Criteria for Selection

When evaluating rackets for advanced power-oriented padel players, we consider specific criteria to ensure optimal performance in terms of power.

Firstly, we recommend rackets with a high balance - at least 27 centimeters. It's important to note that high balance sacrifices maneuverability, so we recommend these rackets only for players who possess the necessary strength to handle and benefit from the leverage effect that comes with a higher balance.

Additionally, we suggest rackets with a medium-hard or hard hardness, featuring a carbon fiber surface and a high-density EVA core.

These characteristics contribute to power generation and durability, enhancing your performance on the court.

Characteristics for Advanced Power-Oriented Players

Rackets suitable for advanced power-oriented players may also feature roughness on the surface. This design element increases spin generation, delivering increased weight on volleys and viboras.

Popular Brands and Models

There are many great brands to explore when searching for rackets that cater to the needs of advanced power-oriented players.

Due to ethical and/or environmental concerns, some players opt for brands who manufacture in Europe, such as Akkeron, Alkemia, Cork, Starvie, Tactical Padel, and Varlion.

How is this list made

We present here the top-rated rackets fulfilling the high balance, medium-hardness criteria, sorted by overall score.

Maneuverability for Power-Oriented Players

While maneuverability is compromised with rackets featuring high balances, it's important to recognize that the leverage effect provided by these rackets significantly enhances shot power.

We acknowledge the trade-off and recommend these rackets to players who prioritize power over extreme maneuverability.

Considerations for Specific Preferences and Joint Issues

We understand that advanced power-oriented players may have specific preferences for weight and balance. For players weighing below 65 kilograms, we recommend using a racket that weighs below 365 grams to ensure optimal handling and maneuverability.

For players with joint issues or "padel elbow," we have curated a list of the best soft rackets or rackets specifically designed for players with epicondylitis. These rackets prioritize comfort and help alleviate stress on the joints during game play.

Pricing and Affordability

While advanced rackets typically fall within the “street price” range of €200-300, we understand the importance of pricing and affordability.

We strive to provide value for money and offer exclusive discounts on our website.
