Paddletek Bantam GTO-C 14.3mm Pickleball Paddle

Paddletek Bantam GTO-C 14.3mm Pickleball Paddle

The Paddletek Bantam GTO-C 14.3mm Pickleball Paddle was built for players who
thrive on control, precision, and power—all in one perfectly balanced frame. Designed in
the USA and cold-pressed for consistency, this high-performance paddle is the product
of relentless testing, fine-tuning, and feedback from competitive athletes who demand
more from every swing.

At first glance, the GTO-C’s aerodynamic hybrid shape sets it apart. The tapered profile
reduces drag, allowing you to accelerate through the ball with speed and confidence,
while its head-biased balance point generates explosive power when you need to
dictate play. Whether you’re countering at the kitchen or driving from the baseline, the
GTO-C’s expanded sweet spot and balanced weight distribution ensure clean contact
and effortless stability on every strike.

Beneath its refined exterior lies advanced technology that defines the Bantam series.
The PT-700 unidirectional raw carbon fiber face—crafted from Toray T700
material—delivers a crisp feel and exceptional spin potential, giving players the
precision to shape every shot. Beneath that surface, the PT-07 Matrix Stabilization
Layer works in harmony with the Bantam Quick Response Technology (QRT) polymer
core, optimizing energy transfer to maximize both touch and pop. The result is a paddle
that activates exactly when you do—reacting to your motion for consistent power
without sacrificing finesse.

The 14.3mm cold-pressed core brings an added layer of stability and softness to the
GTO-C’s bold personality. This thicker design helps absorb shock and dampen vibration
for a smoother feel on contact, keeping you comfortable through long rallies and intense
exchanges. Supporting it all is the Carbon Steel Twist Weight & Balance System, which
expands the sweet spot and enhances forgiveness on off-center hits, giving you a
steadier performance no matter where the ball lands on your face.

Every detail of the GTO-C reflects Paddletek’s dedication to craftsmanship. The Shot
Protection Edge Guard System shields your paddle from impact and reduces vibration,
while the 5.5-inch handle and 4.25-inch grip provide a confident, comfortable
hold—ideal for two-handed backhands and quick net reactions. Measuring 16.25 inches
long and 7.75 inches wide, this paddle finds the sweet intersection of reach, balance,
and maneuverability.

Weighing between 7.8 and 8.1 ounces, the GTO-C plays with a commanding presence
yet remains fast in the hand. Its combination of aerodynamic design, balanced swing
weight, and cold-pressed precision make it the go-to choice for players who like to set
the tempo, not just keep up with it.

Every paddle in the GTO line carries Paddletek’s signature commitment to
quality—crafted, tested, and cold-pressed in the USA. Whether you’re an experienced
competitor or an advancing player ready to elevate your game, the Bantam GTO-C
14.3mm gives you the confidence to play boldly, control the pace, and dominate every
rally.
