Oxdog Ultimate Woman Air Padel Racket

Shape decides the job here, not the weight. All three Woman Air rackets sit within 10g of each other, but the Pure Woman Air is a soft hybrid built for comfort, the Hyper Woman Air is a teardrop built for balanced all-court play, and this diamond is the one built to attack. A diamond's sweet spot sits higher on the face, which is what gives a smash more sting and asks for cleaner contact in return.

If you're choosing between the three, pick by how you play rather than by hand size alone: defend and build points, go Pure; want one racket for everything, go Hyper; finish points overhead, this is the one.

One retailer compares the two directly, and it's a fair comparison: both are 350g diamonds from Oxdog's Ultimate family. The difference is balance. This racket runs medium (Oxdog's own figure is 25.5cm from the throat), where the Ultimate Pro Light runs high. That medium balance makes this one noticeably quicker in the hand and easier to swing through a full match; the Pro Light trades some of that manoeuvrability for a faster-feeling head on the smash.

Oxdog also flags that this racket's sweet spot sits a touch lower on the face than some modern diamonds. Clean, centred contact still matters more than on a hybrid or teardrop, even with the lighter, friendlier balance.

Like its two Woman Air siblings, sources disagree on the removable weight screwed into the handle cap (Oxdog's RBS system). One retailer's spec sheet for this exact model gives it as 6g; the wider Oxdog range, including our already-published Hyper Pro+ 2.0 and Ultimate Pro Light pages, uses 8g as the norm. We've now seen this same conflict on all three Woman Air rackets, which suggests it's a real quirk of the series rather than a typo on one page, but we still can't confirm which figure is correct for this model without a brand source.

Intermediate and advanced players who want a diamond's power in a lighter, friendlier build: smaller or lighter players who find a full-weight diamond tiring, and anyone who wants to finish points overhead without the 365g-plus weight of Oxdog's unisex Ultimate rackets. Our women's padel rackets page lines up light rackets from every brand, and diamond padel rackets compares the shape across brands.

Fit the Oxdog No1 frame protector before your first session; diamonds clip the glass more than rounder shapes. Keep the handle fresh with the Oxdog Gold Pro overgrips, or browse every padel grip.

For balls, a tube of Oxdog Boost+ matches the racket, and our padel balls guide covers how quickly a tube loses its bounce. The Oxdog X Thermo backpack carries it with your kit, or see every padel bag, and add padel shoes built for sand-filled turf. For the full range, our padel racket hub covers every brand and shape, and the guide to choosing a padel racket explains balance and core hardness from scratch.
