Xcalion Padel Range Explained
Xcalion Padel Racket Range in the UK
Xcalion is still a new name for a lot of players in the UK. They manufacture in Spain with a digitalised, robotised process, and every racket is built around their exclusive ALMA carbon. The range sits roughly 312g to 333g without grip and wrist strap, with tight weight consistency.
We are excited to be the sole distributor for Xcalion in the UK and Ireland. Right now, NINEPADEL is the only place to get them here.
Xcalion also push durability hard. Their impact testing matches what you feel in the hand: solid, tight, and precise.
What Makes Xcalion Different
A few things separate these from a normal premium carbon racket:
- ALMA carbon: denser fibre structure, dry precise feel, strong ball output, low vibration
- Weight: properly light, from about 312g on the Infinity H1
- Feel: medium/hard Black EVA across the Unum and Infinity lines
- 3D XC face: textured surface for grip and spin
- Build: monocoque construction, made in Spain
Which Xcalion Should You Buy?
Choose control, hybrid all-round performance, attacking power, or the lighter technical Infinity option.
Where To Buy Xcalion Padel Rackets

Xcalion Unum S1 Control
The Unum S1 is the control racket. Round shape, medium-low balance, large sweet spot, around 313g without grip or strap.
This is the one if you want the racket to stay out of the way. Quick in defence, easy at the net, and accurate when you are placing rather than blasting. The medium/hard core still gives a clean, reactive response, so it does not feel dead. Just light and precise.
Best for: beginners and intermediates who want maximum manoeuvrability, or higher-level players who prefer a true control setup.
Xcalion Unum M1 Hybrid
The Unum M1 is the all-rounder. Hybrid shape, medium balance, around 323g.
If someone asked us where to start in this range, this would be the first racket we put in their hand. Comfortable enough to defend, quick enough in the corners, and enough presence through the ball when you step in to finish. Same ALMA build and medium/hard Black EVA as the rest of the Unum line.
Best for: club players and intermediates who want one racket that covers the whole court.
Xcalion Unum H1 Power
The Unum H1 is the first clear attacking step. Around 333g without grip or strap, still light by normal padel standards, with a more aggressive medium/high balance so you can accelerate through volleys, viboras and overheads without swinging a heavy diamond.
It suits players who want to finish more points but do not want a head-heavy power racket slowing them down when the exchange gets messy.
Best for: intermediates and advanced players moving toward a more attacking game
Xcalion Unum+ H1 Power
The Unum+ H1 sits above the Unum H1 as the more serious power option in the Unum family. Around 321g, medium/high balance, diamond-leaning attacking setup.
More punch on smashes and aggressive volleys, while the overall weight stays low enough that it still feels fast through the air. Large sweet spot for a power racket.
Best for: technical intermediate to advanced players who want lightweight power and a firm, precise feel.
Xcalion Infinity H1 Power
The Infinity H1 is the top of the range. Around 312g without grip or strap.
Xcalion’s idea here is unusual: attacking performance with a medium-low balance and a large sweet spot. You get power from racket speed rather than from a heavy head. Firm, crisp, precise. It rewards clean technique.
This is for advanced players who already generate their own speed and want something that feels different from a traditional carbon power racket.
Best for: advanced attackers who care about manoeuvrability as much as power.
