Babolat Counter Origin vs Siux Electra Pro 2026 Fire Red

“The Babolat Counter Origin 2025 is a classically oriented beginner racket built around a forgiving round shape and head-light balance that rewards consistent, controlled hitting rather than aggressive power play. The fibreglass surface and EVA core combine to produce a soft, dampened feel that is genuinely arm-friendly over extended sessions, making it well-suited to newer players still developing their stroke mechanics. However, at its price point the competition from Wilson, Head, and Bullpadel offers meaningfully superior materials and performance, leaving the Counter Origin feeling safe but unremarkable in a crowded entry-level field.”

“The Electra Pro in Fire Red is a lot of racket for the intermediate bracket it is aimed at: power 90 from the EVA core and Carbon 12K face means short lobs get finished properly, and the even balance keeps the frame from feeling like a sledgehammer between shots. Control 78 is trustworthy on drives. The warnings are the usual ones at this output level: comfort 67 is firm for players still building technique, and tolerance 66 will punish the mishits that intermediates naturally produce. If you are an improving attacker with sound basics, it is a thrilling step up; if your contact is still streaky, demo first.”
