A racket for every level
The beginner looks for a forgiving racket: a round shape, low balance, soft foam, and glass fibre surface, which forgive off-centre shots and are easy on the arm. The intermediate player moves to a teardrop shape, more versatile and often made of carbon. The advanced and attacking player chooses a diamond shape, head-heavy, like the Nox AT10 Genius Attack or the adidas Metalbone, which provides power for smashes but requires a good technique.

Frequently asked questions
Round or teardrop padel racket?
The round shape, with a wide impact point and low balance, is the most forgiving choice for beginners and for defence. The teardrop shape, more versatile, offers more power for intermediate players.
Fibreglass or carbon: what's the difference?
Fibreglass, being softer, provides a comfortable and forgiving feel, making it suitable for beginners. Carbon, being stiffer, offers precision and power for regular players but requires better technique.
What does twelve K or ten-eight K mean on a padel racket?
This number indicates the number of filaments, in thousands, in each strand of the carbon weave. A ten-eight K weave gives a stiffer and more precise face, while a twelve K remains more flexible and comfortable.
How to hold a padel racket?
The continental grip, the most commonly used, involves holding the racket like a hammer, with the edge facing the net. It allows for forehand, backhand, and volley shots without changing grip. Always attach the wrist strap.
What weight of padel racket should I choose?
Most players use rackets weighing between three hundred and fifty and three hundred and sixty-five grams. A lighter racket is easier on the arm and provides better manoeuvrability; a heavier one hits harder but can be more tiring.
