Tips to know before buying a padel racket
Padel rackets are stamped as low, medium or high balance. A low balance racket is where the center of balance is near the handle and gives a greater control for less power. A high balance racket 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 padel tennis ball.
The lighter the racket, the greater the amount of feel you have for the ball through the point of impact with the racket. On the other hand, the heavier the racket, the greater the amount of power you can have.

The round rackets are the ideal rackets for beginner padel players. This is especially true for padel players who used to play tennis. If you start padel classes, take a round racket, it will be easier with a better control.
The diamond rackets are top balanced, 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 racket a lot of power, but makes it way harder to control.
The tear drop rackets have that balance between still having some of the power of the diamond-shaped racket but maintaining a lot of the control that round padel rackets have.
