Paddletek Bantam EXL-C

By The Kitchen Team | Sep 18, 2026

Our take on the Paddletek Bantam EXL-C

This is one of the most maneuverable paddles on the market, with a 104 swingweight. That makes it very whippy through the hitting zone, allowing players to add a ton of spin on flicks out of the air as well as drives and drops from the baseline.
