Reduced Weight
Women's padel rackets are lighter than unisex or men's versions, typically weighing between 340 and 370 grams. This weight reduction enhances maneuverability, allowing for quicker reactions on the court and minimizing arm fatigue. Additionally, it helps reduce the risk of injuries to the wrist and elbow, ensuring greater comfort for longer playing sessions.
Racket Shape
Women's padel rackets often prioritize a round or teardrop shape, as they offer a larger hitting surface and a wider sweet spot, improving control and shot precision. More experienced players may opt for teardrop-shaped models with a medium balance to achieve a blend of control and power.
Balanced Weight Distribution
The balance of a racket determines how the weight is distributed, and women’s padel rackets generally have a low or medium balance. This ensures greater maneuverability and control, enhancing defensive play while reducing effort in each stroke. Some models designed for advanced players may feature a medium-high balance for added power.
