Speed-X Thermoformed Pickleball Paddle

The quickest paddle in the range. A thermoformed Gen-3 build with a raw T700 carbon face, offered in both core thicknesses and four colours — so a doubles pair can pick the same model in different colours and different thicknesses.

Why players pick this one

• Raw T700 carbon face for spin, with no smooth finish coat to wear through first
• Thermoformed unibody construction, stiffer and better sealed at the edge than cold-pressed builds
• Both 14mm and 16mm cores across every colour, rather than the usual one-thickness-per-colour compromise
• Four colours: Green, Blue, Yellow, Pink

Care

Wipe the raw carbon face after outdoor play — grit left in the texture is what wears spin away. Keep it out of a hot car, and replace the overgrip when it stops feeling tacky.

Good to know

Thermoformed paddles feel firmer and more direct than cold-pressed ones. Coming from a basic starter paddle, expect noticeably less flex at contact.

How we rate this paddle

The power, control, spin, forgiveness and manoeuvrability scores are Pickleball Gear Co.'s own assessment based on the paddle's published construction — core thickness, face material, core type, shape and weight. They are not lab measurements and not player review scores. A thicker core scores higher on control and lower on power; a rougher carbon face scores higher on spin; an elongated shape scores lower on forgiveness than a wide-body.
