In padel, Tecnifibre does not participate in crazy patents, external certifications or exclusive licenses. The factory knows how to produce rackets from A to Z and does not have to exaggerate the story about the technologies used to refute the idea of "the more, the better".
This is the vision of the brand: “We are not in the mass market and focus only on the real needs of players. That is why we think of 'useful technology' through rackets. Remember that top sport has standards that are not suitable for 99% of the players.”
For this reason, the brand has opted for a teardrop-shaped racket to satisfy as many players as possible.
The technical characteristics of the rackets.
– XTC Carbon Shield: Carbon fiber frame and head, combined with special braided TEI fibers that ensure maximum shock absorption on ball contact, giving you ten times more power. In addition, the tubular section is reinforced with graphite for better impact resistance and excellent durability.
– 20° rubber core: Solid for the 355 and 360, Medium for the 365 and 375.
– X-TOP: Improved racket head construction for greater durability and impact resistance thanks to a mix of the strongest aramid fibers on the market, covered with a PTFE coating to minimize wear and tear.
– Progressive Hole Pattern: A drilling pattern with three different sized holes to enlarge the sweet spot. This gives more precision on center shots and more forgiveness on off-center shots.
– D-Bridge: Double arm bridge for more stability and stiffness. The heart of the racket does not twist on impact and the power is therefore transferred even better.
– Spin Skin 3D: The blade features a “material engraved” relief for maximum spin.
WallBreakers 355 and 360
The 355 and 360 are two extremely accessible, light and recreational models that will allow both beginners and more advanced players to play with rackets that are very homogeneous in terms of maneuverability.
They do not benefit from the technologies offered in the higher class, such as Spin Skin 3D, D-Bridge, Progressive Holes, Carbon HM or XTC and X-Top, which allow you to play in relaxed conditions with "effective" rackets.
The frame is made of graphite to provide more lightness, flexibility and playing pleasure. The blades are also made of graphite, a lighter material than carbon fiber, which provides more controllable power, more stroke comfort and extra ball exit on your strokes.
The 20° Solid rubber core and the balance weight of the head are bold choices for racquets that are primarily aimed at players who care about well-designed racquets, such as juniors, most women and players with elbow problems. They will undoubtedly appeal to a specific group of demanding players.
WallBreaker 375
This racket takes into account the weight distribution and is demanding and unforgiving. The smallest off-center hit is punished immediately, so this racket is recommended for top level players.
The sound that comes from this racket will amaze you because it hardly makes any noise!
The Medium rubber, the D-Bridge and the braided XTC carbon form a divine trinity that gives this racket an incredible stiffness. When you are playing with it it is flat and hard but once you have mastered this the racket is incredibly dangerous. In net play it is simply exceptional, with overwhelming precision: the ball is placed effortlessly wherever you want it.
It gets more difficult in defensive phases, because the racket is quite heavy and, with the hard surfaces, incredibly heavy on the wrist so you have to play a lot more with your arm and shoulder.
The racket is really intended for offensive players who can often hit a sweet spot.
Wall Breaker 365
This is the little sister of the WallBreaker 375. This one has identical technology, except for one important detail: it is equipped with High Modulus carbon (HM) on the blades, which offers even more stiffness. The carbon fibers used by Tecnifibre represent the highest grade. They are superior to conventional fibers and at the same time lighter, thanks to their higher tensile and compression resistance.
With 10 grams difference you will notice a big difference in the game. The racket is easier to handle, which results in more precision and control in your strokes. It remains extremely stiff, but is more versatile and easier to handle.
Conclusion
The 365 and 375 are ideal for advanced players looking for precision and power. The 355 and 360 are better suited for beginners or players who prefer lighter and more manageable rackets.
