Specifications Weight 365 g Head shape Teardrop Face material 12K carbon fibre Surface Sandy textured finish Core Medium EVA foam Balance Medium to high Player level Beginner to intermediate Playing style All-round Price £79.95, or £92.95 as the Court Pack Common questions Should I buy the racket alone or the Court Pack? The Court Pack, unless you already own grips. Every racket needs an overgrip within the first few sessions and a head protector before the first mis hit off the glass. Buying them together saves £9.85 and one delivery wait. How much does the Midnight Black weigh? 365 g with a medium to high balance point. That sits in the middle of the standard range for padel rackets, where most players are comfortable between 355 g and 375 g. Light enough to swing freely, heavy enough to stay stable against a hard ball. Is a £79.95 racket good enough for a beginner? Yes, if you have played a few times and plan to keep going. The Midnight Black pairs a teardrop head and a medium EVA core with a 12K carbon face, so there is room to grow into it. If you have never held a racket, a softer round racket can be easier for the first few sessions. We sell direct, so there is no distributor margin or retailer markup in the price. Why a teardrop head? Round rackets keep the sweet spot in the centre for control, diamond rackets push it high for power, and teardrop sits between the two. Full comparison in our padel racket shapes guide. What does 12K carbon actually mean? The number refers to how many carbon filaments are bundled into each strand of the weave. 3K is softer and more forgiving, 18K is stiffer and suits fast advanced swings, and 12K sits between them. There is a longer explanation in our carbon grades guide. Which of the three models should I pick? All three are the same racket in a different finish: 365 g, teardrop, 12K carbon face, medium EVA core, £79.95. Pick the one you want to be seen carrying. The Ice White and Shark Blue play identically. Playing with a partner? Padel is a doubles game. The DUOs Pack covers two players for £164.95, which is £82.48 each. What does the warranty cover? The frame, for 12 months from delivery. Damage from hitting the glass or the cage is not included, and neither are the marks you earn playing. How long does UK delivery take?
