This week we are staying with the padel apparel brands!
Cuera is super special for me while Padel Shift's Jack Chaplin and Jack Hazlewood (great friends of the show) are sponsored by them, and I have known about the brand for quite some time.
Ulrik reached out a few weeks ago and we instantly connected. I think it's fair to say that the Danes know how to create goods for the consumers.
This is a must listen for all padel gear lovers

The Padel Pod is an amazing weekly podcast which is talking about Premier Padel and the main players! Gonz and Hugo are just passionate about padel like no one else, and it helps a lot that both of them are bilingual (Spanish and English).

This week I thought it would be useful to talk about the pair changes and what has happened lately in the padel world.
Yanguas-Stupaczuk, Di Nenno-Lebron, Paquito-Cardona and Alex Ruiz-Garrido are the new pairs I talk about in a bit more depth and also about the fastest final of the season and one of the best matches, which ended in a weird handshake, oh well, we all know Lebron now, don't we?

Really interesting chat and definitely worth a listen to the longest episode there has been in the podcast's tenure!

Alfonso Patacho is the most humble and kind hearted individual I came across in the padel world!
Not only is he one of the best players in the UK, but also has a strong Spanish heritage which makes him formidable on the padel court!
He was a bit reluctant to come on the pod, but boy was it worth it.
Great guy and a really interesting insight on where the British are in the world of professional padel!

Jesper is a real renassaince man as we say in Hungary, but in England we would call him a 'Jack of all trades'.
He won 2 WSOP bracelets in his previous life, which I can certainly appreciate a lot as an enthusiastic poker player and nowadays he is dedicating a large chunk of his life to padel!
Co-owner of Rocket Padel and great senior competitor, he already won the Euro Champs in the over 40s and now focusing on making Rocket Padel the UK's biggest padel club chain!
It was great to meet him in person and hope you enjoy this episode!

One of the guys who I definitely wanted to get on the podcast was Joan Suasi, who is the commercial director for the Rafa Nadal Academy!
He is a humble, down to Earth guy, who knows a lot about how to run an academy, while the pressure was always going to be massive, when you are directing in some capacity the goat's academy!
They are putting a lot of focus on the padel side of things, and they have some exciting plans ahead!
Today is the last but one episode on the Padel Summit Week series, and tomorrow is the grand finale! From next week we are back to normal! Enjoy this episode!

Bill is one of those guys, who has been there from the beginning!
We instantly connected even before the Summit, and we definitely wanted to sit down and have a chat about what he has been doing in padel for the last 30+ years!
He told me what he has experienced and why he thinks padel is going in the right direction!
He even called himself a Tyrannosaurus Rex of padel, which I think isn't suiting, but hey, he definitely knows what he is doing.

As promised, Mauri Andrini came on the pod and spoke about his journey within padel!
Mauri is an ex professional player who played with the likes of Sanyo Gutierrez or Fernando Belasteguin (Bela) the goat, himself.

Amazing guy with an amazing agenda!
