[How padell.io earns money](https://padell.io/how-we-earn-money/) The short answer The Siux Beat Control 2026 is a round, low-balance, fiberglass racket labelled for people starting in padel. On paper it leans on control and gives little power. The catch is weight: the listed range runs from 360 g to 375 g, which is not light for a first racket. No reviews exist yet, so this reads from the specs alone. By [Ruud Caris](https://padell.io/about/) · facts checked 16 October 2026 Choose it if - you are new to padel and want a round, forgiving shape to build technique on - you win points with patience and placement rather than with smashes - you prefer a racket with a low balance that keeps the head easy to control Skip it if - you want a racket that reads higher on comfort and sweet spot and would rather look at the StarVie Arkos 2026 or the Babolat Counter Origin - you already hit hard smashes and need a teardrop or diamond shape with more power - you want a lighter racket, since this one can weigh up to 375 g ## How it plays 7.9 **padell.io score 7.9** Play 8.7 (60%) and reviews 6.6 (40%).

Its published specs match this racket on balance, shape, face and thickness. The core is listed as "EVA" there and "EVA rubber" here, which is a label difference, not a measured one. The weight range differs: 355 g to 375 g for the Beat Control 3, 360 g to 375 g here. Beat Control 3 is labelled Beginner / Intermediate. Nothing more is published about how the two differ. ## Price history Today **€ 69.96** Lowest in 30 days **€ 69.38** vs 30-day average **0%** Lowest price per day across the shops in your market. Checked every night. A racket sold to people starting in padel is allowed to weigh up to 375 g. That is the first number to check before you trust the label. ## Starting in padel, at up to 375 g: is the label fair? The listing says "Starting in padel". It also gives a [weight range](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-weight-range/) of 360 g to 375 g. The listing gives a range, so the weight of an individual racket is not specified more precisely. Is that too heavy for a beginner? Not necessarily. The low balance keeps the weight from sitting in the head, which helps you swing it. But 375 g is still a load for a forearm that is not used to padel. As general advice, keep your first sessions short and see how your arm responds. ## Round, low balance, fiberglass: how a control racket gets built Every published spec points the same way. The shape is round. The balance is low. The face is fiberglass and the core is EVA rubber. The thickness is 38 mm. On paper, that adds up to a racket that is easy to aim and slow to produce free power. The [round shape](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-shapes/) and low balance raise control. The fiberglass face, the round shape and the low balance all pull power down. You supply the pace yourself. That suits a learner. You build clean contact and good positioning first. Power comes later, and when you want it, a teardrop shape is the usual next step. ## A large sweet spot, says the product page: why the meter reads Medium The product page claims a large sweet spot, a soft feel and predictable behaviour. Treat that as the shop's wording. The sweet spot meter here reads Medium, and the only driver listed is the round shape. So expect a forgiving shape, not the most forgiving one. Head size and frame details are not published, which limits what the specs can say. The page also says the core absorbs vibration before it reaches the wrist and elbow. The EVA rubber core does raise comfort in the meters. The weight lowers it again, so comfort lands at Medium. ## Where the three listed alternatives read higher Three listed alternatives are also round, fiberglass rackets, and two of them share the low balance. The [Babolat](https://padell.io/brands/babolat/) is head-light. All three read High on comfort and sweet spot, where this racket reads Medium. - [StarVie Arkos 2026](https://padell.io/rackets/starvie/arkos-2026/) has a fixed weight of 358 g and reads High on maneuverability too. - [Babolat Counter Origin](https://padell.io/rackets/babolat/counter-origin/) has a head-light balance and a range of 345 g to 365 g, so it is lighter at both ends. - [Wilson Optix V1 White](https://padell.io/rackets/wilson/optix-v1-white/) (listed as Padel 2) has a soft EVA core and the same 360 g to 375 g range. The pattern is simple. This Siux reads lower on comfort and sweet spot than the three alternatives. Control and low power are the same across all of them. The difference is how easy the racket is on your arm and how generous the hitting area is. ## Smooth surface and EVA rubber: what you can expect from the face and core The surface is smooth, not textured. The product page says textured surfaces add spin but wear out sooner, and that the advantage only matters once your technique is developed. It argues you will not notice a difference at this stage. The profile meters class the EVA rubber core as medium. The [Wilson](https://padell.io/brands/wilson/) lists a soft EVA and the StarVie an S-EVA Flex core. The one other version in the line is [Siux Beat Control 3](https://padell.io/rackets/siux/beat-control-3/). It is also from 2026, with the same balance, shape, face and thickness. Its listed weight range is 355 g to 375 g, and its level label reads Beginner / Intermediate. ## What is not published: balance in mm, head size, frame The balance is only given as "Low", with no figure in mm. Head size and frame material are not published. No review or court test exists yet either. So treat this page as a reading of the specs. If you can, hold the racket before buying and check how the weight feels in your hand.

Both are round, low-balance, fiberglass rackets at 38 mm. The weight range and level label differ slightly, as the versions section shows. **Is it good for a complete beginner?** On paper, yes. The retailer labels it for people starting in padel, and the specs point to high control and low power. The weight of up to 375 g is the point to watch. **Will it be easy on the elbow?** The EVA rubber core and fiberglass face raise comfort, but the weight lowers it again, so the meter reads Medium. The product page claims it absorbs vibration. No tester has confirmed that. **How does it compare with the StarVie Arkos 2026?** Both are round, low-balance and fiberglass. The Arkos reads High on comfort, maneuverability and sweet spot, where this racket reads Medium. You can see them side by side in the [comparison](/compare/starvie-arkos-2026-vs-siux-beat-control-2026/). **Is the beat control 2026 worth the money right now?** Today's price is labelled "Good value" 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.

[Compare side by side →](https://padell.io/compare/starvie-arkos-2026-vs-siux-beat-control-2026/) **Who should not buy it?** Skip it if you want easy power for smashes (power 3.0/10). **How heavy is it really?** The brand gives 360 to 375 g. That counts as medium. Each racket can differ within that range. [Why a range? →](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-weight-range/)
