Technical concepts

TWIN CARBONE TUBE: Twin-tube carbon frame. Maximizes rigidity and reduces torsion for maximum power. Increases strength and stability.
EVOLUTIVE HOLE SIZE: Combination and distribution of different-sized holes on the surface of the racket to increase the sweet spot (ideal point for hitting the ball).
ROUGH SURFACE: Rough surface to promote spin on the ball.
HIGH MODULUS CARBON: High-density carbon reinforcements improve the racket's resistance.

Shock Block System

The Shock Block System is a vibration-reduction system.
It's a technology developed by Decathlon's Research and Development Center. Team engineers Kuikma have redesigned the concept to adapt it to a Padel racket.
An elastomer insert inside the racket handle reduces vibrations for greater comfort when striking.

Testea Padel ®

Laboratory tests carried out with TESTEA PADEL (a laboratory specializing in paddle racket technology) have shown that the "Shock Block System" reduces vibrations by up to 38%.

Air Foam Frame

The racquet has a "double tube" frame to optimize rigidity and power. Our design teams have inserted EVA foam inside the two tubes at the racket head.
This reinforces the frame and increases strength, which is our priority for all Kuikma products.

A top-of-the-range racket at this price - how is that possible?

At Kuikma, we don't want to burden padel players with an additional cost that does nothing for their game.

Being designers and distributors means we can limit the number of intermediaries involved in the manufacture and distribution of our rackets.

We also keep our communication costs (campaigns and sponsorship) to a minimum. Product trials and player recommendations will be our best means of communication.

TESTS

Our design center is based in Spain, with design and engineering skills. Its role is to identify user needs and pass them on to our design center in France.
Prototypes are tested on padel courts with users corresponding to their needs. Their resistance is then tested in our design center's laboratory.
This enables us to validate our products with a commitment to quality.

Approved by

Our Kuikma PR CARBON rackets have been validated by Horacio Alvarez Clementi. Thanks to his experience (ex-world number 1 and international coach), Horacio has given us the benefit of his high standards by carrying out several product tests. This enabled us to make the final adjustments to offer a complete range of high-level technical rackets.
