Advice for beginners padel rackets

For beginning padel players, it is logical that their technique is not quite right yet and that this needs to be learned and developed. The type of padel racket which is most suitable for this group of players is the round padel racket. These rackets are suitable for a large group of players because of their all-round characteristics and accessibility to the game. The round padel rackets have a sweet spot which is located centrally in the racket. This allows you to hit the ball in the middle of the racket, and the sweet spot is relatively large. This makes it easier for you to hit the ball back and to get the winning point. These round rackets also offer good control and allow you to hit the ball with precision and speed. 

Choose a light weight padel racket

The padel rackets we select for beginning players are generally light in weight. A light padel racket is easier to handle because it has less resistance. This allows you to move the racket faster and return the ball well. A light racket is also ideal for the more injury prone players as it reduces the strain on your shoulder, elbow, etc. The disadvantage of a light weight padel racket, is the lack of power. Mass = power. But for a beginner player, it's best not to take this into account and do it on the next racket. 

What are the differences between padel rackets?

A padel racket can differ in shape, weight and materials used. The heavier padel rackets are suitable for powerful players who have a lot of technique. The lighter rackets are suitable for players who are just starting to padel, who are prone to injuries, or who want a more maneuverable racket. And then of course you can choose between a round, Tear drop shaped or diamond-shaped racket. The rackets are made of glassfiber, carbon or a combination of these materials.
