Rackets

Which Royal Padel racket is right for you?

Royal Padel's 2026 rackets fall into a few families. Soft polyethylene models like the Whip and 36 Aniversario focus on comfort and control, the M27 sits in the middle, and the Fury, R ACE and Control use firmer EVA Mid Hard rubber for more power.
