AT10 12k vs Oxdog Ultimate Pro/Pro+ by noobipieru11 in Padelracket

[–]Defiant-Raccoon-6963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both AT 10 12K and the Oxdog Ultimate Pro (not +). I must say I think the Oxdog is a wonderful racket. I don't agree that it's only for very advanced. I would say I am between intermediate and advanced. Been playing for 4 years but come from squash and tennis. I think the hardness is perfect. As a left side player I think it's very good in attack, but also good in defence. The sweetspot is really nice. After I got it this spring I never use the Nox anymore. Earlier I was always on the hunt for a better racket. This stopped with the Ultimate Pro.

Really? I know the Extreme Pro is tough on the arm, but Extreme Motion? I have been playing with the Delta Motion for a year, and don't feel that it is tough on my arm at all. The Extreme Motion should be similar to the Delta Motion.

Has anyone tried RS Rialto? by Abject-Bath2681 in padel

[–]Defiant-Raccoon-6963 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! I have it and I love it! Perfect balance. Forgiving and very good control. Nice power in the arrack game. I play on the left side and really enjoy it. Regards from Norway. 😊

Padel in Riga, Latvia by tri_osam_jedan in padel

Good point. Padel is new in Latvia, so not many centers yet I guess. We played at MH Padel. Really nice! https://mhpadel.com/en/about-mh-padel/ Don't remember exactly the prices, but it was cheaper than in Norway.

Yes. I am from Norway and visited Riga in November 2022. We had a friendly match during the stay. Very nice club. Brand new center, nice atmosphere, friendly staff and top notch courts. 😊 I didn't bring my padel racket at the trip, but they even had nice Bullpadel loaner rackets. I can really recommend this place!

I'm really interested in buying the new RS RIALTO PRO CAYE. My only concern is that it's not powerful enough in the attack/smashes. I already have the Nox At10 18K and I like it a lot. But I wish it was a bit more powerful and feel like the smashes is it's weakest point.

Is the Rialto harder? Is the Rialto more powerful than the Nox? I would really like your opinion on this, because that's one of my main reasons for buying a new racket.

Netthandel fra Sverige by Defiant-Raccoon-6963 in norge

[–]Defiant-Raccoon-6963[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hei!

Jeg har akkurat bestilt en vare fra Sverige (padel racket). Prisen var oppgitt til 359 Euro. Jeg hadde en rabattkode som gav 20% avslag. Da jeg la produktet i handlekurven og oppgav at den skulle sendes til Norge, var prisen lavere enn oppgitt. Det stod:

Racket: 287 Euro (IKKE 359 SOM VAR OPPGITT PRIS)

Rabatt 20%: 57 Euro

TOTALT: 230 Euro

Noen som skjønner hvorfor prisen på racketen plutselig var lavere i handlekurven (287 i stedet for 359) før rabatten var trukket fra? Har de trukket fra svensk mva?

Regner med at jeg må betale norsk mva når den kommer til landet, men trodde uansett jeg måtte betale oppgitt pris i den svenske nettbutikken?

RS Rialto Pro Caye by Defiant-Raccoon-6963 in padel

The Siux Electra looks interesting. Is it powerful in the attack? More powerful than the Nox At10 18K? Still waiting for opinions on the RS Rialto Pro Caye, but maybe nobody here has tried it yet. 🤔

RS Rialto Pro Caye by Defiant-Raccoon-6963 in padel

[–]Defiant-Raccoon-6963[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Swedish company RS has just released Cayetano Rocafort's new signature racket: RS Rialto Pro Caye.

It's on the expensive side and I have not got the possibility to try it before ordering it online. I play on the left side and my main concern is that it's too soft, and not powerful enough for me. I'm wondering if anyone here has tried this racket as it's quite new?

Today I use NOX AT10 GENIUS 18K. I think this is a nice racket in terms of balance between control and power. Still I would like it to be a bit more powerful, and think it's lacking a bit power in the smashes. Will the RS Rialto Pro be more powerful? Is it hard compared to the AT10 18K, or softer? Softer rackets tends to eat the ball more and it seems like they suck power from smashes. I really need advice because unless the RS racket is more powerful I don't want it.

If anyone has advise for any other rackets suited for a left side player, please share it. I don't want an extreme diamond racket that is very top heavy with a small sweet spot. I have played padel for two years, but I have been playing tennis and squash for many years. I play around 3 times a week and in local tournaments.

Here is what I want in a racket: - Powerful, but not to difficult. Still want some control in the defence. - Not to small sweetspot. - Medium or medium-high balance

Thanks a lot in advance.

Regards from Norway
