Our Verdict
The Kombat Osorno 2025 is a well-rounded racket that punches above its price point in the all-important ball output department — a 10/10 rating from the manufacturer isn't something to dismiss, and the dual-density EVA core backs it up with lively, consistent response. The 3D carbon surface adds genuine spin capability, which makes the racket useful across a wide variety of situations from the back court to the net. At 365g with a medium balance, it's accessible enough for developing players yet provides sufficient control and power for club intermediates who want one racket to cover everything. If you're building your game and want comfort, consistency, and pace without choosing between them, the Osorno makes a compelling case for itself.
Pros
- Ball output feels effortless here — the dual-density EVA core generates lively rebound without demanding a full swing, which translates to pace and depth even when you're under pressure at the back of the court.
- The 3D carbon surface with its rough matte texture grips the ball noticeably at contact, giving you genuine effect on angled shots and when working the ball off the glass.
- At a midpoint of 365g with a medium balance, the racket sits comfortably in the hand during long sessions and transitions quickly between defensive and attacking positions without feeling sluggish.
Cons
- Aggressive players who rely on a high balance point to generate smash power from the net will find the medium balance limits the leverage they need to finish points decisively overhead.
In Depth
The Face
3D Carbon
Carbon face — stiff construction with direct power transfer. Crisp feel on contact that rewards clean striking technique with responsive ball speed.
The Core
Dual-density EVA
Foam core — the softest core material available. Excellent vibration absorption and a large effective sweet spot, making it the most forgiving option on off-centre hits.
Shape & Balance
Teardrop · Medium Balance
The most versatile combination available — sweet spot large enough to handle pressure situations, balance neutral enough to transition between defence and attack without fighting the racket.
Who Buys This
Intermediate · Balanced players
Club players who move between defensive and attacking play during a match. Versatile enough to perform in both situations without committing to a pure control or pure power racket.
