Adidas padel balls

Adidas padel balls

Adidas makes two padel balls with different playing characters. Both are fast, FIP-approved and designed for players who want to play at a high pace.

Adidas Speed RX

The Speed RX is the fastest ball in the Adidas range. The high density of the rubber core produces a lively, high bounce and a direct response on every contact. The ball feels reactive and holds its pressure well for a synthetic ball. This makes it suitable for both training and match play, but it is most at home with players who attack actively and want a high tempo. On slower courts, the Speed RX adds extra pace. On faster courts or in high ambient temperatures, it plays very fast.

Adidas Serie+ Tour

The Serie+ Tour is slightly less fast than the Speed RX but has a more balanced playing character. FIP-approved and usable in both recreational and competitive play. The combination of consistent bounce and stable felt makes it a reliable choice for players who do not want to switch ball type every session.

Who are Adidas padel balls for?

Adidas padel balls suit players who play at a high tempo, want to be attacking and do not want a slow ball. On slow courts or in humid conditions, the Speed RX significantly boosts the pace of play. Players looking for more control or playing in variable conditions should also consider Bullpadel or Wilson.

Fresh balls and pressure retention

Drop an Adidas ball from hip height. Does it bounce back to knee height? It is still good. If the bounce drops, the ball gives less feedback and you start hitting harder, which loads the arm. Store opened balls in a pressure keeper for longer use.

Frequently asked questions

The Speed RX is faster with a higher density rubber core for a more direct, lively bounce. The Serie+ Tour is slightly calmer in character, more balanced and broadly applicable. Both are FIP-approved.

Are Adidas padel balls suitable for beginners?

Adidas padel balls are fast in character. For absolute beginners still building technique, slower or softer balls are sometimes more comfortable. Intermediate and advanced players get the most out of Adidas.
