ball is going. Mastered Power is raw dynamic force, where explosive speed meets the precision of fine-tuned control. To achieve this they reconfigured and suspended their CarbonRibCore™ from the frame to increase dwell time, maximize power, and maintain a direct connection between the player and paddle.
Gearbox wanted Mastered Power — smart power that gives players control over every shot, whether it’s a powerful baseline drive, a precise reset, an aggressive dink with spin, a delicate touch dink, or a punch volley. To achieve this, they optimized the internal carbon fiber rib core, adjusting the fiber orientation, fiber density, and foam pressure in each rib module. This fine-tuning enhances feedback, power, and control, creating a paddle that connects with the player and responds precisely to each shot.
Gearbox also reconfigured the swing weight to improve hand speed, while increasing the twist weight for stability. This adjustment creates the perfect balance — giving players a larger sweet spot for consistent power and control, even on off-center hits.
The GX2 Power’s innovations provide explosive power with precise control, all backed by their patented and patent-pending technologies. Along with the reconfigured core, this innovation enhances power transfer, control, and spin. Their suspended core technology adds another level of efficiency, making the GX2 Power versatile enough for every style of play. Their goal with the GX2 Power was to create a paddle that offers dynamic power, precision, spin, and durability, all while adhering to USAPA PBCoR standards. This paddle is more than just performance—it’s a true masterpiece of innovation, built to elevate your game.
GX2 Power Elongated Shape
Explosive Power, Maximum Reach, Exceptional Spin (Suspended Core)
The GX2 Power Elongated shape delivers explosive power from the baseline, utilizing its extended length for optimal leverage. This shape enhances ball control and stability, with a larger sweet spot ensuring consistent performance and extended reach on every shot. The Elongated shape strikes the perfect balance between dynamic power for aggressive drives with heavy topspin and solid agility for mid-court volleys and quick exchanges at the kitchen. It also serves as a seamless transition for tennis players, thanks to its length and familiar grip.
ELONGATED SHAPE BENEFITS:
Maximum power
Better reach, control, and stability
Larger sweet spot for consistency
Ideal for baseline drives and aggressive shots
Quick rolls for enhanced spin
Great for players with a tennis background and two-handed shots
