The racket padel in the fridge: Crazy?

In summer, with the increase in temperatures, the foam of our snowshoe padel tends to loosen up a bit. We therefore have a different feeling in summer or in winter depending on the temperature at which we play.

If you have the feeling of having a much more flexible racket in summer than in winter, at Padel Magazine, We have the solution !

You might think it's crazy to put on your racket Padel in the fridge, but it can actually help.

The advantage of putting your racket in the fridge allows the foam to go down to a low temperature and recover some rigidity.

Advantages :
- More rigidity
- More control
- Less risk of breakage

The inconvenients :
- Little loss of elasticity of the foam
- Limited time

Conclusion:
In conclusion, do not abuse this principle. So do not leave your racket in the fridge for several days. This can give you more rigidity if you feel that your racket is too soft in the summer.

  • After I imagine that it is also necessary to avoid humidity, so check that it is a dry cold. After these tips do not surprise me, I came across a video of the Spanish coach Manu Martin who explained that it happened to them to pass balls in the microwave in the winter to have a ball a little less hard and more vivid for specific training.
