What's new with the Siux SX6?

Nueva Siux SX6
When we talk about Siux rackets, the SX series is always a topic of conversation. This is because it is a series focused on the intermediate level, providing a breath of fresh air in an environment where everything is about professionalism and the higher ranges. Below, we present all the details of the latest Siux racket releases, which, on this occasion, feature the new Siux SX6, one of the rackets with the best value for money on the market.

All about the new Siux SX6

Who is the new Siux SX6 for?

The new Siux SX6 is a padel racket for intermediate-level players. This is one of the characteristics of the racket that has not changed, as since its first version in 2014, it was designed with this segment of players in mind. Similarly, what has not changed is the playing style of the racket. It continues to be a versatile racket for those seeking a middle ground between control and power. This allows intermediate-level players to specialize in all areas, having a game that can be aggressive but also defensive.

New fiberglass construction

Delving into the new features of the racket, the most important is the composition materials. The previous version, the Siux SX5, featured a 100% carbon composition for the frame and faces. But now, in 2022, the sixth version of this legendary weapon boasts a new 100% fiberglass composition, also present in the frame and faces. With this change, a much more flexible structure is achieved, focused on maneuverability, control, and comfort in play. Additionally, this material also makes the racket feel lighter and easier to perform agile and fast movements.

Incorporation of Shockout anti-vibrators

Another relevant change is the incorporation of Shockout anti-vibrators. In fact, this is a premium feature, present in several professional rackets in the high-end range of the collection. These new anti-vibrators are two small cylinders made of a soft and elastic silicone-like material. Their objective is to absorb the vibrations generated when hitting the ball, so that they do not travel to the elbow and cause chronic discomfort such as epicondylitis. These anti-vibrators come factory-installed, and are inserted into two holes in the faces of the racket, although the player can change their position as desired.

Completely renovated design

The third new feature does not affect playability at all, although it does bring a breath of fresh air to the series. The old red and black design is left behind to make way for a renovated image, with bolder colors more suitable for a time when a racket that stands out more is sought. For this reason, Siux presents a very striking and unusual design, with different colors for different parts of the racket. The faces have a black base with a slight gradient of blue tones. But the bridge area of the racket is completely bathed in solid and strong blue and red colors. This combination creates a very striking contrast that gives the racket a special touch.

Retained features

Now that we have mentioned the new features of the Siux SX6, it is time to talk about the technical characteristics that remain. Firstly, as we mentioned earlier, it continues to be a versatile racket for intermediate players. The racket maintains the same round shape to have a wide sweet spot and a medium-high balance so that the racket has an extra touch of aggressiveness. Similarly, the same high-density Eva Soft rubber has been preserved. This rubber has a slightly more solid feel, to give it the power needed in a versatile racket. This is how the SX6 becomes one of the strongest bets for progressing players during the 2022 season.
