I’m a Tecnifibre fan, so when my 355 finally gave up the ghost I did not hesitate to upgrade to the 375 Wall Breaker. I haven’t broken any walls yet but the extra weight and improved balance is helping me up my game and get a bit more power behind my big shots and improve control on the more subtle shots too. Great service comms and price from Padel Corner again, can’t recommend highly enough!

How did you get into padel?
I started playing when padel courts were built at my tennis club. A lot of coaches that worked with me had experience playing, as they grew up playing in Spain. They took me under their wing, and taught me how to play! I’ve been hooked since the first time I played!!
How often do you train/play?
I play 3-4 times a week.
What has been your biggest achievement so far?
Coming second place in a grade 1 tournament in 2022 in Scotland.

Why did you sign with Drop Shot?
Their rackets fit my playing style and the team behind the brand is one of a kind! Love being part of it.
What are your top tips for people looking to get into padel?
Be patient, the wall is your friend, and keep your feet moving! I keep being told to stop hitting so hard. So this is key!
