Gear Box CX14 paddle: I've tried a few paddles from Pickleball Central. This one I'm not returning. I really like the weight and control I have with the CX14.

A great paddle: I wasn’t happy with my game using a Paddletek Tempest Wave Pro. So I decided to try a very different paddle. Wow! The CX14E changed my game the moment I started using it. I absolutely love my game with this paddle! I have such better control, spin and power. I also dink a lot better with this paddle. It’s balanced and great all around and my level of play has increased since using the CX14E

CX14 ultimate power: I loved this paddle but I needed more control than power. If I was a man I would definitely want the Ultimate. Or a stronger woman than me, haha there ARE those! So I got the CX-14E for longer length and control, it's a lighter paddle and I can react faster at those close fast shots. Highly recommend both!!

Great for resets yet still has plenty of power: Great pickleball paddle, resets with it are so easy and it somehow still has plenty of power to put the ball away. Incredible build and won't break easily like other paddles.

Great paddle!: I bought this about a month ago, got the extended length version. Very plush feel, excellent power, light swing weight at 8.5 ounces, feels lighter. Recommend highly

Best paddle: This paddle literally has it all. I had the Selkirk power air and that paddle was great and had lots of power, if you could hit the sweet spot. It just had a very small sweet spot. The gearbox has a very generous and forgiving sweet spot. This paddle plays amazing. It feels a bit soft but you have all the power in the world with it too. It doesn’t feel as soft as the BJ Hyperion. The cx14 ultimate power lives up to its name. Don’t doubt this paddle just because you don’t see pr
