Who this racket is for
The Softee Oxel is designed for competition or pro-level players who prioritise performance and precision over comfort. 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. The soft hardness provides feel and helps ball exit for players with slower swing speed. Its 360-375g weight range places it in the medium-weight group, the most common among amateur players.
Pros
- ✓Power 9 and ball exit 9 combination delivers strong attacking performance at professional level

- ✓Even balance improves maneuverability compared to head-heavy power alternatives

Cons
- ✗Smooth matte surface limits spin generation — players who rely on heavy topspin need a rough-surface alternative
