Royal Padel Whip Polietileno wins by 7 points
Royal Padel Whip Polietileno scores 83/100 against 76/100 for the Babolat Air Origin. Its biggest edge is power (+20). The Babolat Air Origin answers back on maneuverability (+14).
“The Babolat Air Origin is a lightweight, forgiving entry-level racket built around an even balance and EVA foam core that prioritizes comfort and easy handling over outright punch. Its round shape and neutral balance make it genuinely maneuverable at the net and kind to players still developing technique, reducing arm fatigue across long sessions. However, at its price point it faces stiff competition from brands offering more foam density and better build quality, making it a safe but unremarkable choice for true beginners who trust the Babolat name.”
“The Royal Padel Whip Polietileno 2026 is a comfort-forward frame with a polyethylene core that absorbs impact and reduces vibration across long sessions. Power at 82 and control at 73 describe a frame that can generate pace on overheads while remaining approachable for intermediate players. Comfort at 72 is solid. Maneuverability at 66 is the trade-off: net reactions require early positioning. PRR score: 83/100.”
