Usage advices
Instructions for use of your padel racquet safety strap
Our BABOLAT padel racquets are fitted with a safety strap which is standardised and compulsory according to the regulations of the International Padel Federation.
Its role is to prevent a potential incident by holding the racquet should it involuntarily slip out of the player’s hand.
The safety strap was designed exclusively for this function. Any other use, such as repeatedly dropping the racquet voluntarily during a rally, is likely to cause the premature deterioration of the strap which could lead to its separation from the handle.
Storage and maintenance instructions for your BABOLAT padel racquet
To ensure the longevity of your padel racquet and the preservation of its properties, we recommend to:
– Store it in a dry environment, away from direct sunlight and intense heat;
– Do not expose your rack to major temperature changes;
– Maintain it regularly, in particular by drying it carefully after a game if is damp before storing it in a protective cover;
