Siux
Editorial assessment · 2026 model
The Diablo Pro 2026 is worth considering if you want a medium-balance carbon racket with a medium-firm feel. It has a teardrop head, 24K TeXtreme face and 355–375 g range. Night Blue is one of two colour options with the same published construction.

Siux USA describes the 2026 feel as medium-hard. In an r/Padelracket discussion about this model, an owner who had played both generations described the 2026 racket as firmer and more direct than Pro 4. Other participants disagreed about how to label that feel. These comments make a trial worthwhile for returning Diablo buyers.
During a trial, include defensive lobs and slower shots as well as volleys and overheads. That will help you decide whether the response suits the strokes you play most often.
Consider an alternative if: You liked the softer response of an earlier Diablo and expect the 2026 model to feel identical.
Babolat
The Bronze version of Babolat's BL.002 Lamborghini collaboration, with a 360 g target and an isometric head. It shares its published construction with Orange. Choose the colour and offer you prefer; there is no verified playing advantage for Bronze.
Adidas
A lighter attacking option with a diamond shape and weight toward the head. Worth a look if you want less base weight without moving to a round control racket. Its sweet spot still sits higher on the face.
Babolat
A teardrop Viper with even balance, a 355 g target and a 16K carbon face. Compare it with Air Veron if you want a different hitting response without moving to the heavier, head-heavy Technical Viper.
