Overview
The G-Pro combines a T700 raw carbon fiber face with a 16mm Power Polymer Core. Its 8-ounce weight sits in a middle ground: light enough for quick swings, while still giving your shots a solid feel. The 16mm core also supports the control-focused character reviewers describe.
At 16.42 inches long and 7.48 inches wide, this is a long, slightly narrow shape. That gives you useful reach on stretched-out shots and more leverage on serves and drives. The 5.2-inch handle and 4.25-inch grip circumference give you a defined handle size to check against your hand and preferred grip. The paddle is USA Pickleball approved.
Play style
The G-Pro fits an aggressive, spin-oriented game. Reviewers praise its high spin, precise placement, and expanded sweet spot. The raw carbon fiber face should appeal if you shape serves, returns, and drives rather than relying only on flat contact.
Its 16mm core and reported control make it suitable for mixing pace with softer shots. You can use the extra length for baseline drives and reach, then rely on the control-focused build when moving forward. If you prefer a very quick, compact paddle for constant hand battles, the elongated shape may feel less natural.
Best for
- Players who want more spin on serves, returns, and drives
- Baseline players who value extra reach and leverage
- Players making a first upgrade to a carbon fiber paddle
- Players who want control without dropping to a very light paddle
Look elsewhere if
- Players who prefer a short, wide shape for fast kitchen exchanges
- Players who need an especially light paddle for faster hand speed
- Players whose hand does not fit a 4.25-inch grip comfortably
- Players who want a small grip for frequent wrist action
Strengths
- T700 raw carbon fiber face is linked by reviewers to high spin and durability
- 16mm Power Polymer Core supports the paddle's control-focused feel
- 8-ounce weight balances maneuverability with a substantial impact feel
- 16.42-inch elongated shape adds reach for baseline shots and stretched returns
- Reviewers praise its precise placement and expanded sweet spot
Things to consider
- The elongated shape may feel less quick than a shorter paddle during rapid kitchen exchanges
- An 8-ounce paddle may feel too substantial if you strongly prefer ultralight equipment
- The 4.25-inch grip circumference may not suit smaller hands
- The 5.2-inch handle is worth checking if you use a two-handed backhand
- The narrower 7.48-inch width gives reach, but may offer less lateral coverage than a wider shape
