Agustín Gómez Silingo’s Volt Padel 1000 is the top of the line power racket. Nicknamed, “Bestia” or “The Beast,” which frankly is a nickname I’m not sure I’m comfortable with, Agustín is strong dude. Famously, he has massive hands, which Volt has accommodated by making the 1000’s handle probably the longest in the industry at about 15 centimeters (slightly longer than the Varlion Summum). The 1000 is a medium-hard touch, high-balance racket with a small, high sweet spot and a comfortable touch.
Volt makes all of its rackets with impeccable attention to detail. I hold a lot of padel rackets, and as soon as I held Volt’s I could sense the quality that went into their construction. The minimal design enhances the sensation of a very solid racket…similar to a Head. Moving onto the court, I found it easier to use than expected. Volt’s “Fast recovery Black Eva Core” is not very hard.
This racket provides a comfort than many medium-hard diamonds don’t offer. This comes at the expense of the sensation of the ball, which can feel slightly muted. We recommend it for advanced powerful players who are looking for a long handle. Note that Volt provides a slick black racket case with its rackets.

"My new racket. High balance, long handled aggressive racket. Core is medium, so it is not as hard and technical to play with as I expected. More relaxing than usual diamonds, more permissive."

"Best for upper intermediate players seeking a high-quality, high balance, powerful, racket with slightly harder than medium hardness. Low ball output at low speeds."
