Wilson Endure Pro V1 Padel Racket (2026)

Padelful calls it a control-first round racket with a firm feel, sharp bite on bandejas and calm blocking at the net. The rough 3K carbon surface adds grip on the ball, and the sweet spot is wide for a round shape.

The downsides are the flip side of that firmness: little free depth when you are stretched, little easy power on the attack, and mishits are punished. It is a racket for a player who already makes clean contact.

Retailers describe a low balance, which suits quick hands at the net, while Padelful calls it medium, neither whippy nor clumsy. Weight is 365 g on every sheet we saw, and the shape is round throughout. One listing calls it power-focused, which contradicts the control-first descriptions everywhere else, and Padelful's own power score is the third highest of its ratings.

Our catalogue tags it round with a low balance and an intermediate to advanced level. For the look and feel in your hand, trust the listing you buy from over any single label.

All three 2026 Endure rackets are round with a Control Sandwich Foam core. The Endure V1 is the medium-soft step down, and both it and the Endure LS V1 use a carbon and glass face and suit less experienced players. The LS is the lightest at 355 g. For a softer round racket from Wilson at a lower level, see the Optix V2 Lite.

Beginners, players who want easy power and anyone with a sore elbow, since a firm 365 g racket transmits more than a soft one. Our beginner padel rackets page starts gentler, and our control padel rackets, intermediate padel rackets and advanced padel rackets pages cover the next steps.
