Power Extra Grip: Innovation in the 2025 Padel Collection

Padel is a sport that combines speed, strategy, and technique, where every detail matters for optimal performance. One of those crucial details that often goes unnoticed is the grip of the racquet. This element can make the difference between a precise shot and a costly mistake. Here, we explain why the grip is key to your success on the court, the racquets that feature different types of grips, and how the evolution in their design can improve your performance.

Why is a good grip crucial?

The grip is the way we hold the racquet during the game. Although it may seem like a small detail, a poor grip can deeply affect control over shots and the ability to direct the ball to the desired spot on the court.

When you don’t have a proper grip, you can lose stability and power in your shots, making it harder to maintain control. Additionally, an incorrect grip can lead to long-term injuries, especially to the wrist and elbow. A correct grip not only provides better control, but also more comfort and greater effectiveness in your shots.

Grip as a definition of style and technique

The grip of the racquet also defines your playing style. With a good grip, executing shots precisely and effectively becomes easier. This, in turn, reflects your technical ability and your approach to the game.

There are different types of grips, such as the continental grip, forehand grip, and backhand grip, among others. Each one has its own characteristics that adapt to different playing styles. The type of grip you use directly affects performance, which is why finding the one that best suits your game is essential.

Power Extra Grip: The +1cm Difference

adidas Padel has taken innovation a step further with its new Power Extra Grip technology, included in some of its racquets in the 2025 collection. This 12 cm grip, one centimeter longer than usual, not only improves comfort and hold but also increases the racquet’s inertia, resulting in greater power in shots, especially during attacks.

By shifting more mass toward the racquet’s head, the Power Extra Grip allows players to execute faster and more powerful shots with greater ease. This technology, featured in models such as the Metalbone and Cross It racquets, gives players a significant advantage on the court, helping maximize the speed and power of every hit.
