Mi a különbség a teljesítmény és a teljesítmény között?

You have bought one of the most powerful padel rackets on the market, but despite this, you struggle with your smashes. Do you feel that rackets that are supposedly less powerful help you more when it’s time to finish the point? This article is made for you!

“True Power”

When we watch a professional padel game, we are impressed by how easily the best players can define the point from virtually anywhere on the court. We sometimes think that buying the signature racket of those who appear in the videos of the best shots can also help us improve our offensive game. We are sorry to tell you that it’s not always true… But sometimes it is!

Professional players are not only high-level athletes but also have incredible technique. Like other racket sports, padel is mainly a technical and tactical game, and you need a good amount of experience and training to master all of its aspects. When you have put in the work and become an advanced player with good technique, you usually have all the tools to handle the most demanding rackets.

So, if you are already a serious player and wish to go to the next level in attack, you can surely turn to Arturo Coello’s Head Extreme Pro, Juan Lebron’s Babolat Technical Viper, or Ale Galan’s Adidas Metalbone 3.3 HRD+. These rackets have in common a small sweet spot, high balance, and significant rigidity, which will help powerful players who know exactly how to hit the ball make their offensive shots as efficient as possible.

“Easy Power”

But if you don’t have what it takes to make the best out of these demanding models, you will not feel their amazing power. Indeed, the most powerful rackets perfectly transmit the intensity of your shots to the ball, but if you don’t have enough strength or don’t hit the ball in the right spot, these rackets are not going to help you.

This is where the concept of “easy power” comes into play! Softer rackets are usually better for beginners, intermediate, and even some advanced players because their sweet spot is larger, and their softness generates a spring effect that allows, to a certain point, the ball to leave the racket faster and with less effort.

The best brands understand that less skilled players who enjoy playing offensively need special models that still have a high balance but with softer faces. Depending on your level, Bullpadel Hack 03 Comfort, Head Extreme Elite, vagy Bullpadel Ionic Power, are all rackets with an offensive shape that feature fiberglass on their faces and thus help generate a significant output that will help you put velocity into your shots without effort.

Sometimes, a slightly lower balance or a lighter weight can even help those who lack strength in their forearm generate more power. In that case, Babolat Air Veron vagy Head Speed Motion are usually perfect options.

Even though the rackets marketed as the most powerful in the world are the ones that will allow for the most powerful shots, they are not suitable for everyone. If you don’t have what it takes to handle them, you will usually be able to produce more powerful shots with softer versions, all with less effort!

So, if you are an elite player looking for the most efficient shots, go for those demanding powerful rackets used by the best professional players. But if you are not skilled or strong enough to make the best out of them, don’t hesitate to switch to a softer option!
