It pairs 12K carbon faces with a high-density EVA core at 355 to 375 g. Every tester praises its smash power. The catch is the small sweet spot, so you need clean, fast technique. By [Ruud Caris](https://padell.io/about/) · facts checked 8 October 2026 Choose it if - you attack from the left and finish points with smashes and aggressive volleys - you already swing fast and hit the center of the face most of the time - you want a hard feel, this model uses a high-density EVA core where the listed Fenix siblings use plain EVA Skip it if - you defend a lot and need quick handling in fast exchanges, this profile sits at the slow end and so do its closest rivals - you are still developing your technique, the Nox Nextgen Pro Attack 12K NFA Series 2026 is listed one level lower but shares the same demanding low-control, high-power profile, so look for a genuinely more forgiving racket instead - your elbow or shoulder already complains, a hard, head-heavy racket like this will make it worse ## How it plays 8.5 **padell.io score 8.5** Play 8.6 (60%) and reviews 8.4 (40%).

Between 2025 and 2026 several labels change. The face goes from 24K to 12K carbon. The core label moves from Hard EVA to high-density EVA rubber. The surface goes from 3D Roughness to Rough. The listed level flips from Advanced back to Professional, and the associated player changes from Álex Chozas to Leo Augsburger. Shape, weight range, balance and 38 mm thickness stay the same. Because the level and player labels flip back and forth between versions, these may be relabelled siblings rather than a clear upgrade path.

