Stéphane Penso take in hand the Pascal Box de Bullpadel. An invention that preserves the environment while extending the lifespan of your bullets padel. Let's comb through this tube.

Pascal Box is an engineering company from Madrid which patented a pressurized tube in consumer version for 3 balls which, match after match, regulates and restores the pressure of the balls in this famous magazine. Bullpadel was not mistaken and decided to join forces with the Spanish brand in order to communicate, disseminate and distribute this clever and original system from all points of view.

Fernando Luis, general manager and inventor of Pascal Box, started from the observation that in the clubs of padel, more than half of the players played only one session with the balls and took up new ones the next game.

Pascal Box currency: it's not magic, it's science.

The designation "Pascal" is not trivial. In addition to having an obvious impact on the environment, this term was knowingly used by the company. Since the adoption of the pascal in the International System of Units (SI) as a unit of pressure, meteorologists use a multiple of this unit, the hectopascal (hPa), which has the advantage of corresponding exactly to the millibar used previously. : 1 hPa = 1 mbar.

Before talking about the machine itself, let's recall a few facts.

Why do bullets padel are they losing pressure?

It is important to understand that if you maintain the correct pressure, you will have better rebound and speed of play. However, just taking the balls out of their boxes already means that they are starting to lose their pressure. origin. There are other factors that affect the pressure, which should also be taken into account. We find :

Altitude

It is not the same to play in an area close to the sea as it is in higher areas.

Frequency of use

For example, there are players who train once a week and others who play almost every day.

The intensity of the practice

If you're the type to put a lot of intensity, with big smashes, and devastating effects in your games, you risk damaging your balls more than if you play more quietly.

As there are therefore several factors that influence the pressure loss, the easiest way is to bring this famous tube to avoid any unpleasant surprises.

What are the advantages of using Pascal Box 3B?

  • The risk of injury is reduced because you play each time with “new” balls that always have the correct pressure.
  • The costs for the consumer decrease because the balls have an increased lifespan (we play more).
  • More respectful of the environment because the climate footprint is reduced (we throw away less).

So far, Pascal Box users have saved the CO2 equivalent of a planted forest as large as 790 courts of padel (1 / 02 / 2021).

HOW TO USE

  • Place the balls in Pascal Box 3B and close the lid. A seal ensures the seal so that the pressure is maintained over time.
  • Pump air through the valve until the pressure reaches the green mark.
  • The pressure in Pascal Box is maintained until the next training session or game.
  • Press the valve to unload the box. When the pressure is gone, you can open the lid and remove the balls.

Bullets padel (and tennis) lose pressure when not in use, as well as whenever the ball bounces or is hit by a stroke. After the first hour of use, the balls lose up to 25% of pressure!

In short

Pascal Box is a system capable of recovering regulatory pressure time and time again, increasing the life cycle of more than 30 matches for your balls.

Its high precision pressure gauge allows you to adjust the pressure according to the style of play and the external conditions (temperature, humidity, altitude).

The “all-in-one” system consists of a high-resistance container and cover, a universal inflation valve and an easily transportable safety valve.

Always enjoy the best gaming experience, avoid injuries, save money, shop smart, and contribute to environmental sustainability.

More in detail

The lid gasket ensures the tightness of the Pascal Box so that the pressure is maintained over time. Time, which otherwise affects the bouncing ability of the ball from day one out of its original packaging, is no longer a problem!

The manometer indicates the pressure inside the Pascal Box. You can adjust the pressure in the tube to the desired value for your sport!

To counter the overpressure in the Pascal Box, there is a safety valve which guarantees maximum protection.

How to maintain new balls?

  • Put the balls in the Pascal Box and close the lid tightly.

  • Pump air into the Pascal Box through the valve until the pressure reaches the green mark for the padel and tennis respectively.

  • Keep the pressure on the Pascal Box until the next match.

  • Open the Pascal Box by pressing the valve. When the pressure is gone, open the lid. The balls will now bounce like “new”.

How to collect old balls?

The pressure recovery process for “old” balls is different from that for new balls. Here, the pressure must be gradually increased over several days, in order to avoid irreversible degradation of the ball.

  • Pump air until the pointer reaches 3/4 of the orange area. Wait 72 hours before the next step.

  • Pump more air until the pointer reaches the end of the orange area and the start of the green area. Wait another 72 hours before the next step.

  • Increase the pressure to the level specified for the sport (Padel, Tennis) and wait 72 hours again.

En conclusion

PASCAL BOX is a fabulous system capable of recovering regulatory pressure time and time again, achieving multi-match lifespan for your balls.

Thanks to its technologies, you will be able to:

1 / Avoid injuries. A good bounce of the ball avoids many injuries.

2 / Save money. Maximize the life of the bullet.

3 / Be ecological. Less rubber and less pollution. Contribute to environmental sustainability.

For 50 €, designed et made in Spain, this "gadget" is a must for:

  • Those who want to play in the best possible conditions without sacrificing a big ball budget.
  • Those who want to avoid injuries because bullets under pressurized generate a multiplied effort (mobility and additional power).
  • Those who have an ecological fiber, not because it's fashion, but because it's innate.

At this price, the investment is very wise and it will pay off completely after a few games. If you play with the same partners, buy smart, nothing prevents you from cutting the pear in 4 (12 € each).

Special thanks French Padel Shop for allowing me to test this little gem. No doubt I will make good use of it!
Take advantage while there is stock, as the product seems to be getting close to breaking out on all platforms.
