Collection: Padel Rackets

With our Try Before You Buy service, you receive second-hand demo equipment to test in real conditions — at home, on the court, or wherever you play. You’re free to scuff it, mark it, and really put it through its paces. After you’ve tried it, you can decide whether to keep it:

• purchase a brand-new version directly after returning the demo.
  
• discount code for selected retailers so you can buy it there.
  

This way, you can truly test the product without worrying about damaging it, and still get a new one if you love it.

Normally, no. You need to return the demo racket, as it’s purely for testing.The only exception is if we’ve sent you a brand new demo racket. In that case, we’ll notify you that the racket is available to purchase if you’d like to keep it.

This fee ensures you’re covered for the demo product and still have the option to buy the gear you love.

• your 7-day trial starts the day you receive the demo product.
