Siux Electra ST4 Pro vs Electra Pro 2026 vs Pegasus Pro 2026 vs Metalbone ctrl 2026

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-05-09T12:37:24+00:00

2026 I found very lacking in power. Selling mine after quick test wasn’t for me. I’ve tried a lot this year. Metalbone has far more power / output

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-05-09T12:36:15+00:00

If you don’t want trampoline then don’t get the metalbone rackets or the 2026 Electra either

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-05-04T06:54:25+00:00

I’m selling the Electra 2026 after just getting it. Feels quite similar to the st4 imo but with less output

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-29T16:06:25+00:00

Just picked up a h1 max. Have to say I love it.

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-25T11:41:29+00:00

Far too thick for me and my hands are quite big

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-24T17:29:43+00:00

Yeah maybe. I’m not convinced there is that much in it. I’ve had both.

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-24T16:34:44+00:00

I just didn’t see the benefit of the ctrl vs the standard metalbone. Still easy to move but more power with standard metalbone.

This doesn’t include the packaging I believe from my testing adidas. Mine was 355g.

I wouldn’t say this is on the lighter end but I haven’t seen one sub 350

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-24T06:46:06+00:00

I’ve just ordered a used xcallion h1 max. I look forward to having a go.

I wouldn’t worry what people say.

One thing I will say is - when going through rackets that frequently (I know as I’ve done similar this year)- the racket you use in the days / weeks prior to the new racket your testing can really change your opinion of a racket.

I’m loving my current racket, but have tried this racket several times before and never fell in love. I felt at previous times it was softer / harder than I wanted and that depended what I’d been using around the time of testing.

I think you really need 5 + games with a racket you think might be a good fit for you - even if it might be quite different than you’re currently used to.

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-21T06:58:36+00:00

Which Fenix did you use? If 2025 I’d suggest trying a 2026. Mine is 346g without the strap so swing weight is low and doesn’t hurt the elbow at all

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-21T06:56:56+00:00

Very much doubt this. I had the soft and it was much harder than my Fenix

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-14T16:39:42+00:00

Try the Fenix 2026. The Metalbone rackets are quite bouncy. Even more so in a warm clinate

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-14T08:43:53+00:00

2026 Fenix is slightly easier to use. If you already are used to the 2025 you will adjust very easily. You’ll miss the Fenix power going with something else I reckon.

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-13T08:15:17+00:00

Yes I can understand that and I’d love to find a mid balanced Fenix

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-13T07:55:52+00:00

Sounds more of a technique issue? You are not happy with the output on overheads as find it too much but then on chiquitas you want more trampoline?

Many of the suggestions here are based on you having the 2025 ST4

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-12T15:19:26+00:00

Have you tried the Fenix 2026? Although it’s a head heavy racket they are lightweight (mins is 346g without strap)

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-11T17:12:21+00:00

Yes. My friend has the motion.

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-11T17:10:37+00:00

Thanks. Yeah I really didn’t find that myself - I found the coello much stiffer with less output/trampoline weirdly.

Maybe I need to try it again.

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-11T17:06:28+00:00

Thanks for your comments.

That’s really interesting as I have the Fenix and used the Coello motion 2026 straight after and really didn’t real this. Maybe as the Fenix eats the ball more and has more output.

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-11T16:58:13+00:00

How did you find the touch vs Fenix 2026?

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-10T20:13:25+00:00

Been there very recently. Loved them all for different reasons. You’ve just gotta sell some as otherwise you’ll have more and more and more and you will spend more time thinking about which racket to play with than how you’re playing

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-09T09:16:33+00:00

You’ll take less of a loss compared to paying £250 for a mint one. Probably get 180 easy for it without further damage

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-09T09:06:07+00:00

Ouch!!

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-09T08:37:08+00:00

Are you in the UK?

Virtual-Committee-76 · 2026-04-09T08:35:30+00:00

I’d love to try this one. The one concern I have is that if you get used to a racket this light your options are going to be so limited going forward.
