The people behind NextServes

Late in 2024 we stepped onto a padel court for the first time, and afterwards we ran into the same problem as almost every beginner: a thousand rackets online, and nowhere does it say which one suits your game.

So we ordered and played them ourselves. That's when we saw how wide the gap is between what a racket costs to make and what the well-known brands charge for it. A large part of that gap is sponsorship deals with professional players. You're not paying for those here.

Today we decide the shape, weight, core and carbon density ourselves, and we play every racket before it goes into the range. There are two of us, we're based in Munich, and we answer messages ourselves.
