Sweet spot high in the head. Built for power, less forgiving off-centre.
VantaPadel racket · 2026Pro Black
A head-heavy diamond with a stiff 18K carbon face and a firm Multi EVA core. Built for attacking players who take the net early and finish points.
You'll love it if you want a proper attacking diamond with a head-heavy balance, and you like a firm, direct feel on contact.

Spec sheet
Middle of the range. A good mix of speed and weight behind the ball.
Weight sits towards the head. More power, a bit harder on the arm.
Hard core. Fast off the face for players who hit hard.
Textured face. More bite on the ball for slice and spin.
Carbon face. Stiffer and more precise, rewards a fast swing.
Is it your racket?
We'd rather you buy the right one than this one.
You'll love it if
- you want a proper attacking diamond with a head-heavy balance
- you like a firm, direct feel on contact
- you look to finish points with smashes, viboras and volleys
Maybe not if
- you want something more balanced day to day, try the Full Black
- you're still building consistency, the One Black is kinder
The VANTA Pro Black 2026 is the top of Vanta’s Irish-designed Black range. Diamond shape, high (head-heavy) balance, and a stiff 18K carbon face mean the ball comes off hard when you accelerate into smashes, viboras and finishing volleys.
Inside, the Multi EVA (38/13/38) core is layered and firmer than the Full and One. You get a direct, powerful response without the racket going soft in long rallies. Thickness sits at 38 mm, weight 360–370 g, length 455 mm. The 3D embossed Vanta logo on the face adds grip for spin when you want to shape the ball.
This is for advanced players who already play offensive and can find the sweet spot. Off-centre mishits are less forgiving than a round control racket. If you want something more balanced day to day, look at the Full Black. If you’re still building consistency, the One Black is the kinder option.
