The Vidar of Båstad Motion Pro S offers a balanced feel across the court, proving particularly effective from the baseline where its control-oriented design shines. We found it performs reliably at the net, allowing for precise volleys and solid defensive play. While it may not deliver explosive power, its emphasis on ball placement and consistency makes it a strong choice for intermediate players looking to improve their strategic game. In our testing, the Motion Pro S, with its round shape, medium balance, and 345-360g weight, offers good maneuverability. The 3K carbon fiber surface, combined with a soft Black EVA Soft core, contributes to a comfortable feel and responsive touch, earning it a control rating of 7.7/10 in our assessment. We also attributed it 7.4/10 for spin, thanks to its textured surface and hole pattern, which helps grip the ball effectively. Its durability is notable, scoring 8.2/10, suggesting it will withstand regular play. Overall, the Motion Pro S is a reliable all-rounder for the intermediate adult player. It prioritizes control and spin over raw power, making it suitable for those who prefer to dictate points through precision and consistent rallies rather than aggressive finishing shots. We rate its difficulty at 5.4/10, indicating it's quite accessible for its target player group. If you have experience playing with the Vidar of Båstad Motion Pro S, we welcome your thoughts and feedback in the comments.
Manufacturer's Description
The Motion series is developed for players who want to move across their half of the court and feel secure in all positions. The Motion Pro S is the softer racket in the Motion series. The racket is designed for players who prefer to place difficult balls and wear down from the baseline rather than smash everything that comes their way. Simply put, a racket for players who hate to miss. A padel racket that makes it easy to hit difficult balls. One of the points that players request today is a light racket with a lower balance. Therefore, the Motion Pro has this exact configuration. With a weight around 350 grams and a balance around 250 mm, the racket feels easy to swing and agile, allowing you to maintain the same level throughout the match without getting tired in your arm. The Motion Pro has extra many holes compared to standard, a total of 70 holes. The holes are evenly distributed over the surface to achieve the largest possible sweet spot. The holes soften the surface, and leaving parts of the racket without holes will result in different sensations depending on where the ball hits. Many holes also have other advantages; the holes, with their sharp edges, provide good help in spin. Many holes also mean a weight reduction, allowing for extra material to be reinforced in exposed areas. This padel racket has a longer grip, which has proven to be in demand among many players today, partly for those who like a two-handed backhand and partly for those who simply like the feel of a longer handle. However, the length including the frame protection is within the allowed range for competition. Now you can easily change the wrist strap without having to remove the knob. Here you can easily choose your own design or switch between Vidar's different straps. This way, you'll never have to play with a broken or worn strap. In addition to the extra spin you can get via the hole formation, this padel racket comes with texture on the surface. The lines that go diagonally across the racket surface, together with the holes, provide all the spin you could wish for. The Motion Pro comes with a 3K surface and a softer core with some trampoline effect.
