FORTY YEARS. A NEW COURT.
40 years of sports engineering in your hand.
Our roots are in hurling, where players feel a difference in balance instantly. Three generations on, we bring that scrutiny to padel: benchmark against the world’s best, measure coefficient of restitution, balance and vibration, then tune carbon and EVA until the numbers hold up.
- Honest performance: power or control you can measure on court.
- Premium carbon and EVA chosen for behaviour, not cost.
- Designed with players, from club level to elite.
FROM THE COURT
What players are saying.
The rackets had a very comfortable feeling when hitting the ball, and the core felt responsive while maintaining control. Both rackets were aggressive enough in terms of balance, but the difference between the SAOR racket, with its medium-high balance, and the FÍOR racket, with its high balance, was clear. I was also happy to see that both felt like well-tested, finished products designed for high-intermediate and advanced players.
As an intermediate player, I really enjoyed playing with the SAOR. I particularly liked its comfortable feel and the balance between power and control. It felt easy to manoeuvre during rallies, while still giving me enough power when attacking and playing overhead shots. I also found it very responsive when hitting the ball, which gave me confidence to play more aggressively. Overall, I really enjoyed testing it and will definitely be using it in my next matches.
