What is different
Four things change between them. Pick one to look closer.
Carbon and fibreglass on the Elite 02, carbon 3k on the Mustang.
No edge either way
* 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.
About the same weight: 350 to 360 g and 355 to 370 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 Elite 02 at 255 mm, the Mustang at 270 mm.
Edge: the Elite 02, 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 Elite 02 is at PadelProShop right now, at €265.
