As they have been doing since the beginning of this campaign, the young firm has added a promising player to its staff, which has been showing for several seasons its projection nationwide.

Padel World Press .- Born in Burgos 22 years ago, it is currently the number 1 of Castilla y León, in addition to occupying the position number 107 in the Ranking World Pádel Tour ... And, despite his young age, it should be noted that it is already decade that began to practice this sport on the slopes of the PadelSix Club.

As in many other cases, Jorge started playing tennis until he decided to change the racquet for the shovel and, what began as a hobby, ended up becoming a real passion. When talking about his first steps in this sport, he said: "My first victories came with 16 or 17 years. With that age, I started to train with Gustavo Pratto (who is still his coach) and go regularly to Valladolid, because in Burgos it is difficult to train. "

With firm step, in 2015 he completed a great campaign since, in addition to reissuing his title in Absolute Category in Castilla y León, he managed to impose himself in most of the tests of the Regional Circuit in the company of Javier Martínez and he occupied the third place in the Spanish Championship Sub'23: "The title of Castilla y León is the most important I have achieved so far. I was delighted to be a tournament played at home, so to speak. "

Considered one of the talents to follow more closely the Spanish paddle, if he had to define himself would say: "I am explosive but, at the same time, conservative. I try not to fail a lot and have a balanced game although it is possible that what defines me the most is the explosiveness that I have near the net. The shot in my favorite shot. I am aware that I still have much to improve, especially in defense, which is where my partner helps me most and where I suffer the most. The advantage is that it's probably the easiest aspect to improve, but you have to keep training hard for it. "

And that is what he is doing. Every week he goes to Valladolid where he exercises under Gustavo Pratto along with other players such as Adrián Blanco, also from WingPádel, or Diego Ramos.

When talking about his goals for this 2016, he said he wants to get good results in the World Padel Tour tournaments, but without setting high expectations. "We want to add matches in the WPT events and get more experience. We will try to overcome at least one Pre-Prep Phase. " In the medium term, this student of Civil Engineering at the University of Burgos said: "I would like to reach some day a Final Table of WPT. I do not set great goals. Being there with the best would be a dream. "

On his signing for WingPádel he confessed: "The trust they placed in me from the first moment was key. I had played for other brands, but none had been involved as much as they have. And that, which does not seem to have a direct relationship, indirectly, it is very important for the players ",

Of his shovel, the Wingpadel Air Force, said that it stands out for its versatility and balance: "Since I tried it I loved it. It helps me a lot to defend and I feel very comfortable with it. Undoubtedly, the shovel was a fundamental factor to bet on Wingpadel. "

This is WingPádel ... Fly With Me !!!
