PadelRackets
Volt Padel is a Portuguese padel brand founded in 2016, with the mission of creating sports equipment that uniquely balances quality and design. The brand aims to develop rackets that meet the needs of players at all levels, offering models that maximize performance in every shot.
Among its standout projects are two rackets for aggressive, experienced players. The V950 features a diamond shape and high balance to maximize power, with a smaller sweet spot for precision. The V1000, created in collaboration with professional WPT player Agustín Gómez Silingo, “the Beast,” is tailored to his attacking style and hand size, reflecting his personality and boosting Volt Padel’s presence in the professional circuit.
V950Racket – As this racket is designed for explosive play, it is crucial to consider the high speeds during hitting. The core of the racket was inspired by the aerodynamic shaped of racing cars. Its wide air intake ensures lower resistance during play, while the central pillar is responsible for distributing and minimizing vibrations in the handle as much as possible.
V1000Racket – We designed a mold with a significantly longer handle than usual, a notable innovation compared to others seen on the circuit so far. The result is a racket with exceptional balance to enhance Agustín’s attacking play, while also serving as a unique differentiating element for Volt.
Molds Development – For both models, the mold was designed with a distinctive “V”-shaped core, symbolizing the essence of the brand, with a wide opening towards the sides of the racket. The hole pattern follows an organic distribution across the impact area, enhancing performance and control. Both rackets showcase Volt Padel’s commitment to innovation, quality, and design, combining performance and aesthetics for players at all levels.
Project Scope – The V950, initially designed as a versatile mold for a wide range of players, was ultimately adopted as the official racket of World Padel Tour professional Ana Catarina Nogueira, while the V1000, created for Agustín Gómez Silingo, made a groundbreaking impact on the circuit—so much so that its legality was questioned—cementing its status as a true Game Changer.
