Gaba Gold Paddle Technology

  • Kevlar: The Power of the Future

    We’re pioneering the use of Kevlar in pickleball paddles because the future of the sport demands more power. This high-strength material, widely used in aerospace and military applications, delivers explosive energy transfer, enhanced durability, and superior feel. When you step on the court with the Gaba Gold, you’ll feel the difference.

  • Hot Mold Technology: Next-Level Precision

    The Gaba Gold is manufactured using hot mold technology, a more advanced and costly process that ensures a consistent paddle face from edge to edge. This means more reliable ball response, better control, and no dead spots. Whether you're executing a delicate drop shot or a powerful drive, you’ll get the same premium performance across the entire face.

  • Thermoformed for Strength and Stability

    By utilizing a thermoformed design, we enhance the paddle’s structural integrity, creating a solid, durable frame that resists flexing and increases stability. This cutting-edge approach allows for a more responsive feel and heightened power without sacrificing control.

Extended Handle: Power & Reach

The Gaba Rogue and Gold feature an extended handle, catering to players who love two-handed backhands or simply want more leverage and reach. With this ergonomic design, you’ll experience enhanced comfort, improved maneuverability, and better shot versatility.

Why Choose an Extended Handle Pickleball Paddle?

  • 1. Improve Two-Handed Backhands

    The extra length provides more space for a comfortable two-handed grip, enhancing control and power.

  • 2. Increased Reach

    A longer handle extends your overall reach, making it easier to hit balls outside your comfort zone.

  • 3. Tennis-Like Feel

    Players with a tennis background find an extended handle more familiar in terms of grip and playstyle when transitioning from a tennis racket to a pickleball paddle.

  • 4. More Leverage & Power

    The added length generates extra swing leverage, giving your shots more pop and speed.

  • 5. Enhanced Balance & Stability

    Extended handles shift the paddle’s balance, making it feel more stable in hand and improving touch and feel.

Arm-Friendly Paddle for Pickleball Elbow

Tennis (pickleball) elbow shouldn’t keep you off the court. That’s why Gaba’s thermoformed paddle technology is designed to minimize strain on your arm while maximizing power, control, and precision.

Thermoformed Paddle Technology: A Game-Changer for Tennis Elbow

  • Vibration Dampening

    Minimizes impact, reducing stress on your elbow

    Gaba’s thermoforming process fuses the paddle’s edges and core, creating a seamless, shock-absorbing structure that reduces vibration—one of the main causes of pickleball elbow.

  • Larger Sweet Spot

    Enhances playability and reduces mishits

    The advanced construction distributes energy evenly across the face, resulting in a more forgiving sweet spot that reduces off-center hits and strain on your arm, and enhances consistency.

  • Optimized Balance & Stability

    Ensures a secure, strain-free hold

    A thermoformed paddle offers a stable, well-balanced feel, reducing excessive wrist movement and helping prevent further irritation of the tendons.
