Star Vie Aquila Pro 25

The Aquila Pro 25 is a junior racket built for young players who are serious about developing their game. At 400g and sized for smaller hands and shorter arms, it gives kids a proper padel experience without the compromises of a toy-grade bat.

Star Vie has a strong reputation for building rackets that perform at every level, and the Aquila Pro 25 follows that approach for younger players. The 25-inch length puts it in the right range for children roughly aged 6 to 9, though arm length and height matter more than age when choosing a junior size. The 400g weight is appropriate for this size category, light enough for a child to swing without strain while still giving enough mass to feel the ball properly. Beyond the size and weight, the full specs on core material and face construction are not confirmed, so if those details matter to you, it is worth contacting us before ordering.

This racket suits a child who is taking lessons or playing regularly and needs equipment that matches their physical size. It is not the right choice for an adult or teenager, and if your child is on the taller side for their age, it is worth checking whether a 26-inch or full-size junior racket would be a better fit. Parents looking for a first-touch option for a very young beginner will find this a solid, brand-backed choice rather than a generic starter racket.

Frequently asked questions

What age is the Aquila Pro 25 designed for?

The 25-inch size generally suits children between 6 and 9 years old, but arm length and height are better guides than age alone.

Is this a proper Star Vie racket or a budget offshoot?

It is a genuine Star Vie product, so it carries the same build standards the brand applies across its range.

How do I know if my child needs a 25-inch or a different size?

A rough guide: if your child is between 120cm and 135cm tall, a 25-inch racket is usually the right fit. Taller children may need a 26-inch or junior full-size.

How should I store and care for it?

Keep it in a padel bag away from direct heat and sunlight, which can degrade the core over time. Avoid leaving it in a hot car.
