How do you choose the
right padel racket?
To choose the right racket can be difficult if you don’t know what you are looking for. In order to choose a suitable racket you have to know the level of your game and what type of player you are.
Four main factors are the shape, balance, weight and material.
SHAPE
OXDOG provides rackets in three different shapes. The Diamond shape which is traditionally more power focused racket, with a high sweetspot. The Teardrop shape racket which provides more control with a sweetspot slightly lower and also the Round shape racket which is more of a hybrid style and the sweetspot is lower towards the handle.
WEIGHT
Normally between 340-390g, our rackets are between 345-375g. Light rackets are easier to use and control. Heavier rackets provide more power in the strokes but can be more difficult to handle. You can change the balance and weight of your racket with our RBS – Racket Balance System and OptiWeight.
BALANCE
The balance of the racket is determined by how the weight is distributed between the lowest and the highest point. Our rackets have either medium or top balance and it can be fine-tuned with our RBS – Racket Balance System and OptiWeight.
MATERIAL
The unique HES-Carbon (High Energy System) reacts faster and transfers maximum energy into speed, power and increased durability. OXDOG's unique carbon and resin process optimize the fibers performance.
