Which racket does Chingotto use

Sources disagree on the exact model. According to Padel Ibérico he plays matches with the Bullpadel Neuron 02 Edge 2026, a stiff diamond with a high balance; according to Chingoland with the Bullpadel Neuron 02 2026, a hybrid with a medium balance. Both are rackets from his signature line. Reviews of the Edge say it is precise, stable and has a crisp feel; they disagree on power: for Zona de Padel it is the more powerful of the two Neurons, for Padelful and PadelSpeed it is a control racket that only gives power to players with a clean stroke. For Padel Market the Neuron 02 is the most balanced, with more ball output when the pace rises. The 2027 versions are already out: Bullpadel Neuron 02 Edge 2027 and Bullpadel Neuron 02 2027.

Is Chingotto's racket right for you?

• The Neuron 02 Edge if you are an advanced player looking for precision and stability who doesn't need free power.
• The Neuron 02 if you want a more balanced racket, with a hybrid shape and a little more help with ball output.
• None of his tournament rackets if you are a beginner or have elbow problems: look at rackets for beginners or those for tennis elbow.
