When for his Cupra Padel Point Tour organized at the Pyramids club, we had the opportunity to discuss with Eric Rosseeuw, the commercial manager of Babolat for the Île-de-France sector. The perfect opportunity to take stock of the new features and developments in the padel for the year 2023.

The new range of snowshoes Babolat for women :

"Babolat has developed a new range of snowshoes, specially designed for women. These snowshoes have innovative and specific characteristics:

  • “Microperf” technology: a technology patented by Babolat which consists of micro-perforating the surface of the racket on the most rigid areas of the screen.
  • The profile of these racquets is thinner than that of traditional models, with 36mm instead of 38mm.

These innovations make it possible to enlarge the centering zone (the famous “sweet spot”) while reducing the weight of the racquet.

The range consists of two types of models: Dyna and Stima.

1/ Dyna racquets, incorporating "Carbon Flex" technology (weaving of carbon fibers and glass fibers), offer a more flexible surface for good hitting power.

  • The Dyna Energy is the lightest with a weight of 330g and a balance of 265mm.
  • The Dyna Spirit weighs 335g with a balance of 270mm.

2/ Stima racquets are more flexible and are designed to deliver effortless power while maintaining plenty of comfort and forgiveness.

  • The Stima Energy is also very light (330g) with a balance of 265mm.
  • The Stima Spirit weighs 335g with a balance of 270mm.”

Zoom on the Jet Premura 2 Shoe:

“Launched at the beginning of 2023, the famous Jet Premura 2 is used by Juan Lebron.

Weighing only 307 grams for a size 43, this ultra-light shoe benefits, like all the other models Babolat, a Michelin sole. The rubber's design, profile and formula have been carefully engineered to provide incredible flexibility, solid grip and great fluidity of movement.

The Matryx Evo technology on the upper of the shoe allows both an ultra-lightweight, very breathable, and comfortable fabric while offering excellent foot support.

In conclusion, these 2023 novelties emphasize technological innovation to improve comfort and performance.”
