The inaugural composition. A paddle forged from 12K aluminised carbon and a proprietary HR3 Black EVA core, numbered by hand in Milano. When the 888th piece leaves the atelier, the series is closed.
The Prima Serie is the paddle we made first because it is the paddle we could not stop imagining. A teardrop profile weighted toward the head for unapologetic power, softened by a medium-density HR3 core that rewards touch as readily as force. It is, above all, an instrument that asks something of the player.
Every frame is built from 12K aluminised carbon โ a weave dense enough to be almost opaque to the eye, bonded with a fine aluminium oxide lamination that gives the surface its distinctive matte sheen. The face is treated with our proprietary MSR-3 sandy finish, applied by hand and cured overnight, increasing ball friction by up to fourteen percent and transforming defensive lobs into attacking spin.
The numbering runs from 001 to 888. No more will ever be made.
Hand-turned, oiled, magnetic close. Brass plate engraved with your serial.
Letterpressed on cotton paper. Names the master craftsman who finished your paddle.
A QR code laminated into the paddle, linked to your private ownership vault.
Biennial re-grip, frame inspection, and refinish at the atelier โ always at no cost.
