💥LLEVAMOS al LÍMITE la NOX MM2 Pro en LABORATORIO y estos son LOS RESULTADOS | Testea Padel

Summary

In this video, Eros presents the comprehensive laboratory analysis of the M M2 padel racket, conducted at the Polytechnic University of Valencia. The testing examined weight, rigidity, homogeneity, sweet spot, stiffness, manageability, touch, vibrations, and resistance to breakage. Results confirm high quality, consistency between units, and excellent playability. The M M2 is designed for amateur to intermediate players, offering exceptional control and maneuverability, with customizable options like protectors and antennas to adjust power and balance. This detailed evaluation combines scientific precision with practical insights, helping players understand how the racket performs and how it can be tailored to their style and needs.

Takeaways

• 😀 The MM2 paddle was tested at the Polytechnic University of Valencia for both manufacturing quality and playability.
• 😀 Two paddles were analyzed, weighing 363g and 366g, showing medium-high face homogeneity.
• 😀 Characteristic curves indicate consistent response across paddles and a well-centered sweet spot for easier playability.
• 😀 The paddles passed resistance tests, withstanding a 70 cm drop without breaking, meeting quality standards.
• 😀 Playability tests were done in three configurations: standard, with protector, and with protector plus antennas.
• 😀 Balance increases with added components: 253mm standard, 257mm with protector, 258mm with protector and antennas.
• 😀 Stiffness is medium for both the face and frame, maintaining consistent performance across modifications.
• 😀 The standard paddle scores 950/1000 in manageability, emphasizing control and playability for amateur players.
• 😀 Adding weight or antennas increases power but reduces maneuverability and control.
• 😀 Vibrations are medium-low in the sweet spot, and the touch is medium-soft, suitable for comfort and injury prevention.
• 😀 The MM2 paddle is ideal for recreational players seeking control, playability, and comfort, rather than top-level competitive players.
• 😀 Laboratory and practical testing provide objective data to guide future paddle designs and player customization.

Q & A

What was the main purpose of the laboratory testing of the MM2 racket?

The main purpose was to analyze the MM2 racket from two perspectives: manufacturing quality, including parameters like weight, homogeneity, and rigidity, and playability, such as manageability, sweet spot, and ball control.

What were the weights of the two paddles tested in the laboratory?

Paddle A weighed 363 grams and Paddle B weighed 366 grams.

How was face homogeneity evaluated in the MM2 racket?

Face homogeneity was rated as medium-high, indicating consistent quality and performance between the two paddles tested.

What is the significance of the characteristic curve in racket testing?

The characteristic curve measures the response of the racket when hitting the ball. A flatter, more open curve indicates easier playability and a larger sweet spot, while a more pronounced V-shape indicates a smaller sweet spot, making the racket harder to play.

How did the MM2 rackets perform in resistance to breakage tests?

The rackets withstood a weight drop from 70 centimeters without breaking. At 80 centimeters, the frame started to break, which indicates a high level of durability.

What were the three configurations tested for playability?

The three configurations were: the standard racket, the racket with a protector, and the racket with a protector plus two antennas (weights).

How did adding weights (protector and antennas) affect the racket's performance?

Adding weights increased power but reduced maneuverability. It slightly increased the balance from 253 mm to 258 mm and changed the racket's sweet spot and ball exit characteristics.

What is the sweet spot of the MM2 racket like?

The sweet spot provides a medium-soft touch, is very playable, and has a flatter characteristic curve. This makes it easy to use and gives players better control and comfort during play.

Who is the ideal player for the MM2 racket?

The MM2 is designed for amateur or general players seeking high playability, control, and comfort, rather than top-level professional players seeking maximum power.

How is control measured in the MM2 racket?

Control is measured using a formula: Control = Manageability + Sweet Zone ± a constant. The standard MM2 racket scored very high (950/10) in control, emphasizing ease of play and ball handling.

What trade-offs exist when customizing the MM2 racket for power?

Increasing power by adding weights or a protector reduces maneuverability and control, demonstrating a trade-off between power and control based on player preference.

Why does the presenter value laboratory testing for paddle production?

Laboratory testing provides objective data about quality and playability, ensuring consistency between rackets and helping players choose the configuration that best suits their needs.
