Forgiving Power & Maximum Spin

PT-700 raw carbon face with Bantam QRT polymer core and expanded sweet spot for explosive drives, elite spin, and versatile all-court performance

Paddletek Bantam EXL-C 12.7mm Pickleball Paddle

The Bantam EXL-C stands out as a high-performance pickleball paddle engineered for players seeking an ideal blend of power, spin, and forgiveness. Building on a proven legacy as a fresh evolution of one of the most accomplished designs in the sport, this 12.7 mm model pairs advanced materials with a versatile light-to-medium weight range of 7.6 to 8.0 ounces. Its standard shape measures 15.625 inches by 7.75 inches with a 5.25-inch handle, delivering balanced handling that suits serious competitors who demand reliability across all areas of the court.

At the heart of the paddle is the PT-700 unidirectional raw carbon fiber face, crafted from Toray 700 material specifically to maximize spin potential on every shot. This surface works in harmony with the more forgiving Bantam core to produce a responsive feel that grants both explosive power and precise control. Performance-minded athletes will appreciate how this combination unlocks consistent spin generation while maintaining the flexibility needed for nuanced play, whether driving deep balls or executing delicate dinks.

Supporting this face is the Bantam Quick Response Technology polymer core, recognized as the brand’s most powerful core system. It activates progressively and reliably in response to swing energy, ensuring power builds naturally without sacrificing touch. The PT-07 Matrix Stabilization Layer further enhances this by optimizing core activation and power transfer, while the Carbon Steel Twist Weight and Balance System expands the sweet spot and improves consistency on off-center hits. Together, these elements create a large, forgiving sweet spot that elevates overall control.

Rounding out the design is the Shot Protection Edge Guard System, a shock-absorbing perimeter that reduces vibration and protects the paddle during intense rallies. With a swing weight of 103.4 and twist weight of 6.51, the EXL-C offers moderate maneuverability paired with stable yet flexible characteristics, positioning it as an all-court option that leans toward power without compromising feel. This paddle delivers a refined, versatile tool for players ready to elevate their game with elite-level performance.
