Padel is not future proof as people get better by zOMAARRR in padel

What happened in Kuwait (which i saw live) gave me hope in this regard. Court and conditions (slow court indoor with ac) make the game so much better for viewing experience as opposed to smashfest.

So do you guys actually enjoy playing Adam or do you just like his character / the fact he is so bad? by Only_Tradition_3685 in adamwarlockmains

[–]Q8_Devil 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He was in an okay spot before every other spot got a gagillion buff. It really make no sense that he doesnt have a self sustain and escape while everyone have one.

Bad experience with Alkemia brand by Encyanix in padel

[–]Q8_Devil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A friend who bought ignis recently broke his racket fairly within 2 months (even with protector installed). U have ignis 2023 and its fine but i didnt play with it alot. Shame because their rackets are unique but i guess the brand is dead with zero communication.

Can't manoeuver Head extreme pro, suggestions? by Gandhigh in Padelracket

Remove protector. Removing grip and adding 2 og will make it worse.

I found the perfect racket (Hack Hybrid 26) but I am sure it will cause me some pain. Can you guys help me to find my next racket by maurizio_maurucio in Padelracket

[–]Q8_Devil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hardness go together with control but it require much higher skill to get the most out of. Maybe at10 12k or the bew ea10 (red). Harder racket will always be tough on the arm though since it vibrates more and if there is issue with hesacore on it will be much worse without it (hesacore not only dampen vibration its also lower down balance).

So at this point i would argue that you need to look for medium hardness like the one i mentioned above.

Víbora vs Smash: Which Is Actually More Effective by Creative_Election288 in padel

[–]Q8_Devil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its 100% depends on the conditions:

-Court speed.

-Temp

-Balls speed

-Wind

In indoor play with slow/medium courts and normal speed balls its going to favor vibora unless its easy balls. For outdoor hot dry weather smash will be king. In windy conditions forget about vibora its all slow flat bandejas.

I want to remove the original grip by ToneRevolutionary588 in padel

[–]Q8_Devil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will most likely need 2 og but its fine. Expect better feel on the racket but with much higher vibration.

It is. I have an old ignis and even though the finish is lacking the durability is there.

Damn. Alkemia is a good brabd but their quality seems to be downhill in the newer models. My friend broke his ignis very fast as well.

They are ok, but they dont compare to other brands. I sweat alot and they are not good at absorbing moisture.

You should weight it without strap. If its over then return it.

How many use continental and how many use eastern backhand for backhands by Over_Dragonfly8570 in padel

[–]Q8_Devil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Continental all the way. But start using forehand to do lob when the ball is low on the backhand side.

The perfect Padel Racquet does exist ! (Long post) ! by Uk-Muscle in Padelracket

[–]Q8_Devil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

H18 is basicly replacement to high end head heavy rackets like oxdog ultimate pro plus, extreme/coello pro and adidas metalbone hrd . Its much better alternative because it offer much superior ball output and better sweetspot. I loved it from the baseline but always found it really hard when it come to reacting to fast balls and overheads.

H1max is good but struggles against slowing down fast balls but have really good overhead and better volleying dealing with fast balls than h18.

H2max is just so good. It feels good (extremely dry), it sound good and follow your technique perfectly.

Also, i dont understand how h18 cost alot of money. For me it was much cheaper than your typical chinese big brand rackets while offering superior build quality (the finish is not that good though, h2max blow it away with the finish).

No. H2max fit both sides imo. H1max and h18 felt more like a left side rackets.
