Where to Buy

alkemia Ignis 3.0 padel racket - front view

Pros

  • Excellent volleys, great maneuverability around the court, great in the aerial game - one of the most comfortable I’ve ever felt with a racket.
  • In smashes: It has a lot of power, I found it a little hard to control the ball - easy to get the ball back to your side of the court. Tested with 25 degrees.
  • In the front of the court, it has a pretty hard touch. I was able to control volleys very well. I didn’t notice the impact of the roughness very much.

Cons

  • If you miss the sweet spot, the ball doesn’t shoot much.
