Padel Rackets With More Roughness of 2024: Play with Effects!

For all those players who enjoy making sliced shots and adding lots of spin to the ball: you’re in luck. Today, we bring you a selection of padel rackets with the most texture this season.

When playing volleys, bandejas, smashes, or even drop shots, the player’s technical level is crucial for adding spin to the ball, but the type of racket surface and its texture also play a key role that will ultimately make life more difficult for your opponents.

Padel Rackets With More Roughness of 2024: Play with Effects!

In general, smooth rackets or those with very little texture do not allow the padel player to add that extra bit of spin to their shots. This is not necessarily a bad thing, as a rough surface causes the ball to stay on the racket longer during impact, which can sometimes result in a faulty shot that doesn’t achieve the desired direction.

Our recommendation is to try different rackets to see which ones best suit your characteristics and playing style. However, in our opinion, rackets with a textured surface give an extra punch to offensive players who seek to define the point at every moment.

Babolat Technical Viper Juan Lebrón 2024

‘El Lobo’s’ Technical Viper returns in a renewed form after being one of the best-selling rackets of last season. With a diamond shape and hard feel, it features soft and flexible fibers on the surface that provide unmatched power.

Its HPS technology ensures the perfect distribution of holes according to the racket’s shape to increase precision in every shot, while the rough finish generates a diabolical effect that will make opponents suffer at the back of the court. With this racket, hitting three-wall smashes, viboras, and drop shots will be a piece of cake.

Bullpadel Vertex 04 Comfort 2024

We present the official racket of Martín Di Nenno. This new model features a renewed mold, diamond-shaped with balance towards the tip. Its dual-density core offers good output at low speed and power to play fast. Additionally, its surface with Fibrix technology combines carbon with fiberglass to improve playability.

It features a sandy textured surface, which increases the effects we can give to the ball, while the Vibradrive technology integrated into the handle eliminates vibrations. Moreover, it includes Air React Channel technology, making it much more manageable and aerodynamic.

Siux Electra ST3 Stupa Pro 2024

The official racket of Franco Stupaczuk maintains the same format as the previous season with a hybrid mold that resembles a teardrop and incorporates a shiny, sandy texture finish to play sliced shots.

This season, it comes with 15K carbon and a hard EVA rubber core that provides spectacular ball output for depth in shots. Additionally, it incorporates the Dual Pro Grip to significantly improve grip when mimicking deep volleys, spin shots against the wall, and overhead smashes that the Argentine player executes.

We also have available online and in physical stores the Electra ST3 Lite, with 12K carbon for advanced players seeking a less demanding response when hitting the ball, and the Electra ST3 Go, with 3K carbon and a mix of different materials on the surface to facilitate entry to the courts for inexperienced players.

Dreampadel Rebel 2024

This Dreampadel racket has been manufactured 100% in Spain, taking care of even the smallest details in terms of design. It is a control racket due to its round shape, low balance, and Sweet Spot technology, which significantly increases the sweet spot to generate a greater volume of play.

Its construction is 100% carbon with a Hexcel 3K finish that increases its rigidity, so it doesn’t fall short in power shots. The core uses multilayer EVA rubber, meaning foam with different densities to ensure maximum comfort. In short, it is a high-performance racket that we recommend to right-handed players because it performs very well from the back of the court and also impresses near the net.

Star Vie Astrum Soft 2024

The new Astrum offers a large hitting surface with a round mold that ensures precision and comfort in every shot. It also features an exquisite touch thanks to the Soft EVA rubber inside, improving the player’s sensations.

Additionally, it has the new Noene grip that minimizes vibrations, providing a secure and precise grip. On the other hand, the rough finish on the surface facilitates the execution of spin shots, while the 3K carbon fabric ensures optimal resistance and durability.

Undoubtedly one of the best rackets on the list for its quality-price ratio. It is identical to the Nox ML10 Pro Cup but its surface features a rough finish with noticeable silica sand to add more spin to the shots.

Its round shape and sweet spot in the center make it a great companion for advanced players who seek to continuously pass the ball to the other side of the court.
