Different Padel Rackets Explained
The racket’s shape plays a vital role in padel. Generally, you differentiate between diamond, round and drop, with the former being particularly suited for attacking players, as they allow for higher speeds.
If you like to defend, a round racket head matches your game, for it enhances control, while drop-shaped padel rackets make sure you can keep the right balance between attacking and defending. Instead of being strung, the hitting surfaces are made of synthetics or carbon fibre. To reduce drag, there are holes in the racket.
That is why it is easier to perform a successful stroke in padel than in other racket sports. At the same time, using a hard surface instead of strings reduces speed, which facilitates a beginner’s entry.
Size, Weight and Rigidity: a Padel Racket’s Characteristics
Like in tennis, there are exact rules for a padel racket’s size and weight. They need to be considerably shorter than tennis or squash rackets and are not allowed to measure more than 46 centimetres in length, 26 centimetres in width while not being thicker than 38 millimetres.
Padel rackets weigh between 340 and 390 grams, with lighter rackets facilitating ball control while offering less power for your strokes. Heavier models take the opposite route: your strokes will be more powerful yet, less controlled. That is the reason heavy rackets better fit advanced players and pros. If you are looking for a compromise, try to get your hands on a padel racket between 360 and 370 grams.
Since it balances out hitting power and ball control, a padel racket’s rigidity also plays an important part. Harder surfaces improve control but offer less power. Plus, they put more wear and tear on your arms, as they absorb the impact energy less efficiently. Softer hitting surfaces, on the other hand, are easier on the arm while allowing for more speed yet, less control.
How Big Does a Padel Racket’s Sweet Spot Need to Be?
Like in tennis, the „sweet spot“ describes the part of the hitting surface you hit the ball with most precisely. Padel rackets with a particularly large sweet spot in the centre allow more ball control. The smaller the sweet spot, the more powerful your strokes will be; however, you then need to hit the ball more accurately in the centre.
Hence, beginners use padel rackets with larges sweet spots, while smaller ones work well for advanced players and pros. Also, there is the option of ellipsis-shaped sweet spots that balance out speed and control.
Grip or Head Heavy Padel Rackets?
In addition to the above, make sure you also consider your padel racket’s weight distribution. When using a grip heavy model, you have more ball control but lose power. Head heavy padel rackets, on the other hand, mass the weight around the racket head, which allows you to accelerate the ball more powerfully––at the expense of control. Again, evenly balanced padel rackets offer a nice compromise between power and control.
