Macron's padel range at CORTA is built around player development — nearly every racket in the line is described by level, from complete beginners to advanced club competitors, rather than just by shape or power rating. Several of the top-tier models — the Hero Pro and Elite II lines — are available exclusively at CORTA in the UK.
This guide groups the Macron range by playing level so you can find the racket built for where you are right now. Browse the full Macron range here.
