Optimal playing conditions for the Adidas Speed RX ball
Atmospheric pressure and climate influence the behavior of your padel ball. So, the lower the altitude, the slower the ball will be and, on the contrary, the higher the altitude, the faster the ball will be.
For this reason, it is advisable to use slower or control balls at higher altitudes and speed balls in sea-level areas.
In this case, theAdidas Speed Rx is suitable for cold, damp areas at low altitude.

International Padel Federation-approved balls
In official competition, it's essential that the balls you use are homologated. For this reason, Adidas offers the Speed Rx model, which has been approved by the International Padel Federation, indicating that these balls comply with the official rules of the game.
How can you preserve your padel ball?
Once you've finished playing, you should store your balls in the ball collection tube to protect them from external agents, which you can carry in your bag.
Temperature variations can affect ball durability, influencing pressure. For example, rain will cause the outside of the ball to deteriorate more quickly, causing the hairs to disappear.
