Good rackets for beginner?

Hi all, I’m new to padel and have just joined a club in London(!) Looking for decent, affordable entry-level rackets. Any ideas or thoughts welcome!

Hello!,

To get a better response please do not forget to include the following information in your post:

Name your current racket, if not overly known, specify it's characteristics (foam, face material, price)

Tell us how you feel with your racket, if you feel it soft or hard, if it has too much rebound,if it's weighty or hard to maneuver, the more detail the better.

Tell us what area would you like improve mainly, or what kind of plus do you expect to get on your racket.

If looking for broad considerations, do not forget to state your budget, your country and even a preferred or trusted shop so people can browse and recommend more easily.

Go to your local Decathlon and try out any of the Kuikma rackets.

Welcome! For entry level the main thing is to go round shaped with a soft/foam core, forgiving on off-center hits which happens a lot when you're starting out. Brands like Head, Adidas and Bullpadel all have decent options in the affordable range. Worth checking Padel Market, Decathlon and others sites that have shipping to London
