CX11E Control 7.8oz

The Gearbox CX11E Control 7.8oz is an elongated paddle with an 11mm carbon fiber core and a carbon fiber face. Its standard shape, combined with the lightweight 7.8oz weight and low swing weight of 102, suggests maneuverability. The 5.5-inch grip length is typical for most paddles. The thin core may provide more power than thicker cores, while the carbon fiber materials are often associated with control and a stiffer feel. This combination could offer a balance between power and control, potentially appealing to a wide range of players, from intermediate to advanced, seeking a lighter paddle. The low twist weight of 4.65 might make the paddle susceptible to twisting on off-center hits. The spin rating is 4.6 out of 10, placing it in the 21st percentile. While the carbon fiber face may offer good control, the lower spin rating suggests it may not generate as much spin as some other paddles.
