Stiga 18K LW 2 Cybershape Amanda Edition Padel Racket
STIGA Cybershape 18K LW 2 is an improved, lighter version of the popular 18K Cybershape model, designed for players who want to maintain high control and feel of the ball, while playing more comfortably and dynamically. Thanks to its lower weight, the racket is easier to maneuver and puts less strain on the wrist and elbow.
Amanda Girdo created her first signature racket with female players in mind, who are looking for a light, dynamic, and at the same time very controlled game. The 18K LW Cybershape Amanda Girdo Edition model is based on the proven 18K LW Cybershape construction, but has been refined according to Amanda's vision — with additional corner reinforcements that increase comfort and durability during intense rallies.
From the beginning, the goal was to create a racket that would be quick to react, easy to handle, and at the same time provide maximum precision of strokes. Its lighter weight makes the racket great for defense, quick transitions to the net, and dynamic play. At the same time, it maintains stability and control even with more powerful shots.
The result is a versatile racket that gives great confidence on the court and will suit a wide range of female players – both those developing their playing style and more advanced players who value comfort and precision.
The 18K LW 2 Cybershape model offers a softer and more controlled ball strike, while maintaining very good game dynamics. Medium balance ensures stability and precision in every rally, making the racket suitable for both offensive and technical defensive play.
The racket surface is made of reinforced 18K carbon fiber layers, and the applied silver treatment strengthens the weave structure, providing excellent responsiveness, precision, and a very good feel for the ball.
The unique Cybershape design stands out from traditional padel rackets. The construction reduces air resistance by as much as 12%, which translates into a faster swing and more effective energy transfer to the ball. This results in more powerful shots and a more dynamic game.
The advantages of Cybershape don't stop at a larger sweet spot; this racket allows for game development. Thanks to the racket's edge construction, you can bring the racket much closer to the ground and glass. The racket's lines align with the court, giving this racket a distinct advantage over a round racket when you are working on improving your game.
The racket also offers approximately 20% larger sweet spot than classic padel rackets, which significantly increases tolerance for off-center hits. Crystal Grip technology improves spin generation, while an extended handle provides greater reach and allows for comfortable two-handed play.
The durable 360 Carbon Frame, made from 100% carbon fiber, guarantees durability and stability during strong opponent shots. The textured Crystal Grip surface increases ball spin and improves control over every shot.
The racket is also equipped with an extended grip, which provides a more secure hold and allows for comfortable two-handed play. An additional advantage is the replaceable wrist strap, increasing comfort and safety during play.
STIGA Cybershape 18K LW 2 is the ideal light padel racket for players seeking a combination of control, comfort, and modern Cybershape technology – suitable for both experienced players and ambitious younger players.
The racket comes with a bag (cover) and a dedicated box.
