Choosing the right racket is about more than choosing the most powerful or advanced option. It should suit how you play, where you like to play on court, and what you want from your game.

KUVA rackets are available in three distinct shapes — Round, Teardrop and Diamond — each designed for a different type of player.

ROUND

Control. Comfort. Confidence.

The Round is the most forgiving shape in the KUVA range.

Its larger, more central sweet spot makes it easier to produce clean, controlled contact and gives you confidence when defending, returning difficult balls or constructing points.

Best for:
Players who prioritise control, consistency and manoeuvrability.

Choose the Round if you:

• Prefer placement over outright power
• Spend plenty of time defending or building points
• Want a forgiving sweet spot
• Value confidence and consistency
• Are developing your game and want a racket that works with you

Playing style: Control / Defensive / All-court
Forgiveness: ★★★★★
Control: ★★★★★
Power: ★★★☆☆

TEARDROP

Balance without compromise.

The Teardrop sits between the Round and Diamond, combining control and manoeuvrability with increased attacking potential.

For many players, it is the natural all-round choice. It gives you enough control to defend confidently while providing the additional leverage and power needed when you move forward and attack.

Best for:
All-court players who want a genuine balance between control and power.

Choose the Teardrop if you:

• Want one racket that can do everything
• Regularly transition between defence and attack
• Like controlled volleys but still want authority overhead
• Don't want to sacrifice control for power
• Are unsure which KUVA shape to choose

Playing style: All-court / Versatile
Forgiveness: ★★★★☆
Control: ★★★★☆
Power: ★★★★☆

DIAMOND

Attack with intent.

The Diamond is designed for players who want maximum attacking potential.

Its shape places more emphasis towards the upper part of the racket, giving aggressive players additional leverage through volleys, viboras, bandejas and finishing shots.

It rewards good timing and technique with greater attacking performance, but demands more from the player than the Round or Teardrop.

Best for:
Confident attacking players who want to dictate points and finish opportunities.

Choose the Diamond if you:

• Naturally play an aggressive game
• Spend a lot of time at the net
• Want maximum performance from overhead shots
• Generate consistent, clean contact
• Prioritise attacking potential over forgiveness

Playing style: Attack / Power
Forgiveness: ★★★☆☆
Control: ★★★☆☆
Power: ★★★★★

Still Not Sure?

Use this simple rule:

Maximum control → ROUND

The best balance of everything → TEARDROP

Maximum attacking potential → DIAMOND

There is no universally "best" racket.

The best KUVA racket is the one that complements your game.

Once you've chosen the shape that best suits your game, the final choice is between Stealth and Aurum.

Both ranges are built around the same KUVA performance philosophy, but they express it very differently. Stealth has a darker, more technical character, with its exposed forged-carbon aesthetic giving it a purposeful, understated and motorsport-inspired appearance.

Aurum takes a more luxurious approach, combining performance with distinctive gold detailing and a more refined visual presence.

The choice between them is therefore less about which is "better" and more about which one feels more like you.

Stealth → Technical. Aggressive. Understated.
Aurum → Refined. Distinctive. Luxurious.
