Frescobol
This is a very good question!
The Carioca Set is our lighter option. It allows players to play with more control and with less power. This would be the most suitable option if you intend to play with kids or women without other racket sport experience.
Lets put it this way, the Carioca Set is the entry level for Frescobol.
The Amsterdam Set is heavier and it allows players to play with a more power. If you have experience with other racket sports such as Tenis, Padel, etc. This would be the perfect set for you.
Here is a a more detailed explanation of differences:
Carioca Set: basswood, black walnut and Red Cherry stripes, weight per racket ca. 290g
Amsterdam Set: basswood and black walnut stripes, weight per racket ca. 400g
We believe that Frescobol is suitable for kids 9 and older.
Younger kids might struggle controlling the rackets since the are between 300 and 400g.
There is no age limit to play but we have not seen many 70+ playing Frescobol.
This is a very valid question and we get this all the time.
Our Frescobol sets are handcrafted using only high quality woods.
The crafting process is complex and the materials very expensive.
When comparing to other beach sets mainly made of plastic at a large scale (and in many cases at a very poor quality) we are a completely different type of product.
The game experience and the durability of our sets are what sets us apart.
We use the following woods on our sets:
Amsterdam Set: basswood with black walnut stripes
Carioca Set: basswood with black walnut and red cherry stripes
