What Are the Top Rated Racquetball Racquets?

Because each individual has a slightly different play style, no single racquet can satisfy every player's needs. However, most professional racquetball players choose racquets from a group of six top manufacturers.

  1. E-Force

    • E-Force racquets are the powerhouse of the racquetball world. The Command series has seen substantial success through its Power Flex technology. The longer shaft allows for more whip and also creates greater stability with less vibration.

    Ektelon

    • The O3 racquets produced by Ektelon boast the ability to change the weight and balance through Power Plug technology. The EXO3 racquets also feature technology that improves stability and reduces shock.

    Gearbox

    • Gearbox's GB 250 series offers a balance of power and control. The racquets are constructed out of high quality graphite and come in a range of weights.

    Head

    • Head's racquets not only come with interesting names (Problem Child, Mean Streak and Dirty Deed) but also boast increased stiffness, greater stability and minimal shock.

    Pro Kennex

    • The Kinetic Quad series by Pro Kennex provides higher control through a stiff frame, while the newest HC2 is less stiff, providing smoother play.

    Wilson

    • Wilson produces the RX series, which features its proprietary K factor technology. This technology creates stability and increases maneuverability. The RX 165 and 175 sport increased power, while the 160 and 170 maintain a balance of power and control.
