Miguel Lamperti's ML10 Ventus Control is considered by many testers to be the best control racket on the market: Testea voted it control winner two years in a row. A round shape, large sweet spot, 3K carbon and the HR3 core make a calm, predictable feel with outstanding comfort that rewards tactical, intelligent padel.
At 365 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; plus the medium balance as the all-round standard. The medium-hard core balances feedback and comfort. With power 6 and control 9 out of 10, it is clearly built for precision.
With a forgiveness rating of 7.4 out of 10, it is easy-going, even though 74% of the round models in our comparison leave even more margin for error. 4 of the 21 shops in our comparison stock this racket, with prices from €129.50 to €169.98 – a €40 difference for the same model.

Not by our rule: the core is medium-hard, 365 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.