Both warn about off-center hits. The split is the sweet spot: padel.how calls it very narrow, Padelvergleich calls it generous for a diamond. They also split on control: padel.how rates it positive, Padelvergleich negative. The four video reviews, all from on-court tests, lean toward padel.how: high power, small sweet spot, demanding to handle, hard on the arm. One adds that the grip is thin and needs an overgrip. The consensus is real power for advanced attackers; the dispute is how much precision that power costs you. [**Padelvergleich** 9.1 Best for Advanced offensive players seeking maximum power Review in German · Read the full review →](https://padelvergleich.de/tests/padelschlaeger/siux/fenix-pro-2026) [**padel.how** 7.1 “It is best suited for advanced and competitive left-side players who generate high swing speeds and dominate points through overhead play.” Read the full review →](https://padel.how/equipment/racket/siux-fenix-pro-2026-black-review/) Two independent court tests of the Siux Fenix Pro 2026 agree on almost everything. Exceptional smash power. A firm, hard feel. A racket that punishes sloppy contact. What they do not agree on is the sweet spot, and that disagreement matters more than the twenty points between their ratings. ## 71 and 91 out of 100: the same racket, twenty points apart Padel.how tested it and gave 71 out of 100. Padelvergleich, a German test that also played it, gave 91 out of 100. That is a wide gap for one racket. Read the details and the gap shrinks. Both praise the overhead power. Both warn that off-center hits are punished. The difference is in how harsh they find that punishment. Padel.how calls it a very narrow sweet spot with harsh penalties. It recommends the racket only for advanced left-side attackers with high swing speeds. Padelvergleich calls the sweet spot generous for a diamond, while still saying it demands clean technique. Four video reviews that played it side with padel.how: small sweet spot, demanding, hard to use. So the rating you experience depends on your contact quality. Hit the center and it is a 91. Miss it and it plays like a 71. ## The sweet spot dispute: narrow for one tester, generous for another Why would two court tests disagree on something so basic? Partly it is calibration: Padelvergleich compares it to other diamonds, and among diamonds it may indeed be forgiving. Padel.how seems to judge it against rackets in general, where a hard diamond with a high balance will always look narrow. For you the practical answer is simple. If you are coming from a round or teardrop racket, this face will feel small. If you already play a hard diamond, it may feel normal. Either way, expect the ball to die on contact near the frame. ## 12K carbon over high-density EVA: where the hardness comes from The construction explains the feel. The faces are 12K carbon over a high-density EVA core, with a carbon frame and a rough surface. Shops list the thickness at 38 mm. High-density EVA is a hard foam. It returns energy fast and gives a direct, firm impact, but it absorbs very little vibration. Combined with the [diamond shape](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-shapes/), that is why the comfort meter sits at Low. One video reviewer noted the grip runs thin and needs an overgrip, a cheap fix worth doing. The rough surface is there for spin on topspin shots and attacking volleys. Siux's product page leans heavily on this, claiming explosive output and easy spin. Treat that as marketing. The tests confirm the power, not the adjectives. ## 355 to 375 g, diamond, high balance: why the arm pays for the smash The [weight range](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-weight-range/) is 355 to 375 g, and the balance is High, as listed by retailers. No exact balance in millimetres is published. Head-heavy means mass sits toward the top of the racket. On a smash that mass works for you, adding pace without extra effort. On defense it works against you. The racket is slower to move. Late contact with a hard face sends vibration into the wrist and elbow. One video reviewer called it physically demanding on the arm for exactly this reason. If you have any history of elbow trouble, this profile is a risk, not a detail. The Fenix family Same year, from most power (left) to most control (right) [**elite**](https://padell.io/rackets/siux/fenix-elite-2026/) **Pro** [**Pro Mad Se**](https://padell.io/rackets/siux/fenix-pro-mad-se/) [**Elite 6**](https://padell.io/rackets/siux/fenix-elite-6/) ## Leo Augsburger plays it on the left: what the pro link tells you Shops list this as Leo Augsburger's racket. He plays on the left, the attacking side, the player who finishes points. That fits everything the testers found. Padel.how recommends it for advanced left-side players with high swing speeds who win points through overhead play. Retailers label the level as Professional and the player profile as Power. Do not read that as a requirement, read it as a warning. This racket assumes your technique is already there. ## Fenix Pro 2026, Fenix Pro 5 2025 or Joma Hyper Pro HRD: picking your power diamond Within Siux, the [Fenix Pro 5 2025](https://padell.io/rackets/siux/fenix-pro-5-2025/) was listed at Advanced level with 24K carbon faces. The 2026 moves to 12K carbon and a Professional label. Augsburger replaces Álex Chozas as the face of the line. The [direct comparison](https://padell.io/compare/siux-fenix-pro-5-2025-vs-siux-fenix-pro-2026/) shows the rest stays put: same diamond shape, same 38 mm, same 355 to 375 g. Outside Siux, the closest rival on paper is the [Joma Hyper Pro HRD](https://padell.io/rackets/joma/hyper-pro-hrd/). Diamond shape, 12K carbon, high balance. Same low control and high power profile. Its weight range is slightly narrower at 360 to 370 g.

Shape, weight and high balance are unchanged. The player linked to the line also changed, from Álex Chozas to Leo Augsburger. **Is the Fenix Pro 2026 suitable for intermediate players?** On paper, no. Retailers list it at Professional level, and every tester describes it as demanding with a small sweet spot. The Nox Nextgen Pro Attack 12K NFA Series 2026 is listed at Intermediate to Advanced, though its power and control profile is just as demanding on paper. **Why do the review ratings differ so much?** Padel.how scored it 71 out of 100 and Padelvergleich 91 out of 100, yet both played it and both praise the smash power. The gap comes from the sweet spot: one calls it very narrow, the other generous for a diamond. Your contact quality decides which rating applies to you. **Is the Fenix Pro 2026 hard on the arm?** It can be. The high-density EVA core, high balance and weight of up to 375 g make a stiff, head-heavy racket. One video reviewer called it physically demanding on the arm. If you have elbow issues, look at a more forgiving model first. **Is the Fenix Pro 2026 worth the money right now?** Today's price is labelled "Fair price" 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.

That counts as medium. Each racket can differ within that range. [Why a range? →](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-weight-range/)
