Paddletek BANTAM ESQ-C Pickleball Paddle

The Bantam ESQ-C was designed in collaboration with pickleball pro, Andrea Koop, to provide a combination of power, spin, and forgiveness. PT-700 unidirectional RAW carbon fiber is combined with our more forgiving 14.3mm Bantam core to give serious players controllable power and spin capability. A 5 1⁄2” handle reduces wind drag and allows for a two-handed backhand, while a large, consistent sweet spot adds finesse to every shot. DISCLAIMER: The Bantam ESQ-C (Esquire) will not be held liable for any distress incurred by your opponent. Court is in session. 

Weight specifications will be within 1/10th of an ounce.

Aurora and Riptide are are being discontinued. Only available while supplies last.
