Our verdict

What we loved

Four things it does better than most.

Control 87 with a soft, communicative strike

Tolerance 80: mishits barely matter

Comfort 78 suits daily play indefinitely

Quick, early hands everywhere (maneuverability 77)

Worth knowing

Three things to know before you buy.

Power 71: winners must be designed, not hit

Soft feel frustrates players who like a firm report

Aggressive partners may want more finishing help

About this core

A HR3 Color EVA core. 41% of the rackets we have scored sit in this band. Read from the core until we rate firmness ourselves.

The review

Lamperti's ML10 Ventus Control 3K is a touch player's racket made without apology.

The 3K carbon face over an EVA core gives a soft, talkative strike; control 87 puts the ball on a saucer, and tolerance 80 with comfort 78 makes it about as forgiving as professional-grade equipment gets. Maneuverability 77 keeps you early to everything. Power 71 is the deliberate trade: you finish points the Lamperti way, with angles, lobs and mischief, or not at all. Value 72 is reasonable for signature craft. For players who treat padel as a placement duel, this is one of the purest tools available.

Highlights

Top 4% for control, and in the bottom quarter for power.

Both are true at once, and between them they are the whole review. Our score is better than 73% of the 518 rackets we hold a score for.
