Our scores, updated 6 July 2026 · How we score
Score by score
How we score →The green bar wins the round. The Technical takes 3 of the six, the Tristorm takes sweet spot and handling and value.
Feel is read from the core and the face until hardness is measured.
What is different
Face, balance and price change between them; the rest is the same. Pick one to look closer.
Carbon against fibreglass: the Technical's carbon is stiffer and more precise, the Tristorm's fibreglass is softer, gives the ball more pop at low speed and forgives more.
Edge: the Technical, for precision
* The feel starts from the core's rated hardness (estimated from the core material where there is no rating), then the face: carbon 12K and up is firmer, fibreglass softer.
The same weight, 365 g.
No edge either way
Where each one balances, measured from the end of the handle. The lower the point, the more of the weight sits in your hand: the Tristorm at 265 mm, the Technical at 270 mm.
Edge: the Tristorm, for your arm
* Drawn to scale: a 455 mm racket in its shape's outline (traced from a real racket of that shape), with the balance point the shops list marked on it. Real rackets vary by a few millimetres.
Only the Technical is at PadelProShop right now, at €152.
