The 2025 version of the best-selling Oxdog Ultimate Match! Previous versions of this racket have been incredibly popular due to the optimal mix of comfort, power, and control, and that's exactly what Oxdog carries forward in the 2025 version.
The Oxdog Ultimate Match is molded in the diamond shape like others in the Ultimate series, but with a neutral balance and a soft foam core. These factors play a crucial role in the racket's large sweet spot and comfort. At the same time, the racket is easier to control compared to the stiffer versions, which is why Oxdog categorizes the Ultimate Match more as a control racket than a power racket, which the diamond shape would typically suggest.

Ultimate Series
Ultimate is Oxdog's power series, where an innovative diamond shape provides plenty of power in your game. The series is designed for the offensive player who loves to put pressure on the opponent and take control of the rallies.
Technologies
Oxdog prides itself on being a leader in technology and has successfully implemented several features focused on helping you perform at your best.
PowerRibs: Placed at the top of the racket, PowerRibs ensure more power without requiring additional effort. This technology, combined with Oxdog’s High Energy System™ carbon, transfers the power from your shot to greater ball speed while reducing vibrations.
Racket Balance System (RBS): This system includes two removable weights that allow you to adjust the weight and balance of the racket to suit your personal preferences. For example, you can reduce the racket’s weight for enhanced maneuverability.
Silent Speed: The HES-Carbon frame ensures that the energy from your shot is transferred directly to the ball, resulting in a significantly quieter sound on impact.
HES Carbon 8K: In addition to maximizing energy transfer for more power, HES carbon also contributes to extended durability for the racket's carbon fibers.
Double Size Hole Pattern (DSH): The Double Size Hole Pattern provides significantly improved ball contact. When hitting off-center, many top rackets penalize you with poor contact, but this technology enhances playability off-center while maximizing power.
Vibradamp: In addition to improving off-center ball contact, Oxdog's Vibradamp system reduces vibrations in the racket. The three-layer design minimizes strain on your wrist, elbow, and shoulder, making it a great option for preventing or managing injuries in these areas.
Side Ports: Air channels are integrated into the heart of the racket for improved maneuverability and reduced air resistance.
Dural Moulded: The frame is made with Dural Moulding technology for extra durability and performance.
3 Tips on How to Extend the Lifespan of Your Padel Racket
Use a frame protector
Apply a frame protector to your racket to minimize damage from hits against the glass walls or the fence. This simple addition can significantly extend the lifespan of your racket by protecting it from knocks and scratches.
Avoid extreme temperatures
Store your racket in a room with stable temperatures. Avoid leaving it in a hot car or a cold garage, as extreme temperatures can weaken the materials and affect the racket’s performance over time.
Transport your racket safely
Always keep your racket in a bag or a cover to protect it from scratches, dirt, and knocks. This is especially important when traveling or storing the racket between games, as proper storage reduces wear and tear.
3 Tips on How to Get the Most Out of Your Padel Racket
Choose the right racket for your level and style
Pick a racket that suits your playing level and preferred style of play. Beginners might benefit from a racket with a larger sweetspot, while advanced players often prefer a more precise or powerful racket tailored to their game.
Replace your overgrip regularly
Changing the overgrip frequently keeps your racket feeling fresh and ensures a firm, comfortable grip. Worn-out grips can lead to slipping and strain on your hand during play.
Upgrade your racket when needed
Over time, the foam in the core of the racket loses its performance, resulting in reduced power and control. If you’ve used the same racket for several seasons or notice a drop in performance, consider investing in a new one to maintain your game at its best.
