Gearbox Pro Fusion: This paddle has an outstanding performance, while giving me power I still have good control. Very happy with it, moved from a Gearbox C14

gearbox pro: This is my second Gearbox Pro paddle. I tried the Elongated one first, sold it, now am on the the shorter version of the Power series. OMG, this paddle has upped my game so much it's ridiculous. Try one and see what I mean.

Gearbox Fusion Pro Power: So, I've became a big fan of Gearbox paddles thanks to pro Jeff Warnick and his use of the GX5, CX11 power paddles. I followed suit when he upgraded to the Fusion Pro Power and it hasn't disappointed me either. It's got great power and I've been able to win a lot of hand battles with little effort. Highly recommended for power players.

Great Paddle but not the best: The paddle is great but I still like my Selkirk better. I bought this because of all the great reviews on power but it was not more powerful than my Selkirk Vanguard Power Air. Its still a great overall paddel.

Two more things!: I'm adding a second review because there were a couple things I forgot to include. 1. I remember hearing in some of the comments that there is a "settling" period where the touch and feel of the paddle changes. I started noticing even more power during the second week of play. 2. The spin on this paddle comes more from how the ball sinks into and is "held" by the paddle rather than from the surface grit. This feels slightly different than my Black Ace paddle because it h

Like a Sports Car Gas Pedal: After getting tennis elbow a year and a half ago I switched to Prokennex paddles, and ended up with the Black Ace for the last 8 months. I loved it, but wished it was slightly less poppy sometimes. This led me to purchasing the Gearbox Pro Power Fusion after watching multiple reviews, reading comments, and engaging with those who had played with them. I was torn between the control and power, and it would still be nice to test them side by side. However, the power fu

paddle: Really good paddle with better than average power and surprisingly good touch and feel when dinking and punch volleys at the net. The only shots I struggled with was resets and drops from the baseline but I'm sure that would change if I decided to keep using the paddle. I like paddles and the paddle that works best for me at this time is the Muvn Gruvn 13S which is a great all-around doubles paddle.

Pro Power Fusion: This paddle had noticeable power for the first several hours of play. After that, the paddle's power was diminished and it no longer plays like the reviews on the internet. The power was lacking and paddle became rather ordinary. The lack of power is disappointing.
