Gearbox GX2 Integra XL 16mm Pickleball Paddle Review
MATT'S VERDICT
The GX2 Integra XL is the most versatile shape in the GX2 line. Swing weight lands in the middle of the three GX2 builds (not as fast as the Hyper, not as heavy as the Elongated), and that balance shows up across phases of the game.
