Introducing the Essential range, and our review of our large training cones.
Thanks to our observations in the field and numerous discussions with coaches, we have studied the different needs for setting up exercises: delimiting, avoiding... In response, we've designed the Essential range: smart, accessible products that fulfil a major function (marking out, targeting...), for fun, effective training in all age categories. Large cones let you mark out the terrain. Follow the saga!
Our team of soccer designers tells you all about the Essential range
"For this new, larger stud, we wanted to continue the saga of the Essential range. So we gave it the emblematic arrow shape, thanks in particular to the textural interplay between the matte and gloss of the plastic component. The large studs are used to represent an obstacle or to mark out the playing area: the arrow makes it immediately clear which side to avoid, for example. We wanted sturdy studs with an obvious visual cue."
Design and size for more intuitive workouts
Depending on the age category, the studs can be used to mark out, delimit or avoid. David, Kispta's test manager and coach, explains:
"For children, the large studs are used to mark out the pitch: they provide the youngest players with more important visual cues. They can also be used to make two small goals or a gate in the game. For adults, large studs serve as obstacles: their size makes them harder to avoid, so you have to apply yourself."
Field-tested reliability and durability
A unique visual identity and an intuitive design, it's done! But above all, we wanted these studs to serve your training sessions for as long as possible. To make sure of this, we tested our products in the field, at the Kipstadium in Tourcoing and in the U9, U10 and U11 categories in Lens. These demanding tests under real-life conditions confirmed that the shape of these studs is as reliable and resistant as it is unique!
Stable pads on grass and synthetic surfaces.
To guarantee the stability of the studs on natural or synthetic turf pitches, our design team has come up with a trick: we've integrated small notches into the base of the stud, creating a comb effect. Certain blades of grass will get caught inside them and cause the ground to grip in a lateral movement. Simple and effective!
