Great paddle: I have just started playing pickleball recently, although I have been playing tennis for many years. Since I'm new at this game, I can't compare this paddle to any others. But because I've been playing tennis, I have feel for how a paddle handles. And so far, this paddle is really great!

Better than foam paddles: I have been experimenting with foam paddles lately, and finally went back to a paddletek and remembered how much I love pickleball again. This new shape is the cherry on top, making the paddle playable at a lighter weight. My game just feels great and I am playing my best pickleball again

The GTO-C is a powerful, effective paddle that rewards aggressive play and offers elite spin. For me, it doesn’t do enough to replace the ESQ-C or TKO-C in my paddle bag. I get tons of speed and pop from the former, and strong power and reach from the latter. So, I can only see someone choosing the GTO-C if they really like hybrid shapes. If that’s you, you’ll get a super-powerful hybrid paddle that, once customized, can take your game to the next level.
