Enebe Response 24K Silver 2026

The Enebe Response 24K Silver 2026 arrives as a very complete teardrop racket for advanced players who want a serious mix of power, control, and a large sweet spot without moving to an extreme hard feel. It stands out especially in fast exchanges and in offensive transitions.


Technical Analysis

Shape and Balance

The teardrop shape gives this racket a clearly offensive profile, but without sacrificing control as much as a pure diamond would. The balance feels slightly toward the head, which helps add weight to the ball on volleys, smashes, and aggressive bandejas.

On defense, the racket does not feel sluggish, but you do notice that it favors players who like to attack as soon as possible. The balance is stable through the swing and transmits a solid strike, with little twisting on off‑center hits.

Construction and Materials

  • Frame: Carbon fiber
  • Faces: 24K carbon
  • Core: Medium EVA

The carbon fiber frame gives the racket a very solid structure, with good durability and a firm feeling in blocks and high‑speed impacts.

The 24K carbon faces provide a crisp ball exit and a clean, sharp response. The surface feels reactive, with enough rigidity to transfer energy well, but without becoming a rock. Players who like to hit through the ball will appreciate how the face reacts when you accelerate.

The medium EVA core is key here. It tempers the stiffness of the carbon, giving a more forgiving touch in defense and on medium‑speed shots. The ball sinks just enough into the core to provide feedback and control, but comes out with liveliness as soon as you increase your swing speed.

Feel and Touch

The general feel is medium, but leaning slightly to firm because of the 24K carbon. The impact sensation is clean and defined, with a noticeable sound and very clear feedback on where you’re contacting the ball.

There is no trampoline effect at low speed, which helps in control shots. As you accelerate, the racket starts to shine: the response becomes more explosive, and the ball comes out with very good speed.

Players used to ultra‑soft foams may initially feel it a bit more demanding. However, after a few games the comfort level is quite good, especially for a carbon‑on‑carbon construction.

Grip

The grip length feels slightly extended, which helps mainly on two‑handed backhands and when you want more leverage in the smash. The handle thickness is standard and comfortable, with no strange edges or pressure points.

With an overgrip, it offers a secure hold, and the racket does not move in the hand during aggressive volleys or viboras. Over long matches, hand fatigue is low, as the handle transmits vibration in a controlled way.

Comfort

For a racket built with full carbon and 24K faces, comfort is surprisingly acceptable. The medium EVA core absorbs part of the impact, especially on defensive lobs and controlled volleys.

On mishits, you do feel some stiffness, but not in a harsh or painful way. Players with a sensitive elbow should still combine it with a good technique and relaxed swing, but it is not one of those super rigid models that punish every mistake.


Sensations en el Juego

Fondo de pista

From the back of the court, the Enebe Response 24K Silver 2026 demands a bit of intention in every shot. The medium touch and slightly head‑biased balance mean that passive defense is not its strong suit. If you just put the racket in front of the ball, it does not give free power.

The sweet spot is pleasantly wide for a teardrop. Even when you hit a bit off‑center, the racket maintains a decent level of control and depth. That helps a lot on defensive lobs under pressure and on chiquitas to the rival’s feet.

At low speed, control is high. The ball does not fly away and allows you to play precise lobs, cross‑court lifts, and resets with confidence. As soon as you swing with more intensity, the racket responds much better: the ball leaves with good speed, and the trajectory is very predictable.

For players who like to defend with aggressive counterattacks instead of just blocking, this racket fits very well. It allows you to change from defense to attack quickly, especially with flat drives and powerful cross‑court forehands.

Juego aéreo desde el fondo

On overhead shots from the back, such as bandejas launched from deep positions, the racket asks you to complete the swing and use your body well. If the technique is lazy or the preparation is short, the ball will stay a bit shorter than desired.

But if you prepare correctly and hit through the ball, you get a solid depth and a penetrating trajectory. The feel is especially good on bandejas with slice and on aggressive víboras, where the 24K carbon gives a sharp exit and a heavy ball.

En la red

At the net, the Enebe Response 24K Silver 2026 shows one of its best faces. The head‑oriented balance and 24K carbon make it easy to accelerate the ball with compact, quick movements.

On volleys, the control–power balance is very well achieved. Short, blocked volleys land deep with little effort, and when you look to close the point with a strong forehand volley, the racket reacts with a very direct and powerful response.

The sweet spot helps a lot here. Even if you contact slightly outside the center in rushed exchanges, you still get a playable ball. That is a big advantage in fast duels at the net, where you do not always find the perfect contact point.

Bandejas y víboras

In bandejas, the racket allows several heights and trajectories. You can play higher, more defensive shots with margin, or choose lower, more aggressive bandejas with slice, looking for the side glass.

On víboras, the racket behaves particularly well. The combination of 24K carbon and medium foam generates a ball with speed and spin, ideal for forcing awkward returns or direct errors. The feel of the impact is firm and very clear, which helps fine‑tune the contact angle.

En el remate

In the smash, the Response 24K Silver 2026 stands out. You do not need an elite technique to bring out the power, although, of course, good mechanics always help. The slightly longer handle gives an extra lever effect, especially noticeable in flat smashes and those looking to bring the ball back to your own side.

For flat smashes, the racket rewards an aggressive, forward‑going swing. The ball leaves very heavy and with good direction. In kick smashes, the 24K face helps add spin, but this racket favors more the flat, powerful finisher than the extreme topspin specialist.

From mid‑court, taking the ball high, you can take it out by 3 and by 4 with a good percentage, as long as you time the jump and the arm work correctly. From deeper positions, it still has punch, but you do need clear commitment to the stroke.


Conclusion

The Enebe Response 24K Silver 2026 is a very solid option for attacking and all‑court players who want:

  • A teardrop racket with clear offensive character.
  • 24K carbon faces with a defined, powerful impact.
  • A medium feel that balances comfort and aggressiveness.
  • A large sweet spot for its segment, helpful in fast exchanges.

Its strongest areas are the net game, overheads, and smashes, where it delivers speed and a heavy ball with relative ease. In defense, it is controllable and stable, but it asks for active strokes rather than passive blocks.

As a critical note, players who prefer ultra‑soft, very forgiving rackets might feel this model a bit firmer than ideal. Also, those who rely heavily on very slow, high control strokes and constant lobs, with little acceleration, may not be extracting its full potential.

For advanced intermediates and advanced players who like to attack early, hit clean, and enjoy a crisp carbon feel with a controlled medium touch, the Enebe Response 24K Silver 2026 offers a very compelling, well‑balanced package.
