Acero Padel Racket – No. 3

No. 3 is the ultimate padel racket for those looking for an easy-to-play racket with a focus on control.

The racket is round and offers a generous sweetspot that gives a nice feeling in every shot. This racket has been equipped with carbon fiber material with 3K on the hitting surface, which is the industry standard. This means that the hitting surface consists of a carbon fiber with 3,000 carbon fiber threads per square centimeter. The more threads, the faster and more responsive the carbon fiber is in capturing and pushing back the ball. 

On the hitting surface we also find our appreciated grooved steel pattern, with a depth of 0.6 mm, which gives a little more "bite" and thus spin on the ball. On the racket we find 64 holes with sharp edges that produces good spin in sliced shots. 

Inside the racket, we find our incredibly popular black medium-stiff EVA core, which can be found in all of our rackets. The medium density of the core provides a nice supportive feeling in the soft strokes, and a powerful responsive feeling in the hard strokes, generating plenty of speed. 

The frame is made of 100% carbon fiber, which makes it even more durable and contributes to a solid and stable hit feel. 

The No. 3 has a reinforced neck between the racket's handle and hitting surface - designed to minimize vibrations and thus reduce the risk of injuries. 

The racket comes with a weight of just 355-365 grams and a low balance of 250 millimeters. The light weight makes the racket feel easy to maneuver in the toughest duels - and is gentle on elbows and shoulders. The balance determines how the weight is distributed on the racket. A high balance makes it feel front-heavy, a low balance makes the weight closer to the hand and feels easy to maneuver. When collecting reviews, our customers describe the No. 3 as "very easy to play" and "gentle on the elbow". 

No. 3 comes in a sleek and stylish case that protects your racket from high temperature differences and dirt between matches. 

We recommend No. 3 to serious amateurs who want to take their game to the next level and have a racket they can grow with, as well as more advanced players who want to minimize their own mistakes. Despite its focus on control, we think the racket offers plenty of speed thanks to the medium stiff core in combination with the carbon fiber face. A racket that fits and is appreciated by a wide range of players!
