The short answer

A 350 g diamond with high balance, made for intermediate to advanced players who want a fast racket at the net. On paper it is a power racket with low maneuverability and a small sweet spot. The one tested review praised its speed and warned about off-centre hits. Not a forgiving first step into diamonds.

By [Ruud Caris](https://padell.io/about/) · facts checked 15 October 2026

Choose it if

- you already hit the ball cleanly and want a diamond that is lighter than the Oxdog Ultimate Pro 2025, Pro+ 2026 and Pro Smash 2026
- you take balls early, use volleys and spin, and like to play at the net
- you like to tune a racket and want a removable weight in the butt cap to play with

Skip it if

- you often catch the ball late or off-centre, since the one tested review calls the sweet spot small and the Dunlop Gravity reads Low there too
- you want more mass behind the ball, in which case the Oxdog Ultimate Pro Smash 2026 is listed at 370 g
- you need the balance in millimetres, the head size or the handle details before buying, since Oxdog does not publish them

Think of a light, head-heavy diamond: quick to get moving, demanding to aim.

- **Control** Low, because the diamond shape and high balance leave little room for error.
- **Power** High, as the carbon face, diamond shape and high balance all push in that direction, even at a light weight.
- **Comfort** Medium, helped by the low weight and the medium-plus core, held back by the high balance.
- **Handling** Low on the meter, because shape and balance count against the low weight.
- **Forgiveness** Low, and the one tested review says the same.

Discusses the specs

The reviewer describes the Oxdog Ultimate Pro Light 2026 as a diamond shaped racket with a medium hard core and a rough surface. It features an adjustable weight system at the bottom of the handle. The racket is best suited for attacking players rather than those who focus on control and volleys.

## Every version

2026 · This racket · € 319.90

[2027 · Different specs · € 319.90](https://padell.io/rackets/oxdog/ultimate-pro-light-2027/)

Two things change in the 2027 version. The surface goes from Rough to Sandy. The weight system goes from a removable 8 g weight to a stainless-steel RBS system with a 6g weight. Balance, face, level, shape and 350 g are listed as the same. The core and frame of the 2027 are unknown, and its listing is still incomplete. So the 2027 is a changed finish and weight system, not a proven new playing character.

## What reviewers say

Only one source has played this racket: padel.how, which rated it 77 out of 100. It liked the speed, the net play and the spin, and rated grip, power, comfort and control positive. It marked the sweet spot as negative. The review says:

"it is unusually fast through the air, but the contact window is less generous than on the standard Ultimate moulds."

One detail does not match. The review mentions a sandy face, while Oxdog lists the 2026 surface as Rough. With a single review, treat all of this as a first impression.

[**padel.how** 7.7 “it is unusually fast through the air, but the contact window is less generous than on the standard Ultimate moulds.” Read the full review →](https://padel.how/equipment/racket/oxdog-ultimate-pro-light-2026-review/)

The one court test of the Oxdog Ultimate Pro Light 2026 calls it unusually fast through the air. It also warns that the contact window is small. That mix says a lot about this racket.

## Fast through the air, small contact window

The reviewer at padel.how rated it 77 out of 100. Praise went to speed, quick net play and spin. Note that the review credits the spin to a sandy face, while [Oxdog](https://padell.io/brands/oxdog/) lists the 2026 surface as Rough. The criticism was the sweet spot, which punishes late or off-centre contact. The review compares it with the standard Ultimate moulds, and finds the contact window less generous.

That fits what the specs suggest. A [diamond shape](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-shapes/) shrinks the forgiving area of the face. The one reviewer found a similar trade-off. You get speed. You pay for it with accuracy.

## High balance in a light frame

The weight is listed at 350 g, both as minimum and maximum. Within the Oxdog family it is on the lighter side. The [Ultimate Pro](https://padell.io/rackets/oxdog/ultimate-pro-2025/) 2025 is listed at 365 g, and the Pro+ 2026 and [Pro Smash](https://padell.io/rackets/oxdog/ultimate-pro-smash-2026/) 2026 at 370 g. The [Pro Smash 2026](https://padell.io/rackets/oxdog/ultimate-pro-smash-2026/) shares the medium-plus core and the diamond shape, but it carries more mass.

