At 27 inches long and with 500 square centimeters of surface area, you can ensure an easy clean connection with the squash ball, while the strings are easily adjustable to find your desired tautness to guarantee spectacular performance against friends, colleagues, or even in competition.

Combining graphite composition with a basaltex construction, the Tecnifibre Carboflex 130 is well worth the plus $100 you’ll need to splash out to add it to your squash gear arsenal. It’s factory strung to the highest quality, while the secure grip ensures excellent, easy handling even deep into the game.

The head size measures at a sufficient 500 centimeters squared, and the balance rating is 365 mm. The frame is sturdy and can take quite the battering, while the lightweight design complements the heavy head to ensure fantastic control and performance on the court.

One thing we love most about reviewing sports gear is how cool the names sound sometimes and the Harrow Vapor is a fantastic example of this with the quality to back it up. It’s evenly balanced and powerful but also ensures excellent control and is lightweight enough that you won’t feel pain around your shoulder too quickly.

This lightweight feel is made possible with its graphite construction, and although it’s not as sturdy as others – try not to strike against the wall too much – you’ll still get a fair amount of power with every shot, even if you don’t consider yourself that strong, anyway.

Less cool-sounding but no less effective, the Harrow 2016 M-140 harks back to a more classic style and is perfect for those who want to look like they’ve been playing squash even longer than they’ve been alive.

Seriously, though, it’s a stylish racquet that can back it up with performance.

This also makes it fantastic for big hitters, allowing for control and quality with every strike.

The Harrow Bancroft delivers even balance combined with high quality construction to ensure excellent performance on the court. Like the M-140, it’s a great option for doubles competition, but will also serve (ha) you well when practicing or playing solo.

The forgiving head shape ensures easy striking with a surface area perfect for those who always struggle with getting the cleanest hits around and while you may have some concerns about maneuverability, you won’t find any issues, and it’s actually one of the more accommodating racquets we’ve selected.

The Black Knight Ion Cannon PowerSurge is a high performing and high quality option for those seeking to maximize their hits with power almost unseen in the world of squash, or at least on the court you play on. It’s well-balanced and boasts a 500 square centimeter surface area to allow for clean, reliable strikes even when you’re running on autopilot and the large sweet spot is something all players look for.

At just 135 grams, you’ll get a dynamic weight that toes the line perfectly between easy handling while also guaranteeing great control to go along with the aforementioned power that’s sure to add an extra element to your game.

Conversely, the HEAD Extreme is closer to the other side of the proficiency spectrum and is an excellent choice for those just starting or for anyone with a little experience who needs an additional racquet for practice or casual games.

This option provides stability, durability, and performance at an excellent and highly reasonable price while still boasting some of the high quality materials you’d typically expect to find with more expensive options. The Innegra hybrid composite is tough but also lightweight, while the heavy head provides great balance and control when on the court.

Professionals (or those who believe they’re professionals) looking for the best of the best squash racquets around should look no further than the HEAD Graphene Touch Radical Slimbody. This option provides the perfect balance of power and precision thanks to corrugated technology, graphene construction, and a fantastic feel with every strike.

The head is shock absorbing to ensure greater control and an unparalleled touch that’s well worth spending the almost-$200 for add it to your collection. The grip is not as large as our previous pick, but it’s still enough to deliver comfortable and secure handling when the game goes right down to the wire.

Last, our final pick in our search for the best squash racquet is also our selection for the best value racquet on the market. The Black Knight Bandit 3 is an excellent choice for the rebels of the court and despite its cheaper price and simple design, will still have opponents shivering in despair once you step onto the court.
