Kibo 4.0 Drop Shot

Padel· Kibo

GoodUpdated on 10/05/2026

Drop Shot Kibo 4.0, from the Essential line, one of the favorite rackets of those who are starting out in padel. The round shape centers the weight and gives more ball control, with fewer unforced errors and an extremely wide sweet spot. The faces are flexible fiberglass, which forgives and gives a wide margin of error, and the quite rigid EVA Pro foam adds a touch of rigidity and offensive potential. It weighs 350-370 g and is 38 mm thick. Aggressive look in blue and orange.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%70
Approval from players35%65

The RR Score is not yet a precise figure. It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.

Recommended for beginners only: the RR Score for this category goes up to 75. It may be great for what it is designed for, but it does not rank among the best in the sport.
