DROP SHOT AXION CONTROL 1.0 PADDLE

Player Type: Intermediate-Advanced / Technical
Recommended Level: Advanced, Intermediate

Balance: Low, towards the handle
Playing Style: Control (with powerful ball exit thanks to the EVA core)
Shape: Round
If you want to play with the same paddle as our professional player Jon Sanz, but are looking for an intermediate-level model, the Axion Control 1.0 is the paddle for you. It's a control paddle, balanced and highly playable, thanks to its shape and the rubber we've used in its design.

The Drop Shot Axion Control 1.0 paddle has been designed with a round shape, which provides a large, centered sweet spot and a low balance towards the handle, ideal for quick and precise handling near the net. The core is made of EVA Soft rubber, whose main characteristic is its powerful feel due to its elasticity and lightness, resulting in high ball speed. The faces are made of 12K Textreme Carbon; a flat, bidirectional carbon fiber with 12,000 filaments per strand, much thinner and more flexible, providing an exquisite feel and greater durability.

What type of player is this racket for?

The Axion Control 1.0 is ideal if:

You play at an intermediate or advanced level and prioritize placement and control over pure power.
You're looking for a low balance point that facilitates handling for blocks, volleys, and play near the net.
You want a large sweet spot (round shape) that forgives off-center hits.
You like Jon Sanz's playing style and want his racket in a more accessible version. Full Technical Specifications

The faces feature the Smart Holes System, which distributes the holes in a curved and progressive pattern, providing better mechanical force transfer upon impact, helping to impart spin to the ball and improving vibration reduction. The 3D Face System provides a homogeneous texture across the faces for greater spin on the ball.

Furthermore, to provide extra protection, it incorporates the Ergo Pro Protector, attached to the racket without drilling into the frame to avoid weakening it. Very lightweight and replaceable, it protects against impacts from low volleys and shots against the wall. All carbon-framed rackets are manufactured using the Twin Tubular System, which incorporates a double tubular structure of carbon fabrics pre-impregnated with highly durable resins. This provides uniformity across the entire face and greater rigidity, preventing vibrations in the frame.

To minimize vibrations upon impact, two technologies are incorporated: Vibra Tech Angles, a structure with pronounced angles in the racket's throat area that reduces vibration transfer to the handle; and the Cork Cushion Grip system, a cork sheet in the handle area that prevents vibrations from reaching the hand. Both technologies have been designed by structural engineers and tested in the laboratory. The racket's throat is also designed with Power Beam Heart technology, which incorporates a central beam for greater strength, rigidity, and durability.

One of this season's new features is the Anti Twist System, a unique and exclusive Drop Shot technology developed in collaboration with industrial engineers: a low-density silicone piece that reduces vibrations by almost 85%.

In addition to its innovative technologies, the Drop Shot Axion Control 1.0 padel racket is highly sought after by padel players for its modern and eye-catching design, where details in yellow and red tones add value.
