The \"Light\" designation suggests Royal Padel has worked to keep the swing weight accessible, which typically means a lower or medium balance point. That kind of balance helps with quick exchanges at the net and reduces arm fatigue during long sessions. Without confirmed details on shape, core, and face material, it would be unfair to make specific claims, but Royal Padel's general range leans toward EVA cores and fibreglass or carbon faces depending on the tier, so check the full spec sheet before buying if those details matter to your decision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are a beginner, 400g may feel tiring after a full match, and you would likely benefit more from something in the 360-375g range. Equally, if you are an advanced player chasing maximum power from a diamond-shaped head, this probably is not your tool.

The 400g weight adds mass behind each shot, which helps when you are defending hard smashes or looking to drive the ball with pace from mid-court.

That shorter frame makes it easier to generate clean contact and develop proper stroke mechanics before moving to a full-size racket. Beyond the sizing, Royal Padel is a Spanish brand with solid credentials in the padel world, and their junior and light range tends to prioritise durability and playability over cutting-edge materials.

A 400g weight combined with what is likely a high or medium-high balance means the sweet spot sits toward the top of the frame, which amplifies power on smashes and flat drives when you connect cleanly.
