{"product_id":"babolat-air-origin","title":"Babolat Air Origin","description":"\u003ch2\u003eBabolat Air Origin\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Babolat Air Origin is a padel racket developed for beginner to recreational players who want to build their game on manoeuvrability, comfort and accessible power. This model is inspired by the Air line, but clearly tailored to players who are still working on technique and timing and want a light, easy-to-play racket. The Air Origin is not a match racket, nor is it a hard power racket. It is an accessible all-round entry-level model, focused on enjoyment and confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is this racket for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Babolat Air Origin is best suited to right-side players at beginner to recreational level who are working on rallies, basic placement and defensive play. The low weight and high manoeuvrability make this racket ideal for players who want to react quickly and struggle with heavier rackets. It is also suitable for left-side players who play recreationally and like to attack now and then, but don't want a hard or head-heavy racket. The racket suits both women and men.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hybrid (teardrop) shape places the sweet spot slightly above centre, which helps on attacking shots without losing control. The balance is medium, but thanks to the light frame the racket feels very manoeuvrable. The face is built from flexible materials (fibreglass) and has a soft feel. The face is clearly not hard, providing extra flex, a larger sweet spot and plenty of comfort. This makes the racket forgiving and arm-friendly. The core is made of soft EVA rubber, which effectively dampens vibrations and keeps the racket pleasant to play during longer sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeel and performance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn court, the Babolat Air Origin feels light, smooth and very forgiving. In rallies you play with plenty of composure and confidence, while the racket helps you return the ball easily and in a controlled way. In defensive situations the racket reacts quickly and stays predictable, even on off-centre hits. In attack you can accelerate in a controlled manner, but the racket remains clearly focused on playability and control rather than brute power. That makes the Air Origin an excellent choice for players looking for a light, comfortable all-round entry-level racket with a soft face and high playability, from the Babolat range.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Babolat","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68037301108980,"sku":"BA-AO","price":237.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0790\/2724\/1204\/files\/babolat-air-origin_1.jpg?v=1793793716","url":"https:\/\/nz.justpadel.com\/products\/babolat-air-origin","provider":"Justpadel Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