The meters read Low for maneuverability. That looks odd for a light racket. The reason is in the drivers. The diamond shape and the high balance both lower it, and only the weight raises it. Oxdog lists the balance as High but gives no figure in millimetres. So the specs point to a racket that is light on the scale but head-heavy in the swing.

## What the face, core and weight system tell you

The face is HES Carbon 8K, with a rough surface according to the brand. The core is listed as Medium+. Carbon with a diamond shape and high balance explains the High power meter. The medium-plus core and low weight explain why comfort lands at Medium rather than Low.

The frame is carbon with PowerRibs, according to one retailer. The product page claims the PowerRibs add power and reduce vibration. Treat that as a brand claim, not a measurement.

Oxdog's RBS system puts a removable 8 g weight in the butt cap. The brand says it lets you adjust balance and weight. How the 350 g figure relates to that weight is not published.

## Rough now, Sandy in 2027

The 2027 version is listed with a Sandy surface. It also has a stainless-steel RBS system that includes a 6g weight. Balance, face, level, shape and 350 g stay the same. Its core and frame are not known, and its listing is still incomplete.

## Next to the Pro 2025 and the Dunlop Gravity

The [Ultimate Pro 2025](https://padell.io/rackets/oxdog/ultimate-pro-2025/) and the [Dunlop Gravity](https://padell.io/rackets/dunlop/gravity/) are similar diamonds with high balance and High power. The difference on the meters is comfort. Both read Low, while the Light reads Medium. The Gravity is aimed at advanced players. The Pro 2025 shares this racket's intermediate to advanced level. On the meters, the Light is the more comfortable of the three.

## What Oxdog does not publish

Several specs are missing. Balance in millimetres, head size, thickness and the handle are not published. The pro player is not listed either. Until they appear, treat the High balance label as a direction, not a number.

If you want a lower level or more comfort, the [Oxdog Ultimate Nxt-Gen 2026](https://padell.io/rackets/oxdog/ultimate-nxt-gen-2026/) is listed for beginners to intermediates and reads High on comfort and Medium on control. Its sweet spot meter is Low too, so it is not a fix for off-centre hits.

## Questions before you buy

**Is the Ultimate Pro Light 2026 a good racket for intermediates?**

Oxdog lists it for intermediate to advanced players. The tested review recommends it for advanced players who take balls early, and the small sweet spot means off-centre hits are punished.

**How does it differ from the Oxdog Ultimate Pro 2025?**

It is lighter at 350 g against 365 g, and its comfort meter reads Medium against Low. Both are high-balance diamonds with a medium-plus core, but the Pro 2025 face is listed as HES Carbon, not 8K.

**Can you change the balance?**

Partly. The butt cap holds a removable 8 g weight that the brand says lets you adjust balance and weight. The shape and head stay as they are.

**What changes in the 2027 version?**

The surface goes from Rough to Sandy. The weight system goes from an 8 g weight to a stainless-steel system with a 6g weight. Balance, face and 350 g are the same.

**Is the Ultimate Pro Light 2026 worth the money right now?**

Today's price is labelled "Pricey today" compared with the rackets that play most alike. Which shops deliver, and what shipping costs, depends on your country. The price comparison shows it for yours.

See all prices

**What is the closest alternative?**

The Dunlop Gravity plays most alike. Differences: handling -1.5, comfort -1.0. Today: € 59.95.

[Compare side by side →](https://padell.io/compare/dunlop-gravity-vs-oxdog-ultimate-pro-light-2026/)

**Who should not buy it?**

Skip it if you rely on placement and long rallies (control 4.5/10), or if you are still learning: it is not very forgiving (3.0/10).

**How heavy is it really?**

The brand gives 350 g. That counts as light. Each racket can differ within that range.
