Lok Easy Hype Gen 2 2026

Introduction

The Lok Easy Hype Gen 2 is a diamond-shaped power padel racket for advanced players who want to end points fast.

Shape & Balance

The diamond shape moves the balance toward the head, so the racket feels top-heavy. That adds power — you sense the weight doing the work.

Your swing will be less maneuverable than with round shapes. Be ready for a heavier feel and more effort to bring the racket around when defending.

Grip

The standard handle feels solid, but with 360-375gr, your hand and wrist will work hard during long matches. Some players might want an overgrip for extra cushioning.

After an hour of play, fatigue can set in if you're not strong. Take breaks and keep your grip relaxed to avoid strain.

Power & Control

Power scores 8.6 — the head-heavy balance and rigid frame generate real speed and force on smash and flat shots. You'll notice a jump in ball speed.

Control stays high at 8.4, but you need precise footwork and quick hands. The sweet spot is generous (8.8), but if you're late, the ball can fly, so respect the power before you rely on control.

Comfort & Speed

Comfort is medium-soft, so each hit has a muted, dampened feel, not jarring. The EVA core and flex carbon faces help absorb shock.

Maneuverability scores 8 — that's good for a diamond racket. It's not a fast-twitch racket, though. Bring it around with intention, especially on volleys.

Materials & Durability

The frame uses carbon fiber, which is stiff and long-lasting. Facial layers are flex carbon, offering a bit of give to blend with the strength.

Core is EVA — that means it stays soft over time. Carbon builds resist breaking, so expect this racket to live through seasons if you don't drop it.

Analysis

At 360-375 grams, this is a heavy racket that rewards players who can swing it with full effort. The high rebound (9.8) is massive — the ball jumps off the face, so you can hit winners from anywhere on court if your timing is on.

You'll feel the stiffness in the carbon fiber frame and flex faces; it's not a free ride. But the medium-soft feel and EVA core do absorb some vibration, so shots stay controlled.

For skills, it scores high: power 8.6, control 8.4. In practice, that means you can hit through the court, but you need solid technique to place the ball precisely. Miss the sweet spot (8.8 broad, but still) and the racket will let you know.

This racket is not for beginners. The weight and diamond shape make it demanding — you tire fast and it's unforgiving on off-center hits. If you're an intermediate or advanced player who plays aggressively, it's a strong choice.

But if you value easy defense or need more forgiveness, look at round-shaped, lighter rackets. This one asks for commitment in every swing.
