What is swing weight, and why should you care?
Squash racket swing weight refers to the distribution of weight within the racket head. Specifically, it measures the resistance a racket offers as you swing it through the air. The swing weight is determined by the overall weight of the racket and the position of the balance point.
A higher swing weight means that the racket will be harder to swing through the air but will offer you more stability and power when connecting with the ball. On the other hand, a lower swing weight means that the racket will be easier to swing and will require less effort to generate racket head speed.
The swing weight of a squash racket can have a significant impact on your game. Players who prefer a faster, more maneuverable racket often choose a lower swing weight, while those who prioritize stability and power may opt for a higher swing weight. It's important to experiment with different swing weights to find the one that best suits your style of play.
