Like every season at this time, the prestigious firm once again presented the news they are preparing for next season. On this occasion, the main protagonist was the new series of Alpha blades, which will represent an important step forward in terms of performance and sensations.
Padel World Press .- On the morning of 15 in December, at the stand with which they are present in the Commercial Village of Estrella Damm Masters Finals, several of the most responsible for the brand, as well as a broad representation of the players who are part of their professional team , were in charge of making known to the media the main news and developments developed by HEAD for 2017.
In an event hosted by Ricky Fernández Brigolle, HEAD's Category Manager Racquet Sports highlighted the importance they place on the internationalization of the paddle and, in that sense, revealed that the 21% of its sales volume already responds to other countries that are not Spain, among which are such destinations curious as Japan, Croatia or Iran.
At the same time, as they had indicated, the names of the winners of the contest 'Next Padel Rebel' were also announced, with which they awarded sports sponsorship for a year to two promising young people who showed their potential and passion for this wonderful sport in some videos sent to the brand.
Right afterwards, it was time to learn about the new technologies that will be applied to the Alpha Series models and, among them, the most outstanding was Graphene Touch, a new evolution of the use of graphene in padel rackets ...
And what exactly is Graphene Touch? As Ricky Fernández Brigolle explained, it is a unique combination that reduces vibrations and increases comfort, so that the different blows will have another sound and the impact will be perceived more comfortable ... And all this, without losing an iota of power or control.
The three blades that are part of the Alpha line will be:
Alpha Pro: Arma de Sanyo Gutiérrez, striking for its comfort and its unparalleled touch. From HEAD they said that their users will feel like they have a glove in their hand. Its main characteristics: touch, precision and comfort at the forefront.
Alpha Motion: Pure movement. What else could be said about the Eli Amatrian shovel? La Rioja, considered one of the most elegant players in the Women's Circuit said that this blade stands out for its extreme handling and versatility.
Alpha Elite: It is the softest version of the new Alpha series. Constructed with Graphene Touch in the frame and fiberglass in the face, it has an Ultra Soft rubber and with the CHIP Technology that, as a whole, contribute to present a broader sweet spot.
In his speech, Ricky Fernández Brigolle stated: «It is always a challenge to take a step forward in terms of innovation and technology, and even more so when the public always expects news and evolution. Taking this into account, I think we have once again outperformed ourselves for another year with the launch of these new blades. They are sure to have broad support from the public. In addition, they are designed for all types of player, so that each and everyone can find what they are looking for for their game.
Finally, it was anticipated that during the 2017 season will be announced other surprises, how will the new shovels of Gonzalo Rubio and Ángela Caro. At the same time, the first details of the complete Textile Collection of 2017, of the Nitro and Revolt 2.0 shoes (wider and more comfortable) or of the HEAD Pádel Pro ball, Official Ball of the World Pádel Tour and of important Federations such as the Spanish, Portuguese or Swedish.
