In July of 2026, Gearbox Sports announced their newest product line of racquetball racquets. This line of racquets is labelled the AXS Series. https://gearboxsports.com/pages/axs-series
Pre-orders for the racquets opened up on July 27th, 2026.
Delivery for the racquets is expected to start on August 11, 2026.
With this release, Gearbox took the lead in identifying which of their sponsored players will be using each model/shape/weight. Not all previously sponsored or currently sponsored players were included in that release although it is known that many additional players have been using the AXS Series at the last few pro stops and international competitions.
Here are all of the graphics included on the pre-order launch date.
Here are the Facebook Posts from July 27th that showed each of the players and their chosen racquet.
“Simply incredible! From the very first shot, this racquet inspires confidence and lets you play freely.”
“This racquet delivers the perfect balance of control and power,everything I was looking for.”
“From the moment I picked it up, this AXS racquet felt like a natural extension of my arm. The control is exceptional, the feel is unmatched, and it gives me the confidence to play aggressively while staying precise.”
“The honest truth, it’s a badass racquet. This is the best racquet your hands will ever touch.”
“The new AXS racquet gives me more confidence and stability, allowing me to take more aggressive shots because I can place the ball more accurately. Winning my 2nd IRT title with this racquet was no coincidence, and I’m incredibly excited about what Gearbox has created.”
