Our impression
Fast, lively round racket with a noticeable carbon bite: made from 3K carbon for high durability as well as extra power and control – ideal for players who like fast hand battles and counters at the net.
At 362 g, it is mid-range in our comparison – light enough for quick volleys, heavy enough to take hard balls with stability. Head shape Round means: a large, central sweet spot – lots of control and forgiveness, little power of its own; the low balance makes it feel more manoeuvrable than its weight suggests. The medium-hard core balances feedback and comfort. With power 5 and control 7 out of 10, it is clearly built for precision.
With a forgiveness rating of 8.6 out of 10, it is more forgiving than 58% of the round models in our comparison. Medium-hard core and low balance: only 23 of the 507 models we compare have this combination. 4 of the 21 shops in our comparison stock this racket, with prices from €58.95 to €96.49 – a €38 difference for the same model.
Who is the Black Crown Snake for?
Intermediate players who put quick reflexes at the net and counter-play first.

Is the Black Crown Snake arm-friendly?
Not by our rule: the core is medium-hard, 362 g is above 360 g. We only call rackets arm-friendly if they have a soft core, a balance that isn't head-heavy, a round or teardrop shape and weigh 360 g at most. Suitable models are listed in our guide to padel rackets for tennis elbow.
