Today, Joma experts want to provide you with a basic guide and tips for choosing a tennis racquet to find the perfect option for your needs. This sport can be a challenge, especially when choosing the right racket. It is important to make the right choice, which will give confidence and comfort in the game.

1. Form

There are three types of racquet shape: diamond, teardrop and round. Diamond shaped blades provide more power but less control and are designed for advanced players. The teardrop shaped paddles are suitable for intermediate players who combine power with control. The round shaped blades are ideal for beginner players looking for more control and less power.

2. Core

The core of the racket can be different, each type has its own advantages. Blades with EVA core provide durability and impact force. For example, Joma Open, Slam and Rookie rackets are made of EVA SOFT material. If you're looking for maximum power, we recommend EVA PRO racquets such as the Stadium CTR or the Challenge. This type of EVA provides control for controlled development of maximum power.

3. Balance

Racquet balance affects power and control. High balance provides more power but less control, while low balance does the opposite. Medium balance rackets offer a compromise between power and control. Examples: Stadium racquet has a high balance, an open tennis racquet has a medium balance, and a Slam has a low balance.

4. Thickness

The ideal racquet thickness is 38mm or less. This is the most common thickness and we recommend staying at this value. All Joma rackets are 38mm thick.
