Siux Electra ST1

If you are looking for a cannon, you are differently out of luck. You really need technique with this racket, and even then you will barely make holes in the ground. You need to smash only the right balls, else you could expose yourself to your opponents counter-attack.

At the baseline, I found it helped me a lot in complicated situations

This is a versatile racket that can help you in all the diverse aspects of the game, above all the control.

The sweet spot didn’t excite me at all - not as generous as you would expect from a versatile racket.

Smashes and viboras come out very well. We liked this racket a lot in aerial shots, it move really fast, and the roughness helps giving a lot of spin to the ball. The long handle helps us exert a lot of leverage, and the ball comes out very quickly.

We liked the maneuverability of the racket in the back of the court - it allows you to defend rapidly.

This racket gives you a lot of control when you want to slow the ball down or give depth to your volleys at the net.

Need a lot of coordination to hit the ball in the sweet spot. It is not very big. It will penalize you when you don’t hit the ball well as the ball will come out less than you expect.

Medium high balance - this racket will give you more performance in offensive shots. The ShockOuts change balance a lot and the change is radical. I’ve left them how they arrived at the bottom for this test.

It maneuvers well but it’s clearly noticeable that its natural habitat is going to be at the net.

The aerial game is where I like this racket the most. Due to the balance and the length of the grip, it gives you nice bandejas and viboras.

The sweet spot is demanding. It is located a little far from the hand. For this reason, I would recommend this racket only to players of a certain level.
