The Instagram survey carried out by Padel Magazine is clear : you are more than 80% estimate that the padel is more expensive than tennis.
Two elements particularly stand out in your comments:
First, the snowshoes padel, which diligent players must replace regularly. You believe that these rackets lack strength and deteriorate over time, even without being broken.
To extend the life of your equipment, it is advisable to protect it with accessories for racket “edges” or “edges”, easily available commercially. Another important tip: avoid leaving your racket in the trunk of the car, playing in the rain, or exposing it to the sun for hours.
The other major expense item concerns slope rental. Naturally, the closer you get to major cities, the higher the prices. A little tip: try to buy tickets in advance. Many clubs offer packages for regular players, such as packs of 10 or 20 prepaid hours. Some clubs even offer annual memberships, but how they work varies a lot from one club to another.
