The Facolos EliteX 2.0 Gabe Tardio Edition is a high-performance version inspired by Gabe Tardio's modern playing style. This paddle is designed to provide a balance of power, control, and stability, suitable for the increasingly fast-paced and technically demanding game of pickleball.

A key highlight of this edition is its optimized design and weight distribution system, enhancing stability during every ball contact. The paddle features an AIR SLOT for increased flexibility and ball feel in fast-reaction situations, along with a FACTORY TUNED STABILITY SYSTEM™ — a factory-tuned weight distribution system to ensure balance and minimize vibration during play.

The frame integrates 4 MASS INSERTS: two weight bars at the top of the paddle increase hitting power and enlarge the sweet spot, while two bars on the sides of the frame enhance torsional stability (twist weight), reducing paddle face rotation on off-center hits. Available in two color options: pink and green trim.

HIGHLIGHTED TECHNOLOGIES

DYNAMIC SHAPE — Optimized Paddle Face Design

The paddle face is widened, and the sweet spot is adjusted closer to the handle, in line with Gabe Tardio's playing style. This allows for quick reactions in high-speed rallies, particularly effective for flicks, counters, and fast-hand battles at the kitchen.

CARBON TRUEGRIT™ TORAY T700 — Superior Spin

T700 carbon fiber combined with a TrueGrit™ textured surface increases friction upon ball contact, aiding in generating better spin for topspins, slices, or deep spin drives, while maintaining clear ball control feel.

AVF TECH™ — Vibration Absorption

The dampening foam layer absorbs vibrations during ball impact, providing a more solid and stable feel. Particularly useful in defensive blocks, quick counter-attacks, or continuous ball handling.

ELASTIC FOAM™ — Directional Control

The elastic core extends the ball's contact time with the paddle face, increasing directional control and accuracy. Excellent support for dinks, drops, and resets.

ELSFOAM™ CORE — Ball Hug, Vibration Reduction

The combined structure of elastic foam and elastic groove system enhances the "ball-hugging" feel, reduces vibration, and maintains stability during high-speed play. This allows for powerful drives with deep spin while ensuring solidity in defensive situations.

— Intermediate to advanced players seeking a high-performance paddle in a fast-paced competitive environment.
— Players focused on control and quick reactions: dinks, resets, blocks, counters.
— Players with a fast-hand battle style who need quick response and stability in high-pressure situations.
