Enebe Combat Ultrasoft Azul 2021

Introduction

A round, medium-soft Enebe for players who want control and quick swings without hurting their arm.

Shape & Balance

The round shape gives you a large sweet spot and a head-light balance. This makes the racket easy to control and maneuver during quick exchanges.

You won't get the whip effect of a diamond shape, but you'll enjoy stability and precision on every shot. It's a classic choice for players who value placement over power.

Grip

The standard handle fits comfortably in your hand, though the grip size might feel thin if you wear thick overgrips. During a long match, the medium-soft feel reduces vibration, so your forearm stays relaxed.

You won't notice much fatigue, making it ideal for players who play several times a week.

Power & Control

The power rating of 6.1 is on the low side, so don't expect bombs. You'll need to swing faster to hit deep, but the soft core helps you absorb pace and place the ball with purpose.

Control sits at 6.3, which is moderate. It's not a surgeon's scalpel, but it's reliable for directing rallies and pushing opponents around the court.

Comfort & Speed

A maneuverability score of 9/10 means this racket is a joy to swing. You can react quickly at the net and change directions without the racket feeling heavy.

The medium-soft feel, combined with the EVA HR3 Soft Black core, makes it one of the more comfortable rackets you'll try. It absorbs shock well, so your elbow and shoulder stay happy even after a tough session.

Materials & Durability

The fiberglass frame and faces give this racket a flexible, forgiving feel. Fiberglass isn't as strong as carbon fiber, so you might see surface scratches over time—normal for this material.

The EVA HR3 Soft Black core is durable and maintains its softness over many matches. Just avoid banging it on the court, like any padel racket.

Analysis

The Combat Ultrasoft is built for control, not power. Its round shape and soft feel make it forgiving on off-center hits, which is why maneuvering feels so easy.

You get a decent sweet spot and a very high rebound, so the ball bounces off the face quickly even when you don't swing hard. That extra pop helps in defense but won't win you points from the back of the court.

With power at 6.1 and control at 6.3, this racket is balanced but leans slightly toward placement over force. You'll need to generate your own pace on smashes and aggressive shots.

It suits intermediate players who favor a tactical, precise game. Beginners will appreciate the comfort and forgiveness, but advanced power hitters will find it lacking.

If you're used to stiff, heavy rackets, the soft feel might take some adjustment. But for anyone with elbow issues, this is a smart choice.
