I've had a couple of Ektelons, and really liked them both. That's probably a pretty good racquet, lightweight. I use a Viper right now, which is basically like that one you linked.

I highly recommend glasses. I've taken a ball in the face before. Sure, it doesn't happen often. Usually it's in the back. But sometimes those balls can take funny spins off a wall and with the close quarters and fast moving ball, you might not have time to react.

I'd rather get hit in the back of the head than in the low of the back. That stings like crazy.

Why do you need glasses to play raquetball?

Little blue ball moving very quickly, has an odd penchant for dealing out black eyes.

Hmm...well I play tennis and don't need glasses for that. I would think that you would be able to avoid having the ball hit you in the eye...just block it with the raquet or hand or arm or whatever.

Are you dumb?
