Who this racket is for

The adipower 3.2 is designed for competition or pro-level players who prioritise performance and precision over comfort. Its diamond shape moves the sweet spot to the top of the face, giving more leverage and power at the cost of some tolerance. The high balance adds weight to the swing and pushes the racket toward an offensive profile. The hard build favours explosive shots, especially bandeja and smash, but demands more technique. Its 360-375g weight range places it in the medium-weight group, the most common among amateur players.

Pros

  • Diamond shape and head-heavy balance maximise overhead power and drive depth
  • Wide sweet spot offers reliable forgiveness on imperfect strikes
  • Firm touch delivers crisp, precise feedback that advanced players will appreciate
  • Maximum power rating — generates devastating pace on finishing shots
  • Solid control aids tactical rally management and reliable groundstrokes

Cons

  • Head-heavy balance can fatigue the arm during extended play
  • Hard feel can put strain on the elbow — caution for injury-prone players
  • Less suited to defensive players who prefer head-light, round-shape rackets
