AMA SPORT ERA 1.0 Titanium Carbon Padel Racket
A New Era of Consistency.
Most padel rackets are built with standard carbon fiber. The AMA SPORT ERA 1.0 goes further — its titanium-carbon composite surface blends the rigidity of carbon with the torsional properties of titanium, producing a frame that handles lateral twist under impact better than carbon alone. The result is a more consistent feel across the entire face, shot after shot, even on off-centre strikes.
Whether you're trading drives from the baseline or finishing at the net, the ERA 1.0 gives you a platform you can trust. A full carbon and PU leather grip provides structure and comfort in the hand, while the diamond shape keeps the sweet spot positioned for powerful, decisive play.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a titanium-carbon composite surface?
A titanium-carbon composite blends carbon fiber with titanium to create a frame that is both rigid and torsionally stable. Standard carbon fiber is stiff along its primary axis but can flex laterally under off-centre impact. Adding titanium improves resistance to that lateral twist, producing a more consistent ball response across the entire face — not just the centre sweet spot.
How does the ERA 1.0 compare to the FORGE 24K P78?
The FORGE 24K P78 uses a pure 24K carbon surface optimised for maximum stiffness and power transfer — ideal for aggressive attacking players who strike the ball cleanly and consistently. The ERA 1.0's titanium-carbon composite prioritises consistency and feel across the face, making it a stronger choice for all-round players who value reliability, especially on off-centre shots.
Is the diamond shape right for all-round players?
The diamond shape places the sweet spot higher on the face, favouring players who generate power from the back of the court. While it's traditionally associated with attacking play, the ERA 1.0's titanium-carbon surface makes it more forgiving than a standard diamond racket — broadening its appeal to all-round players who want power without sacrificing consistency.
What do the different model finishes mean (3K, 12K, 18K)?
The K-number refers to the carbon fiber weave specification on the surface finish. 3K (3,000 filaments per bundle) produces a fine, tight weave. 12K is a mid-range weave with a balance of texture and stiffness. 18K has larger bundles and a coarser weave, maximising surface rigidity. The titanium-carbon composite construction applies across all variants — the finish affects aesthetics and surface feel rather than the core structural properties.
Is the ERA 1.0 suitable for outdoor play?
Yes — the ERA 1.0 is specifically rated for outdoor sports. Its shock-resistant construction and durable composite surface handle the faster ball speeds and harder court conditions typical of outdoor padel.
