The problem

Your smashes land in the opponents' half instead of finishing the point, however hard you swing.

How it helps your game

The Strike is built for the attacking side of the game. Its diamond-shaped head moves the balance towards the top, so more of the racket's mass goes into the ball when you hit an overhead or a flat volley. The 3K carbon faces are stiff and quick to return the ball.

Inside, an EVA foam core gives the face its bounce. It suits intermediate players with a settled technique who now want to win points at the net rather than just keep the rally going.

Perfect for…

You already play regularly and your technique is consistent.

You like to take the net and finish the point with a smash.

You want more power than your current round racket gives you.

You prefer a clean, understated design on the face.

01

A diamond head that drives the smash

On a diamond-shaped racket, the widest part of the head sits high up and the balance moves towards the top. Each overhead carries more momentum, which is what turns a decent smash into a winner.

The trade-off is a smaller sweet spot than a round racket: it rewards players who already hit the centre of the face consistently.

02

3K carbon faces over an EVA core

Both faces are made of 3K carbon fibre, a woven carbon that is stiff and responsive. The ball comes off the face quickly, without the dead feel of fibreglass.

Between the faces, an EVA foam core provides the bounce and keeps the response even across the hitting area, rally after rally.

03

A clean look, from the court to the bench

The Strike is finished in matte black carbon with a red frame: no slogans, no oversized graphics, just the weave and the perforations.

The frame edge, the short handle and the wrist strap complete a racket that looks as focused as it plays, whether it is in your hand or resting between games.

Racket guide

Choose the right padel racket

Four things decide how a padel racket feels: the material of the face, the shape of the head, the density of the foam core and the surface finish. Here is what each one changes on court.

This racket

3K carbon
Diamond

Surface material

The face is a thin layer of fibreglass or carbon laid over the foam core. The "K" is the number of carbon filaments per thread, in thousands: the higher it is, the wider the weave and, in general, the stiffer and more direct the face.

Fibreglass

Flexible and forgiving. The ball leaves the face easily with little effort, which suits beginners and relaxed games.
This racket
3K carbon

The finest carbon weave. Light and responsive, with a good balance between feel and stiffness.
12K carbon

A wider weave and a firmer face. More direct response, a little less give on soft shots.
18K carbon

Stiffer still. A firm, precise feel for players who already generate their own pace.
24K carbon

The widest weave and the stiffest face of the range. Very precise, and the least forgiving when you miss the centre.

Racket shape

The shape decides where the sweet spot sits and how the weight is balanced. The lower the sweet spot, the easier the racket is to control; the higher it is, the more power you get on smashes.

Round

Large sweet spot low in the head and a balance close to the hand. Easy to handle and forgiving: the classic choice for control.

Power

Control
Teardrop

Sweet spot in the middle of the head and a medium balance. The all-rounder, for players who defend and attack.

Power

Control
This racket
Diamond

Sweet spot high in the head and a head-heavy balance. Built for power on smashes; it asks for good technique.

Power

Control

Whatever the shape, a padel racket measures up to 45.5 cm long and 26 cm wide, with a profile of 30 to 38 mm.

EVA core density

Inside every padel racket is a block of EVA foam. A softer, lower-density foam absorbs more of the impact and gives the ball an easy exit; a harder, denser foam returns more energy when you hit hard.

Soft Density 10–13

The most comfortable feel and an easy ball exit at slow and medium pace. Maximum comfort and control.

Density

Comfort

Power
Medium Density 15–17

A balanced foam: comfortable enough for long rallies, firm enough to finish the point.

Density

Comfort

Power
Hard Density 19–22

A dense, firm foam that rewards fast, full swings with maximum power. Less comfortable on slow balls.

Density

Comfort

Power

Surface finish

The top coat changes how the face looks, how it ages and how much it grips the ball.

Glossy

A smooth, shiny clear coat that makes colours stand out and wipes clean easily.
Matte

A satin, non-reflective coat with a premium look. It shows fewer fingerprints and small marks.
Sandy (textured)

A gritty, rough coat that grips the ball a little more on brushed shots, to help you add spin.

Which one is for me?

A starting point by level. Your own feel on court always comes first.

Level	Surface	Shape	Core	Finish
Beginner	Fibreglass or 3K carbon	Round	Soft	Any
Intermediate	3K or 12K carbon	Round or teardrop	Soft or medium	Matte or sandy
Advanced	12K to 24K carbon	Teardrop or diamond	Medium or hard	Sandy, for extra spin

Not sure? A round or teardrop racket with a soft or medium core suits most club players.

Frequently asked questions

Is a diamond racket right for me?

A diamond shape suits players who already have a consistent technique and want more power. If you are just starting or often hit off-centre, a round racket will be more forgiving.

What does 3K carbon mean?

It refers to the carbon fibre fabric used on the faces: woven bundles of carbon filaments. It gives a stiff, responsive surface that returns more energy to the ball than fibreglass.

How heavy is it?

The supplier does not state the weight, so we do not quote one. Diamond rackets carry their balance towards the head, so they feel more head-heavy than round models. If you have elbow pain, consult a professional before choosing a racket.

How do I look after it?

Wipe the face with a dry cloth after playing, store it in a cover and keep it out of extreme heat or cold. Avoid scraping the frame on the floor and walls, which wears the edge.

How long will delivery take?

Every order is dispatched within 24 hours on working days. Standard Royal Mail delivery is free and takes 7–9 working days, with tracking. Need it sooner? Choose Priority delivery (5–7 working days) for £2.90 at checkout.

What if it's not right for me?

You have 30 days after delivery to return it unused and in its original packaging. A racket must not have been played on court (no marks, protective film and labels still on). Email help@padelviro.com with your order number and we'll guide you through the return. Faulty items are always covered.
