KUIKMA Kids' Padel Racket PR 190 | Padel racket

This racket is designed for kids aged 9 to 11 who want to learn to play padel with a lightweight racket that's easy to handle.

What is Full EVA?

This innovation is exclusive to Kuikma, Decathlon's padel brand. The bat is made from a single piece of EVA foam covered with a composite fibre surface. The larger EVA foam surface increases the head's sweet spot and therefore makes it more forgiving of centring errors, resulting in better ball control.

Do you know what padel is?

Padel emerged in Mexico in the late 1960s. This fun sport soon found its way to Spain, Argentina, and later to all Spanish-speaking South American countries. Padel is currently the second-most played sport in Spain, behind football but ahead of tennis. There are eight million players around the world.

How do you play padel?

Matches are played in teams of two (doubles). Two serves are allowed and must be played underhand, diagonally across the court. One bounce is allowed. The ball must hit the ground before any other part of the court. The ball can be hit against a wall after it has bounced (wall only, not the metal fence). The ball can leave the court after bouncing and can be hit back into play from outside the court. The points system is the same as tennis.

The 325 g weight and 36 mm profile make this a light racket that's perfect for helping kids learn quickly. The Full EVA technology is comfortable and reduces vibrations.

Handling

The 36 mm profile and 310 g weight make for faster reactions.

Control

The Full EVA design is very forgiving of centring errors.
