RAPTOR+ Red, teardrop shape and a balance adjusted to your game

The RAPTOR+ Red is STARVIE's new teardrop padel racket. Its new mould combines power, control and manoeuvrability, and it's designed for versatile players looking for all-round performance on court. The 3D Carbon face reinforces stability and keeps control, while the M-EVA Balance core provides a medium feel that balances ball exit speed and comfort.

Its big new feature is the Power Balance system, built into the racket's frame, which lets you adjust the weight distribution and customise the balance to your playing style using weights of different grams.

New teardrop-shaped mould

With a new teardrop-shaped mould, the RAPTOR+ Red combines power, control and manoeuvrability. It's designed for versatile players looking for all-round performance on court, with a 38 mm profile, a weight of 350–370 g and a medium balance.

Power Balance: one racket, several balances

The big new feature of the RAPTOR+ Red is the Power Balance system, built into the frame. With weights of different grams, you can change the weight distribution and adapt the balance to your style.

It includes 2 weights of 4 g and 2 weights of 2 g, which can be combined up to a maximum of 12 g, to add hitting power, fine-tune control or find your exact balance. This weight system lets you tilt the racket towards more power or more control.
