The Y1 RX1 is built for beginners who want easy control and comfortable spin while they learn.
- Shape: Round, so the sweet spot is big and central. Off-centre hits stay in play, giving you control and forgiveness.
- Level: Suits beginner players.
- Face: Fiberglass, softer and more comfortable on impact. The right choice while you develop.
- Balance: Low, handle heavy. The head feels light and quick in your hand, easy at the net.
- Weight: 365-380g, a sturdier build with more stability and weight behind the ball.
- Surface: A rough finish grips the ball, making slice and topspin easier to add.
- Standout: The shock-reduction frame blends 70% fibreglass with 30% carbon for a softer feel than pure carbon without giving up durability.
- Value: Simple construction, and that is the point. No reason to spend more until your technique asks for it.
- Fibreglass face: Softer and more flexible than carbon, fibreglass absorbs vibration and makes every contact feel comfortable. At beginner level, that forgiveness matters more than raw power.
- Soft EVA core: The core cushions impact and gives good rebound with less effort. You get clean ball speed off slower swings, exactly what you need while you are building timing.
- Shock-reduction frame (70% fibreglass, 30% carbon): The carbon stiffens the frame for durability and a touch more power, while the fibreglass majority keeps the feel soft on your arm. A sensible balance for a first racket.
- Sandpaper surface: The rough texture grips the ball and makes it easier to add spin to your shots. You will learn topspin and slice faster because the racket helps your brushing motion bite.

How can I guarantee next day delivery?
Order any in-stock item before our daily cut-off and we'll dispatch it the same day on a next day delivery service, free of charge. Everything listed as in stock is sitting in our warehouse ready to go, so there's no waiting on suppliers. Orders placed after the cut-off, on weekends or on bank holidays are dispatched the next working day. If you need something for a specific date, message us before ordering and we'll confirm it'll make it in time.
How do I choose the right padel racket for my skill level and playing style?
Start with your level, then your style. As a rough guide: round rackets have a big sweet spot and maximum control, ideal for beginners and defensive players. Teardrop rackets balance power and control, perfect for most intermediate players. Diamond rackets are power-focused with a smaller sweet spot, best for advanced, aggressive players. The quickest way to narrow it down is our Racket Quiz, answer a few questions about your level, style and budget and it'll recommend the best options currently in stock. You can also check out our YouTube channel where we review and test rackets on court, or just message us on WhatsApp and we'll recommend one personally.
