Diamond padel rackets

A diamond shape moves the sweet spot up towards the tip and usually comes with a head-heavy balance. It gives more power on smashes and overheads, in exchange for less forgiveness and more physical effort. It is the shape of choice for attacking intermediate and advanced players.
