Rackets
Which Kuikma racket is right for you?
Kuikma rackets come in three shapes. Control models are round, Hybrid models are teardrop-shaped and Power models are diamond-shaped. The Pro rackets use 18K TeXtreme carbon and suit advanced players, while the Comfort and Open models are mainly fibreglass, cheaper and more forgiving.
