Maxima is a model that was born in 2020 from the fusion between the LW (rounded shape created in 1995) and the Avant (teardrop shape created in 2009). As a result, we achieved a rounded teardrop-shaped racket, designed for players who seek control in their game without losing power.
It is made with a bi-directional carbon tubular and Hypersoft foam core of medium hardness – corresponding to our Winter and Summer (W/S). The core is laminated with a woven layer of 12K carbon fiber, a second layer of plain woven 3K carbon fiber and a third layer of thin glass fiber. Its core and frame are reinforced with 3K plain weave carbon fiber. All these materials are impregnated with Varlion’s exclusive VAR-FLEX epoxy resin for maximum elasticity and strength, and coated with a layer of titanium dioxide.
Thanks to Aerodynamic Drilling, turbulence is reduced, offering greater resistance in the core and greater stability during hitting cause the centre of the racket flexes less. This generates an increase in the sweet spot of the racket.
This professional-level racket has the PRISMA frame, with which we manage to reduce the contact point of the frame against walls and surfaces by 90%, as well as 10% air resistance. All this means better maneuverability of the racket and greater acceleration capacity on hits.
On the other hand, we have reinforced its most fragile point (the head) with an adhesive bumper that adapts perfectly to its shape, the Prisma bumper. This not only covers the frame, but also its connection with the plane of the racket.
The Maxima Human Padel Open includes Summum technology in its construction, which is based on the sum of several factors:
– A longer grip than usual to provide the player with a more comfortable and professional grip, and also to make it easier for those who use both hands on backhand shots.
– A 1 cm longer striking surface.
– Aerodynamic Drilling is the new drilling system that the Pro, Black, Advanced, ITSV and ONE range have in this collection.
– And the Wings Diffuser technology in the heart, with an aerodynamically improved diffuser, which provides more maneuverability and precision.
And finally, it is worth highlighting the Handlesafety technology, a new safety system for the handle. Normally, in all rackets the rope comes out from a centered hole which is attached to the handle frame by means of a pin, rivets, nails, etc. However, with this system, the rope goes through the two walls of the handle and comes out on both sides of the tip, thus giving 100% safety and comfort to the grip.
