What's different between a padel racket and a beach tennis racket?
| Padel | Beach tennis | |
|---|---|---|
| Court | Glass and walls | Sand, no walls |
| Bounce | The ball bounces before many shots | No bounce, so you play volleys |
| Racket | Thicker | Slimmer profile |
| What counts most | Power and playing off the walls | Volley control and stamina in long matches |
Coming from padel? Don't reuse your padel racket. Thickness, surface and weight all differ, and the swing doesn't work the same way.
What should you look for in a beach tennis racket?
Balance
A balanced racket is easier on the shoulder than one with lots of weight in the head. You notice it in long matches in the sun.
Volley control
With no bounce, nearly every shot is a volley. A racket that responds well to touch gives you more precision than one made just for hitting hard.
Ball response
A good feel on the face lets the ball come off easily, so you don't have to force your arm on every rally.
