StarVie, the 100% Spanish company founded in 2002 with its own factory in Azuqueca de Henares since 2013, has announced the launch of 10 new models for its 2025 collection, alongside the introduction of the new Drax mold. This range of rackets reinforces the brand's commitment to technology, innovation, and on-court performance, offering amateur players the most advanced padel rackets to enhance their game experience.
For StarVie, this marks the thirteenth collection handcrafted at its factory in Azuqueca de Henares, Guadalajara. The brand continues its commitment to local production in Spain, ensuring the highest quality and durability for each product.
Material innovations for improved performance
The new collection features significant innovations in racket materials, designed to enhance power, comfort, and performance with every shot:
This carbon fiber uses 12,000 filaments that form 12 mm square strands. It is more flexible than 3K carbon, providing a softer feel and great ball response. It is used in the Drax and Raptor models.
This aluminized carbon fiber consists of 15,000 interwoven filaments forming 15 mm square strands. It is even more flexible than 12K carbon, thanks to aluminum’s lightweight and excellent thermal properties, allowing the racket to maintain its qualities regardless of temperature changes. This material offers a very soft feel, enhancing comfort and maneuverability. The Astrum and Brava models feature this fiber in their construction.
A medium-hard density rubber that offers a unique blend of control and power, while providing increased sensitivity when striking the ball. Its versatility makes it suitable for various play styles. Models such as Drax, Tritón, Raptor, and Metheora come with a medium-density version.
The return of a legend: The Brava is back
The iconic Brava model returns with two improved versions, combining StarVie’s cutting-edge technology and exclusive design to meet the needs of players at all levels.
On one hand, the Brava Pro, designed for advanced players, incorporates the new 15K aluminized carbon fiber and Pro 50 hard-density rubber, offering exceptional flexibility and a perfect balance between power and control.
On the other hand, the Brava in its Soft 30 variant is perfect for intermediate players, providing comfort and maneuverability with its soft-density rubber.
Both versions feature the Core Brava system and Noene Inside technology, ensuring a vibration-free playing experience.
Raptor: a racket with unique style
Among the standout designs, the Raptor racket features a matte paint finish, giving it a sleek and distinctive look. This aesthetic detail, combined with the new 12K carbon fiber, makes it the perfect choice for players seeking the ideal balance between performance and style on the court.
