Buy the Indiga CTR if you're a complete beginner, otherwise the Head Extreme EVO Woman gives you a slightly livelier feel.
Two beginner-friendly frames at virtually identical money. The Indiga CTR (360-375g, round, low balance, soft EVA, fibreglass) is a textbook control-first beginner racket. The Extreme EVO Woman at £65 sits in the same bracket but with Head's typical slightly stiffer feel.
A few thoughts:
If you're brand new to padel, the Indiga's round head and soft EVA core is the safer choice. Your sweet spot is bigger, mishits are punished less and you'll build technique without fighting the racket. The Head suits someone who's played a bit and wants more pop. Either way, don't overthink your first racket. You'll change it within 18 months regardless.
