Padel Racket Dunlop Galactica Lite (2025)

The Dunlop Galactica Lite 2025 is a refined lightweight padel racket for advanced players who want speed without sacrificing precision. Its 350g frame makes it noticeably easier to move than many premium carbon rackets, while the 16K carbon build, rough finish and medium balance keep it sharp enough for spin, counter-attacks and controlled finishing shots. It is not the most explosive Galactica model, but for players who value fast handling, touch and tactical variety, it is one of Dunlop’s most playable high-performance options.

• Weight: 350g — light enough for fast reactions, quick wrist work and easier defensive recovery without feeling flimsy.
• Texture: Rough Extra Grip surface, designed to help the ball bite on viboras, kick smashes and controlled slice volleys.
• Balance: Medium balance — gives the Galactica Lite a balanced blend of manoeuvrability, punch and stability through contact.
• Sweet Spot: Medium-to-generous sweet spot, helped by the hybrid head shape and Control Holes pattern for cleaner accuracy on off-centre shots.
• Playing Style: Best for all-court players who want a lighter premium racket for controlled attacking, spin-heavy transitions and fast net exchanges.
• Player Ability: Advanced players — especially those who want a technical racket that is easier to swing than a heavier power model.
• Racket Shape: Hybrid shape, sitting between round control and teardrop attacking performance.
• Racket Material: Premium 16K carbon/graphite construction with glassfibre elements for a responsive but not overly harsh feel.
• Racket Core: Soft EVA core, giving extra comfort, ball output and easier depth from slower defensive shots.
