Whether you're new to squash or an experienced player, we can make it easy for you to find the perfect racket for your game!

1. Tecnifibre Carboflex 125 X-Top

Used by Mohamed El Shorbagy!

  • Weight: 125g
  • Balance: Even

With the design inspired by Mohamed El Shorbagy, the Carboflex X-Top uses a new revolutionary design. Tecnifibre removed the plastic bumper from the top of the racket and replaced it with aramid fibres (the same materials used in bullet-proof vests) and added PTFE (Teflon) within the frame for maximum shock resistance. This racket cuts through the air quicker than its predecessors for even more power and playability. The X-Top also comes pre-strung in Tecnifibre's premium Dynamix V.P string as standard for maximum power. This racket is also available in 130, 135 and Junior models. 

“This racket is a gamechanger! Watch my full review on YouTube here to hear more. Consistently one of our topsellers, this iconic racket is used by many top pros!”

Reasons to buy: You're looking to improve your performance on court with one of the best squash rackets on the market.
Reasons not to buy: You're a beginner or more budget-conscious.

2. Head Speed 120 Slimbody 2023

So good it was used by the former World no.1 Paul Coll!

  • Weight: 120g
  • Balance: Even

As previously used by the 2021 British Open Champion and World No.3 (January 2024), Paul Coll, this racket is a rival to the Tecnifibre Carboflex 125 X-Top. The updated Auxetic technology offers an enhanced feel over its predecessor and the improved frame design allows the strings to move more resulting in extra power. The Adaptive Fan Stringing Pattern also allows you to string for more power or more control (it comes strung for power from factory).

“A very cool choice! I absolutely love the look of this racket and it performs equally well”

Reasons to buy: You want one of the best looking and highest performance squash rackets available for 2024!
