Head Padel Rackets: Physics that helps you win
The Austrian brand Head is thoughtful engineering multiplied by comfort and player safety. It was the first to introduce into tennis, and later into padel, Oversize — a racket with an enlarged sweet spot. Thanks to this, even an imperfect shot allows the ball to fly correctly. The brand's priorities are to make the game better and put player safety in first place. By choosing Head padel rackets, you get technology trusted by both amateurs and world stars, such as Arturo Coello.
At Fun Padel, we often recommend Head precisely because this brand pays huge attention to ergonomics. This is critically important to avoid common problems, such as forearm strain or "tennis elbow".
What stands behind Head technologies?
Behind the loud names lie physics and engineering solutions that work for you. The main reason to buy a Head racket is care for your body and gaming characteristics:
- Auxetic: Specific carbon fiber construction in the racket bridge ensures "alive" feedback. Upon strong impact, the material immediately reacts by becoming stiffer, while on light technical shots, it becomes softer for precision.
- Soft Buttcap: A soft cap on the handle comes as a base. A dampener made of two-density material practically "eats" vibrations before they reach your elbow. Result — less fatigue and lower risk of injury.
- Smart Bridge and Tailored Frame: Individual Smart Bridge and Tailored Frame guarantee the reinforcement of racket characteristics. The construction is not universal for all models. In powerful rackets, the bridge is rigid; in control ones, it is more flexible.
- Anti Shock Skin: A protective layer on the rim. This polymer bumper protects the racket from accidental hits against glass or fencing, extending the life of your professional Head equipment.
How to choose a racket for yourself?
The brand considers biomechanics and ergonomics; the racket should be chosen focusing on comfort and playing style. Guide by levels:
1. Pro / Advanced
If you have established technique, pay attention to the Extreme series (for powerful smashes, like Coello's) and Speed (universal fighters). The Motion and Pro models in these series are designed for fast reaction but require precision from the player.
2. Intermediate
The Gravity and Radical series have an expanded striking zone (sweet spot). This means that even if you do not hit perfectly in the center, the ball will still fly where you planned. This forgives mistakes and adds confidence.
3. Beginner
The Zephyr and Flash series mean lightness. They load the wrist less, allowing you to focus on learning rather than fighting the racket's weight. The use of Power Foam helps the ball fly out faster even with a weak swing.
