EVA
- Padel racket cores are made with Ethyl-vinyl acetate (EVA)Â and polyethylene
- EVA is increasingly used due to its durability
- Low density EVAÂ is soft and comfortable, which high density EVAÂ will bring power and precision to your game
Ethyl-vinyl acetate is a polymer used to create the foam in the core in padel rackets. It is a harder alternative to polyethylene.
EVAÂ of different densities are used to create rackets with different characteristics, from softer touches to harder.
Increasingly, manufacturers are using layers of different densities of EVAÂ in an effort to give the best of both worlds to players - the comfort of a soft core with the precision and power of a hard core.
Roughness
The application of a rough surface on a padel racket's face in order to assist players in generating spin on their shots.
