Le  Miami P1  It not only marks a change of scenery with its move indoors. It also symbolizes a major evolution in professional padel:  the arrival of a new surface , the  PGR by Bela , which is shaking up the standards previously dominated by the famous Mondo.

A small revolution in a sport where every detail counts.

 An alternative to Mondo that changes the rules 

For several seasons, the  Mondo Supercourt  has established itself as the benchmark on the circuit. But in Miami, for the first time in a P1 category tournament, it is a different carpet that is being showcased.

Developed by  Realturf  in collaboration with  Padel Galis  et  Fernando Belasteguín PGR by Bela is part of a new approach:
 to offer a high-performance surface for professionals, but also suitable for amateur play. 

Unlike Mondo, which is often considered very specific and demanding, PGR aims for a  more accessible balance  enter :

  • game speed
  • comfort of movement
  • joint safety

 A concrete technical innovation: fewer joints, greater stability 

One of the major strengths of this new carpet lies in its design.

  •  a single joint in the center of the field instead of two on the sides
  • so  fewer sensitive areas 
  • and especially  less risk of wear and tear or defects over time 

A technical detail, but one that has a direct impact on the  play quality and track durability .

 A surface designed for the modern player 

The PGR project was born from a simple observation: padel is evolving, and its surfaces must follow.

With the direct involvement of  Fernando Belasteguín Every detail has been carefully considered to meet the demands of the highest level:

  • The best  slip 
  • smoother movement
  •  optimized ball speed 
  • reduction of physical constraints

The objective is clear:
 a better game, less traumatic for the body 

As Bela himself points out, the desired sensation is immediate:
un  comfort from the very first steps , with a natural and controlled glide.

 Scientific validation and global approach 

The PGR is not based solely on sensations. It was tested in collaboration with the Institute of Biomechanics of Valencia (IBV) .

These tests allowed us to analyze:

  • Player movements in real-world conditions
  • the absorption of impacts
  • friction and stability
  • the behavior of the ball

Result: one validated surface at a time  objectively (mechanical tests)  et  subjectively (player feedback) .

 A product designed for the development of padel 

Another key point: the PGR is part of a global vision of the market.

Today, padel continues to develop its structure. Clubs are looking for:

  • surfaces  sustainable 
  • reliable over time
  • and offering a  premium experience 

The PGR responds to this request with:

  • a better  sand retention 
  • a more homogeneous surface
  • and an optimized installation system ( Padel Easy reducing costs and installation time

 Miami, showcase of a new era 

The choice of this carpet on the  Miami P1  is not trivial.

This is a strong signal:
the professional circuit is opening up to new technologies
and the standardization of surfaces is evolving

With tournaments like Miami, but also Cancun, Malaga or Valencia, the PGR by Bela is gradually establishing itself as a  a credible and modern alternative .

 A fundamental trend in padel 

Beyond the product, this evolution reflects a broader transformation.

Padel is entering a phase of maturity where:

  • Performance no longer depends solely on the players
  • but also the game environment

And in this equation,  Carpeting becomes a strategic element .

 A carpet that is already winning over the market 

The initial feedback is very positive.
Clubs and players alike appreciate:

  • the comforts
  • the fluidity of the game
  • and the overall feeling on the track

In a market where many solutions of varying quality are emerging, the PGR stands out as a product  reliable, tested and validated .
