Who this racket is for
The Royal Padel RP 779 Whip EVA 2024 is designed for competition or pro-level players who prioritise performance and precision over comfort. Its round shape concentrates the sweet spot in the center of the face, increasing tolerance and favouring control. The medium balance keeps a balanced behaviour between baseline shots and volleys. 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
- ✓Strong power output at rating 9 with the added sweet spot coverage of a round shape

- ✓Round shape provides better control than typical diamond power rackets at the same level
- ✓Rough surface generates effective topspin and slice on attacking drives and serves
- ✓Even balance keeps maneuverability accessible for transition from defensive to attacking positions
Cons
- ✗Hard touch core can be demanding on the arm — not suitable for players with elbow issues
- ✗Lower ball exit speed at 7 requires clean technique to generate sufficient pace on hard drives
