How the Redstone 2026 Padel Racket plays
Diamond power without the head weight. An 18K carbon attacker that stays quick in your hand.
The Hirostar Redstone 2026 Padel Racket is a diamond padel racket weighing 365–380 g with a low-medium balance, an 18K Carbon face and a Black EVA 17 core. It suits advanced players with an attacking game built around smashes, viboras and pressure at the net.
Our ratings are a buying guide based on each racket's build and how it plays, not lab measurements.
Pick it if
- You finish points at the net with smashes, viboras and hard volleys
- Your technique is consistent and you generate your own pace
- You want maximum ball exit on overheads
Look elsewhere if
- You need a big, forgiving sweet spot. Try a round racket
- You are new to padel. See rackets by level
- You prefer a light racket for long sessions
Description
The Hirostar Redstone 2026 takes a diamond racket and does something unusual with it. You still get the explosive ball exit that the diamond geometry and the 18K carbon face are built for, but without the arm load and the slow repositioning that comes with a top heavy frame. The Black EVA 17 core keeps the response firm and reactive. This is the Hirostar for players who want to dictate the rally through precision and controlled aggression rather than sheer overhead force, and it is noticeably kinder on the elbow than a conventional power diamond.

Weights are nominal. Grips, overgrips and protectors add a few grams to any racket.
Questions players ask
What makes the Hirostar Redstone different from the other Hirostar diamonds?
Its balance. Most diamond rackets concentrate weight high in the head. The Redstone keeps the diamond geometry but distributes weight closer to the handle, so it is more manoeuvrable and easier on the arm than a high balance model.
Is the Hirostar Redstone good for players with elbow problems?
It is friendlier than a typical power diamond because the lower balance reduces the load on the arm, and the anti-vibration bridge absorbs shock at the throat. It is still a firm 18K carbon racket, so it is not a substitute for a soft control frame.
What level is the Hirostar Redstone for?
Advanced players. The diamond shape and 18K carbon construction need developed technique and reliable timing.
Redstone or Blackstone, which should I choose?
Both are 18K carbon diamonds with a Black EVA 17 core. The Redstone has a lower balance and is quicker in the hand, suiting precision and fast exchanges. The Blackstone has a medium to high balance, so it loads more weight into overheads and attacking volleys.
