RS Padel Prime Team Light 2.0

Technologies

Pros

• ✓At 350-360 g with a medium-low balance and the Dynamic Hex profile, the racket gets to net volleys and defensive changes of pace quickly without tiring the forearm. The fibreglass face over a soft EVA core gives a very generous ball exit: the bandeja and the lob come off with a short arm swing and no need to hit hard. The Power Holes widen the sweet spot, so slightly off-centre contacts, typical of a rushed block or a hurried wall exit, still travel with reasonable depth. The Axis Force stabiliser cuts vibration after impact, which is welcome in long matches and on sharp shots such as the flat smash or the blocked volley. The rough surface helps bite the ball on the vibora and the sliced bandeja, and the extra-long handle lets you move your hand up or play two-handed in defence.

Cons

• ✗Power is moderate: on the flat smash and the x3 smash the racket adds no acceleration of its own, so speed depends almost entirely on the player's arm and preparation. At 350-360 g with a soft core, the racket can get pushed around by very heavy balls; on blocks against hard hitters it may feel less stable than a racket with more mass. The easy ball exit demands some calibration: players coming from a hard racket may overhit the lob or the bandeja until they adjust the force of their swing.

RS Padel Prime Team Light 2.0: 350-360 g, a 38mm frame, a fibreglass face and Dynamic Hex in a teardrop padel racket built to reach everything without punishing your arm. It is the light, soft and forgiving version of the Prime Team family, aimed at recreational and competitive players.

Who Is the RS Padel Prime Team Light 2.0 For?

It suits the intermediate player with a versatile game who prioritises maneuverability and forgiveness: a manageable weight of 350-360 g, a soft EVA core and a fibreglass face that deliver easy ball exit and a wide sweet spot. Anyone after a dry, hard hit will find less bite here.

The profile fits someone who plays several matches a week and wants a racket that doesn't take its toll on the shoulder or elbow. It also works for the competitive player who values reaction speed at the net over mass.

RS Padel Prime Team Light 2.0 Specs: Light, Soft and Medium-Low Balance

The teardrop shape spreads the mass between the centre and the hitting zone, and the medium-low balance keeps the racket agile in the hand. This is not a head-heavy racket: it feels light and easy to handle from the very first shot.

Dynamic Hex, Axis Force and Power Holes: What They Change in Your Hand

The Dynamic Hex profile is what you notice most from day to day. It improves maneuverability, so switching from forehand to backhand, closing a volley or setting up a bandeja takes less wrist effort.

The Axis Force stabiliser works in a different way: it reduces the vibration that travels up the arm after impact. On a sharp shot, such as a blocked volley or a flat smash, the racket feels cleaner and less jittery.

The Power Holes widen the sweet spot. In practice, a slightly off-centre ball, typical of a rushed block or a wall exit with little time, keeps a usable response instead of dying in the net.

The combination of a fibreglass face and a soft EVA core explains the ball exit. The face flexes easily and the soft core returns the energy without demanding a long swing. It is a racket that helps anyone who only just gets to the ball.

How the Prime Team Light 2.0 Plays: Bandeja, Vibora, Defence and Wall Exits

On the bandeja and the vibora, the rough finish and the flexible face give grip to slice the ball and control depth without over-moving the arm. Control is good, although the generous ball exit invites you to measure your swing.

In defence, the manageable weight and extra-long handle let you react quickly to balls hit at your body. Coming off the wall, the wide sweet spot forgives late contact and sends back a deep ball without much effort.

The volley is another comfortable area: the racket gets into position fast and the stabiliser filters the impact. For the lob, the easy exit from the face lets you lift the ball with a short motion.

Where the racket gives ground is the smash. On a flat smash or an x3 smash, power is moderate: the ball leaves through arm strength and timing, not the mass of the racket. And against very heavy balls, 350-360 g calls for well-placed blocks.

Who Gets the Most Out of This RS Padel Teardrop Racket?

The ideal player is intermediate, plays a versatile game and values reaching every ball comfortably. It suits anyone who carries arm niggles or wants long sessions without fatigue.

With a big-hitting partner, this racket works as a complement: it brings speed at the net and consistency from the back of the court. If your partner also plays a light game, someone needs to take on the finishing.

Players who need more mass to finish points will find more room in the Prime Team Edition 2.0, the heaviest racket in the same line. Anyone who prefers a dry, hard-hitting racket should look at a different family.
