Between 110 and 170 grams, the difference is noticeable from the first exchange: during the Black Friday squash rackets, compare weight and balance to find the frame that suits your game, from leisure to competition. The models can be filtered by brand.
A light racket, around 120 grams, is quick to handle in the corners but requires precise striking. A heavier racket absorbs shock better and is more forgiving, which suits beginners or those looking for stability.
A head-heavy racket helps to hit long from the back. A head light racket is quicker at the net and in counter-wall shots. A neutral balance remains the most versatile.
The beginner player looks for a forgiving racket with a generous head size and medium weight. The club player who is improving benefits from a lighter racket to gain speed. The competitor chooses according to their game: more power from the back of the court or more agility up at the front wall.
A pre-strung racket is ready to play. A regular player sometimes prefers to choose their string and tension, which can be found among the discount squash strings.
