SSTCore™Technology

The heart of the Pro Series is Gearbox’s acclaimed Patent (No.US 10,377,093) Solid Span Technology(SST). SSTCore™ is composed of multiple carbon fiber ribs that run parallel to one another and alongthe length of the paddle face to create the most advanced core in pickleball. This one-of-a-kind corecreates a sophisticated and efficient energy-transfer system that is engineered to effectively capture andamplify energy for an explosive and responsive performance. With SSTCore™, players experienceunparalleled power, control, precision and durability, making each shot a dynamic display of Gearbox’scommitment to innovation. Energy in—performance out.

NEW Redefined Power Matrix

Explosive Power | On Demand

The patent-pending Power Matrix enhances SSTCore’senergy transfer, boosting power efficiency fromthe core to the face to deliver unmatched explosive power on demand. It maximizes energy outputbetween the core, paddle frame, and handle, enabling significant dwell time and efficient control of energyfrom the core to the paddle face. This construction optimizes power, enhances controlled play, andprovides stability. The Power Matrix stores and releases more energy upon ball impact, resulting ingreater force and accuracy, significantly improving the paddle’s overall performance for a powerful,precise, and responsive playing experience.

TXR Surface Grip Technology

The Pro Series redefines paddle engineering with a first-of-its-kind cured textured ply on internallypressurized molded paddles. Gearbox TXRSurface Grip Technology is a pioneering advancement inpickleball paddle design, marking the first successful application of a cured textured ply on internallypressurized molded paddles. This groundbreaking technology enhances player experience by amplifyingfeel, spin, and sweet spot dynamics through optimized deflection and the interaction of our SSTCore™Technology, now finely segmented. The textured surface ply provides unmatched tactile feedback,offering players precise control and spin manipulation, while an expanded sweet spot ensures consistent and powerful shots, even on off-center hits. Gearbox continues to lead the industry with innovations thatredefine the possibilities of pickleball paddle design.
