FAQS

What should I consider when choosing my first padel racket?

When selecting your first padel racket, focus on your skill level, racket shape (round for control, diamond for power, teardrop for balance), weight, sweet spot, and materials. Beginners benefit from lighter, round rackets with a large sweet spot.

How do I know which padel racket is right for my playing style?

If you play defensively, look for round-shaped rackets for better control. Aggressive players may prefer diamond shapes for extra power. Teardrop rackets suit all-rounders with a blend of control and power.

What’s the difference between round, teardrop, and diamond-shaped rackets?

Round rackets offer more control and are ideal for beginners. Teardrop shapes provide a balance of control and power. Diamond shapes deliver maximum power and are best for advanced players.

Does racket weight make a difference?

Yes! Lighter rackets (340–360g) are easier to maneuver and better for beginners or players with arm fatigue. Heavier rackets (365–390g) offer more power but may be harder to control.

Are certain materials better for some players?

Carbon fiber is stiff, powerful, and durable—ideal for advanced players. Fiberglass is softer and more forgiving, which is great for beginners. The core foam (EVA) also affects control and feel.

What balance should I choose in a padel racket?

Low balance provides control and is suitable for beginners. Medium balance offers a mix of control and power. High balance delivers more power and suits aggressive or advanced players.

What's the importance of grip size and handle length?

The right grip size ensures comfort, control, and minimizes injury risk. Most handles are standard length but can be customized with overgrips.
