Tips to know before buying a padel pala
Padel shovels are stamped as low, medium or high balance. A low balance pala is where the center of balance is near the handle and gives a greater control for less power. A high balance shovel has a center of balance much further up the face of the racket toward the tip. This is better for playing power shots, although it requires greater skill to control the ball.
The lighter the pala, the greater the amount of feel you have for the ball through the point of impact with the shovel. On the other hand, the heavier the racket, the greater the amount of power you can have.

The round shovels are the ideal rackets for beginner padel players. This is especially true for padel players who used to play tennis.
The diamond rackets have a top balance, which means that most of the weight is distributed away from the grip and towards the top part of the racket. This shape gives the shovel a lot of power, but makes it way harder to control.
The tear drop palas have that balance between still having some of the power of the diamond-shaped racket but maintaining a lot of the control that round shovels have.
