As the thicker and more controllable of the two paddles designed in conjunction with Andrea Koop, the Paddletek Bantam ESQ-C 14.3mm Pickleball Paddle promises to bring precision and spin with enough pop to hang with any opponent. More of an all-court paddle than a pure control tool, this 7.7-ounce standard shape brings a well-trusted 14.3mm core to the table. This core, now heavily featured across Paddletek’s offerings, cushions for a smooth feel, eats up vibrations, adds dwell time, expands the sweet spot, and even uses Quick Response technology to add the pop that allows us to call this an all-court paddle.
The Paddletek Bantam ESQ-C 14.3mm Pickleball Paddle runs with the performance of the Bantam core by adding a familiar PT-700 Unidirectional RAW Carbon Fiber hitting surface. Stretching 8” wide, this hitting surface provides rigidity for dwell time, natural texture for spin, and crisp feel for confidence that avid players demand. Toss in the 5.5” handle that helps us reach tricky dinks while cutting down on drag to promote swing speed and we have a paddle we know we can dominate with.
Actual grip sizes may vary up to 1/8"
