How to choose your Tecnifibre padel ball?

Unlike some other major padel brands, Tecnifibre does not bother creating numerous models and has instead chosen to simplify its range. 2 types of balls are available. The Tecnifibre Team are the softer balls in the range. They are recommended mainly for beginners and offer a lower, more controllable bounce. They are also slightly under-pressurised to improve the bounce and avoid silly beginner mistakes as much as possible. 

On the other hand, the Tecnifibre Tour are stiffer balls that are slightly more pressurised. The idea here is to better feel the stiffness of the balls and the shots, so this type of ball is ideal for powerful overhead shots such as smashes or viboras, for example. However, be aware that this type of ball is rather reserved for experienced players, as the bounce and the feeling at impact can sometimes be uncontrollable or even uncomfortable, and can lead to more unforced errors.
