Siux Electra Go 4 2025

Technologies

Pros

• ✓The Tubular 50/50 frame paired with the 3K carbon face gives you a crisp, snappy response on block volleys — the ball comes off fast without needing to follow through The teardrop shape with its balanced weight distribution keeps the head loose enough for cut bandejas and viboras, without the lag you'd feel from a pure diamond shape The EVA Hard core holds up under repeated smashes without going soft, so the racket feels just as lively in the third set as it did in the first The rough, sandy surface bites into the ball nicely on lifted bandejas and kick serves, giving you that extra effect when you're trying to send the bounce high off the back glass Within the ST4 2025 lineup this is the entry model, and it delivers a feel that doesn't force you to jump to the premium range just to get carbon on the face

Cons

• ✗The EVA Hard core paired with the 3K face demands a committed swing: on dropshots and wall exits with tight space, the ball feels heavy and depth is hard to generate

The Siux Electra Go 4 2025 suits intermediate players who already have a technical base and want to progress without jumping to a too-demanding paddle. Its teardrop shape shifts the sweet spot slightly upwards, striking a balance between control and power. The medium balance keeps a balanced behaviour between baseline shots and volleys. Its 355-375g weight range places it in the medium-weight group, the most common among amateur players.

Siux Electra Go 4 2025: Your Entry Point Into the ST4 Line

The Electra range got a full redesign in January 2025, and the Siux Electra Go 4 landed as the entry-level model in the new ST4 line, sitting below the Elite and Pro versions. We're talking about a teardrop-shaped racket, 355-375 g, 3K carbon face, EVA Hard core and Tubular 50/50 frame — a mid-range spec sheet built with materials that would have been top-tier just a few years back.

What's interesting isn't the materials list itself, but how they're combined. There's a clear design choice here: stiffness up front, firmness in the core, and a frame built to take a beating without cracking. The result is a racket that hits harder than its price tag suggests, and asks for solid technique in return.

What Does the Tubular 50/50 Frame Bring to Your Game?

Tubular 50/50 refers to the frame's tubular construction, with the structure split evenly across both halves of the outline. In practical terms: impact stress spreads across the whole perimeter instead of piling up at the throat, and you feel that both in how directly the shot transmits and in how the frame holds up against scrapes off the wall and floor.

That distribution, combined with the 3K carbon face and EVA Hard core, explains the medium-firm feel you get on contact. It's not the cushioned response of a soft beginner racket, nor the brick-like feel of a pure competition racket. It sits right in between, with ball exit that kicks in once you generate the racket head speed yourself.

On defense, that frame gives you margin: shots that scrape the wall don't produce the harsh crack you'd get from a worse-built frame at a similar price point.

3K Carbon and EVA Hard: Why This Racket Rewards a Committed Swing

The 3K carbon face is a relatively tight carbon weave that stiffens the hitting surface. Translated into feel: the ball doesn't sit on the face — it leaves sooner and flies flatter.

The EVA Hard core pushes in the same direction. A firm EVA compresses less, snaps back fast, and doesn't lose its properties with wear or cold weather. The trade-off is the usual one: if you don't arrive with your arm loaded, the racket won't do you any favors.

This combination puts the Electra Go 4 in a specific spot on the map: plenty of control and real power on tap, but ball exit that isn't automatic. It's the difference between a racket that plays for you and one that amplifies what you bring to it.

Shot-by-Shot Breakdown

Smash. This is where the Electra Go 4 earns its keep. The EVA Hard core doesn't cave in and the 3K face snaps back sharp, so the smash off the back wall and the flat smash both come out with real pace. It takes arm technique, not wrist flicks.

Bandeja and vibora. A medium balance on a teardrop shape is a comfortable combo: the head carries just enough weight to follow through on the cut without slowing your prep. The rough surface bites into the ball and helps a lifted bandeja bounce high off the glass.

Volley. Very direct response on the block. The ball comes off the face fast with minimal arm travel, which pays off in quick net exchanges.

Wall exit. This is where the trade-off shows up. With a dead ball and tight space, the firm core forces you to add arm to get depth. A defensive lob off the wall with the Electra Go 4 takes more work than it would with a soft-core racket.

High defense. With your arm extended and the ball above shoulder height, the medium-firm feel gives you little help. This is the model's clearest weak spot.

What Level of Player Is This Racket For?

The Siux Electra Go 4 suits an intermediate player with an already-developed swing who wants an all-round padel racket and doesn't want to lean on the racket to generate pace. Its high-control, power-on-tap profile calls for someone who already knows how to put their body behind the smash.

It's not a logical pick for a beginner. The combination of the EVA Hard core, stiff face and up to 375 g of weight punishes mishits and off-center contact.

As part of a doubles pairing, it works well on the backhand side for players who mix bandejas and viboras, and on the forehand side too if your pattern leans toward smashing off the back wall rather than chasing the vertical x3. In a pairing where your partner defends a lot, it brings the finishing power that's sometimes missing.

What You Gain — and What You Trade Off

The case for the Electra Go 4 within the ST4 2025 line is simple: it's the point of entry where carbon shows up on the face without stepping up to Elite or Pro pricing. The range was redesigned for a versatile, aggressive player, and this model honors that intent with a more accessible material spec.

What you trade off for it is a demanding racket. Ball exit doesn't come for free, the sweet spot is decent but not forgiving, and at the top end of the weight range you'll feel the fatigue in long matches.

If you're coming from a soft beginner racket, give it three or four sessions before you judge it — the firm feel takes some adjusting to, and the jump in sensations is noticeable. If you already play with a firm core and want an all-round teardrop racket without moving up a tier, this is a solid entry point.
