How EVA Core Technology Is Elevating Padel Performance — And How AMA SPORT Leads with Custom Color Innovation
3 min read
As padel continues to explode in popularity across the globe, players—from weekend enthusiasts to seasoned professionals—are seeking better gear that delivers enhanced control, comfort, and durability. At the heart of this evolution is one material that’s making a significant impact: EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) foam.
Known for its unique balance of elasticity, shock absorption, and lightweight structure, EVA has become the preferred core material for padel rackets. But at AMA SPORT, we’ve taken it one step further—offering custom-colored EVA cores that combine top-tier performance with standout aesthetics.
Why EVA Core Technology Matters in Padel
The core of a padel racket plays a crucial role in defining how it feels, reacts, and performs. EVA foam has become the go-to material due to its ability to adapt to different player needs while offering:
Elastic energy return for a responsive touch
Effective vibration dampening for arm comfort
Lightweight construction for quick movements
Excellent durability under repeated stress
This makes EVA ideal for all types of players—whether focused on control, power, or a balanced style of play.
Common Racket Performance Issues (and How EVA Solves Them)
1. Struggles with Ball Control
A racket that’s too stiff or unresponsive can make it hard to place shots with accuracy. EVA foam, especially in softer densities, absorbs more impact from the ball, allowing for smoother handling and greater control—particularly helpful during net play and defensive shots.
2. Vibration and Arm Discomfort
Frequent impact and prolonged gameplay often lead to wrist and elbow strain. EVA’s natural shock-absorbing properties reduce vibration transmission to the arm, improving comfort and minimizing injury risk.
3. Quick Wear and Tear
Inferior cores can degrade rapidly, affecting consistency and performance. High-quality EVA maintains its shape and responsiveness even with heavy use, making it a dependable choice for serious players.
Custom EVA Core Colors: A New Era of Personalized Performance
At AMA SPORT, we’re proud to offer custom EVA core color options—an innovation that allows racket brands and retailers to bring something truly unique to the court.
Whether you’re designing a racket line that reflects your brand identity or simply want to offer visually distinctive models, our color-custom EVA cores provide both performance and personality. It's not just about how the racket plays—it's about how it looks and feels in the player’s hands.
This added level of customization sets AMA SPORT apart, giving our partners creative freedom while maintaining the professional-grade functionality our EVA cores are known for.

Choosing the Right EVA Core Feel
Different EVA densities offer different gameplay benefits. A softer EVA core gives players more control and comfort, reducing vibration and allowing for a more forgiving response on off-center hits. A harder EVA core increases rebound and stiffness, preferred by aggressive or power-focused players. A medium EVA core strikes a balance between the two—ideal for all-around performance.
AMA SPORT works with clients to select and fine-tune the right EVA solution based on their players’ needs, product goals, and target markets—with the added benefit of custom color options to match branding or product themes.
