A round head with a low balance and a soft core. The sweet spot sits wide and low, so blocks, lobs and long rallies stay calm. Built for players who win by keeping the ball in play one more time than the other side.

Not sure it is the one? Take the racket finder or compare all three.

Specification

Every number, explained.

Level: Beginner to intermediate. If the numbers are new to you, the line next to each one says what it means on court.

Shape
Round
The largest, lowest sweet spot. Off-centre hits still come back.
Weight
355–365 g
Light enough to stay sharp at the net through a long third set.
Balance
Low, 255 mm
Weight sits towards the handle, so the head moves fast and stays steady.
Face
12K carbon
A fine weave that feels crisp without jarring.
Frame
100% carbon, tubular
Stiff where it counts, so the face does not twist on a block.
Core
Soft EVA
Gives on contact. Easy depth, kind on the elbow.
Profile
38 mm
The standard padel thickness.
Surface
Fine sand texture
Grips the ball for slice and a little topspin.
Feel
Soft
Level
Beginner to intermediate
Playstyle
Control, defensive
Court trial
60 days
Play it properly. If it is not for you, send it back for a full refund.
Warranty
2 years
Covers manufacturing faults in the frame, face and core.

Questions

Before you buy.

Which SOTTO. racket should I buy?

If you are newer to padel or win points by keeping the ball in play, choose 01 Control. If you play regularly and do a bit of everything, choose 02 Balance. If you are confident at the net and want more pace on the smash, choose 03 Power. The racket finder asks three questions and recommends one.

What does the 60-day court trial mean?

Buy a racket, play with it for up to 60 days, and if it is not right for your game, send it back for a full refund. It does not need to be unused. We only ask that it has not been damaged by misuse.

What does the warranty cover?

Every racket has a 2-year warranty against manufacturing faults in the frame, face and core. It does not cover cracks from hitting the wall, fence or floor, or normal wear to the surface and grip.

How much does delivery cost?

UK delivery is free on every racket and on any order over £50. Smaller orders are £3.95. Next working day delivery is £6.95. We currently ship to UK addresses only.
