What Our Paddle Lab
Experts Say

The Paddletek Bantam TKO-C 12.7mm Carbon Fiber Pickleball Paddle offers a dynamic exit velocity, heavy swing weight, and high twist weight. With a peak exit velocity of 37.82 MPH, it provides players with incredible performance at an above-average exit velocity for paddles that we have tested. Its consistency rating of 3.83 standard deviation reflects dependable performance across the paddle face, supporting repeatable and confident shot execution. A balance point of 9.5 inches is going to be more weighted towards the end, creating a slightly top-heavy feel. The twist weight of 30.99 oz·in² contributes to excellent stability on off-center hits, helping the paddle maintain a square face and minimize deflection during play. With a spin rate of 1219.71 RPM, the Bantam TKO-C allows players to shape shots precisely and apply controlled spin as needed. Finally, its swing weight of 911.32 oz·in² is going to be very heavy to swing, but if you can generate the swing, you will see the results. This paddle would be great for players who are used to racquet sports and can generate the swing speed able to create the performance.

Great paddle so far Lisa Intermediate

Pros: Helped increase my power, lightweight, great surface for spins

Cons: Grip is a smidge small so I may need to rewrap. Can't rate durability yet because it has only been a week but the app forces it

Solid All Around Choice KG Professional

Pros: Power, Power and more Power! Wow! Surprisingly good touch for a 12mm paddle A superb defensive paddle. Don't have to do much on resets and counters are deadly with it Power on my serve is noticeable Handle is the perfect length for me. Even enough room for a twoey

Cons: Can be a bit poppy when playing with a faster ball (Dura, Vulcan etc.) It will take some getting used to. I would suggest drilling for a few weeks with it Stock grip is very average. I put a PickleSkins overgrip on. Best in the game!

Complete Disappointment James Reed Intermediate

Pros: Only Pro I can muster is the length and shape.

Cons: This paddle I thought would be a longer version of the ALW paddle with its power and pop. Couldn’t be more wrong. This paddle has an extremely small sweet spot and feels dead when you make contact. The feel is absent which made dinks inconsistent. The handle shape is more square, much different than the ALW. I immediately went back to my ALW and will continue to use that until I can find a longer paddle with the same pop and feel.
