Oxdog Ultimate Pro Light 2027

The Oxdog Ultimate Pro Light is a diamond-shaped padel racket for advanced players, developed for an attacking game without giving up maneuverability. With a light weight (350 grams), high balance and a hard construction, this racket combines the power characteristics of a diamond with the speed of a lighter racket. New is the RBS weight system, allowing you to adjust the balance yourself.

The sweetspot of a diamond shape is small and sits high on the face. Hit the ball there and you get maximum return on smash and vibora. Hit it lower or to the side and you noticeably lose pace. This makes a diamond more demanding than a hybrid, but if you have the technique it rewards you with a level of explosiveness that other shapes cannot match.

What sets the Ultimate Pro Light apart is the combination of a diamond shape and a light weight. Heavy diamonds (365-375 grams) give maximum leverage but less maneuverability. This 350-gram version with a swingweight of 160 (just below neutral) stays fast in the swing. You lose some mass in the head, but you gain reaction speed at the net and smoothness on the volley.

THE TECHNOLOGY: WHAT DO YOU NOTICE?

• Diamond shape with high balance: weight distributed towards the head of the racket. What you notice: extra power on overhead shots such as smash and vibora.
• Light weight (350 grams): lighter than a standard men's diamond (365-375g). What you notice: you swing faster and react more easily at the net. Feels less head-heavy than a heavier diamond, despite the high balance.
• Medium+ Foam core: medium to hard core construction. What you notice: a solid feel on impact with enough feedback to know where you are hitting the ball.
• Sandy face texture: rough top layer with a fine, sand-like structure. What you notice: the ball grips better, giving extra spin on shots like bandeja and topspin.
• RBS weight system (6 grams): stainless steel weight that you attach to the handle yourself. Add it for a more head-heavy feel on the smash, leave it off for maximum maneuverability.
• Replaceable wrist cord with adjustable fit: wrist cord that you can replace yourself and adjust to your hand.
