BUY INTERMEDIATE PADEL RACKETS

Deciding on a padel racket intermediate level can be a daunting task. With so many options on the market, it's easy to get overwhelmed. This guide will hopefully make sense of some of the information you may be seeing for the first time. The most important thing when choosing a paddle racket is that it is comfortable for you, since choosing the wrong racket can harm not only your game, but also your body. There is no perfect intermediate player padel racket to buy, each player will have slightly different requirements, but here are some guidelines that will help you find the best intermediate padel rackets for you.

A paddle racket is made up of three parts. The profile: this is the area around the edge of the racket, the core: this is the inside of the racket, and the impact surface: this covers the core. The three parts are made of different materials that are then fused together to form a solid unit.

THE PROFILE OF THE PADEL RACKETS ADVANCED INTERMEDIATE LEVEL

The profile is the first area to consider, it provides the strength to the racket as it is the most likely to hit the ground or walls. It is usually composed of tubular laminated layers of fiberglass, carbon fiber or graphite. Impregnated with wax or epoxy resin. It can also include a protective plate on top, this is a great help for an intermediate player who is more likely to hit the ground or wall.

The core of the padel racket of intermediate judador to buy

The core is normally made of foam or EVA rubber. EVA rubber is harder, giving you more control but less power. It's less forgiving, so you need to have a good technique to see the benefits of it, but it's also more durable than foam. A player who has good technique and is physically strong would be better suited for an EVA rubber core. The foam on the other hand is softer, so it will provide you with more power but less control, these rackets are more forgiving for beginner players, and will help you defend yourself from the bottom of the court. Being a softer material, the foam of the padel racket intermediate level control will not be as durable as eva rubber. Some manufacturers are starting to launch hybrids between these two materials, essentially a foam center surrounded by EVA rubber that allows for more durability without losing as much power.

The impact surface of the best intermediate padel rackets

The impact surface covers the core of the intermediate padel racket to buy, which is usually made of fiberglass, carbon fiber or graphite, in up to 3 layers. This will have an impact on the hardness of your racket, fewer layers will mean more power but it won't be as strong. While 3 layers will provide more durability but will not be able to provide as much power.

Weight of the best padel rackets intermediate level

The weight of your intermediate player padel racket will have a great effect on the amount of power you have. A lighter racket will be more maneuverable but a heavier one will allow you to hit really hard. It is generally considered best to play with the maximum weight you are comfortable with (it is likely to increase as your skills improve) to get the best out of your game. Padel rackets tend to weigh between 330g and 375g, and have a tolerance of up to 10g. Rackets of less than 365g on average are considered light, while those of more than 370g on average are considered heavy.

Balance of the advanced intermediate level padel rackets

Balance will also have a huge impact on our power and ball control. Padel rackets with a high balance point are diamond-shaped and give great power behind the ball but lack control. They are generally not suitable for beginners as a good level of technique is required to control the power. Even balanced rackets are drop-shaped, good for regular players, and offer a good mix of power and control. Low-balance rackets are round in shape, and provide maximum control but may lack power. They are generally considered best for beginners as they encourage improved technique, while also providing a large hitting zone.

Thickness

The thickness of the paddle racket tends to vary between 36mm and 38mm with young people using 35mm. The rules of padel establish that you can not use a racket more than 38mm thick. Thinner rackets provide better maneuverability and control, while thicker ones give you more power. Beginners are usually better at using a thinner 36mm racket while more advanced players use 38mm.

Conclusions before buying the padel racket for intermediate users

We recommend beginners to start with a racket of less than 365g, a round shape (low balance), and a thickness of 36mm or 38mm.

Intermediate level players would be looking for a round racket between 365g and 370g, or a teardrop-shaped racket up to 370g, with a thickness of 36mm or 38mm depending on the player's preference. Advanced players will have a better idea of what suits their game, and can vary all weights, shapes, and thicknesses. Although most will play with a diamond-shaped racket of 370g or more with 38mm thickness.
Juniors start best with a racket specific to them. These tend to be lightweight, round in shape and 35 or 36 mm thick, and then pass into adult rackets accordingly, as their strength and skill improves.
