SKILLS & EQUIPMENT

READING

There are countless good, and bad, blade and rubber combinations, depending on your style of play and abilities. Don't waste your money guessing what to buy. Ask top players for suggestions and ask them if you can try out their rackets.
If you are a beginner and/or you don't want to spend a lot of money, this Palio Expert 3.0 should be a reasonable premade racket.
For the fully committed players, I recommend having a custom racket built with a Yasaka Sweden Extra blade (choose flared handle), and Xiom Vega Europe Max thickness rubbers on both sides (red and black).
The sellers listed below will assemble the racket for you when requested.
How to change your rubbers when they start to lose their grip.
