[caption id="attachment_10333" align="alignnone" width="798"] Eclypse 2020 Collection[/caption] The new collection of Eclypse padel rackets has been presented, and as expected, it is much better than the previous edition. The brand's most iconic rackets (Lunar, Solar, and Total) have been renewed to improve performance. The Street Padel blog is pleased to share a complete and detailed analysis, so that players can find the racket that best suits their playing style.

Technical characteristics of the new Eclypse 2020 racket collection

All rackets in the Eclypse 2020 collection share the same materials and technical characteristics. Their differences lie solely in their format, balance, and, consequently, their playing style. All belong to the brand's high-end and are aimed at intermediate-advanced players. The rackets have a frame of combined composition: half carbon fiber and half fiberglass. This blend aims to find a good balance in benefits. The rigidity of carbon and the flexibility of fiberglass allow for a good balance between resistance, power, and maneuverability. On the other hand, the hitting surfaces are made of fiberglass. This material is strong, but it is also known to have a good level of flexibility, which makes it comfortable when hitting. Another feature present in the faces is the sandy finish. It aims to increase the ball's grip to improve spins. Now that we know all the features that the rackets share, it's time to get into the details that make them different. As we have already mentioned, each of the rackets is intended for a specific type of player. Find the one that suits your playing style.

Eclypse Lunar 3.0

This is an absolute control racket, ideal for players who are looking for a manageable and comfortable playing style. The Lunar 3.0 features a round format with a medium-low balance. These characteristics make it easy to control, as the sweet spot is wide and the weights are concentrated on the handle of the racket.

Eclypse Lunar 3.0 Woman, the female Eclypse 2020 racket

This racket is identical to the Lunar 3.0, but it is exclusively for women. In terms of format, balance, and materials, it is exactly the same. It is also a round-shaped control racket with a medium-low balance, for a manageable and precise game. The only difference, apart from a feminine design, is its weight. This racket has a reduced weight, reaching only 345 grams. This makes it the lightest racket in the collection.

Eclypse Solar 3.0

The new Eclypse Solar 3.0 is a power racket, ideal for offensive players looking for a more aggressive and impactful game. The characteristics that allow this power are mainly found in its teardrop format and its medium-high balance. In this way, the weights are concentrated in the highest part to make the head heavier, allowing more force to be applied to the shot. This racket has a special characteristic that distinguishes it from the others. The bridge has a rigid horizontal arm that aims to eliminate vibrations due to impacts. As it is a power racket, vibrations are usually higher than those of a control racket.

Eclypse Total 3.0

The Eclypse 2020 racket collection culminates with the powerful Total 3.0, the versatile racket. This racket is versatile and adapts to all players and playing styles. Its main objective is to find the perfect balance between control and power. This is achieved with a teardrop format and a medium balance, the weights are perfectly balanced between the head and the grip to combine maneuverability and power.
