Franklin Sports AURORA Padel Racket - Carbon Fiber - 365g - Blue

Bought it a year ago, it was much cheaper.I cant find absolutely nothing wrong with it, it is light, it is consistent no matter how you hit the ball.Love it and when it breaks I will buy another one.

The racket is great. It provides you with power without walking away from control. Considering a paid less than a hundred dollars for it, I am pleased and more than satisfied with it. I would say it is better than some other rackets that are worth more than 150 USD.

Excelente balance y compacta, la pelota sale muy bien y te permite cortarla fácilmente

After getting hooked on pickleball, I decided to branch out into padel. This is NOT a tennis racket or a pickleball paddle. The game is similar to tennis but played in a mostly enclosed court. It is a specially built court setup. You can't just drop some new lines on a tennis or basketball court end end up with a padel court as you can to get a pickleball court most anywhere.In my area, there are very few padel courts and they are generally at private clubs. Since I haven't been able to actually play on a court yet, I took it down to the local gym where we sometimes play pickleball and hit a tennis ball around off the walls of the gym.I have no frame of reference for comparing this racket to any other one but I was able to put some spin on the ball. It felt comfortable to use and swing and it seems to whack the ball pretty hard especially when the ball hits the sweet spot.It looks and feels like a well built racket, feels pretty powerful and I was able to put a decent spin on the ball. It seems like it is a good starter racket for a new sport that is slowly starting to become more popular around the US.

My Wife had been getting the hang of tennis lately. We unfortunately have to drive about two towns over (we're in the country) to find an adequate public court that we can play on. But I noticed that she's been picking things up very fast by using this particular racket. Good weight balance, easy for her to handle. I can see how someone experienced might enjoy using it. But it mostly seems ideal for someone that's just picking the sport up. She also doesn't mind that people stop her and ask her where she got it from, since it's so unique looking.

Love the size in small hand and the solid center for impact of the ball. It’s definitely better than traditional tennis rackets. Love love love but a bit overpriced

So I only requested this one out of curiosity as it looked different from other tennis racket, and I've been quite familiar with this brand (I've purchased several pickleball paddles from this brand, and have been quite satisfied with their qualities).While I've only tested this out on practice a couple of times, so far I like it!It's very comfortable in my hands, and it looks cool !! haha I know it's not practical review but hey how it looks matters to me while playing leisure sports whether it's equipment or clothes.I will definitely report back if this one fails me rather unexpectedly, but based on my experience with other paddles from this brand, I think they will last for a while.You gotta try this one out to feel it though. I would recommend!

Well, there's no complaints from me. It has a black EVA foam core, a fiberglass face, and a carbon fiber frame. What I like most about though is this, "Max grit surface technology," that they speak of. Apparently, the surface of the paddle is coated with the max grit surface technology to help players put more spin on the ball. And I have at least noticed it, that's for sure.

It’s a pretty basic racquet
