Our review of the Siux Trilogy Elite
The Trilogy Elite is a classic control build: a round head, a low balance and a 3K carbon face. The round shape centers the sweet spot, the low balance shifts weight toward the handle for quick hands, and the listing emphasizes precision, comfort and a secure grip, which suits a player who builds points with placement.
The listing does not give the density of the EVA core, so the feel is the open question. A round head, a low balance and a 3K carbon face are a common control recipe, so the price is what sets this one apart: about $300 is a lot for the spec.
We have not played it ourselves, so this is an assessment of the listing and the markings on the frame. On paper it suits an advanced control player who likes Siux’s finish and the Elite series.
Pros
- Round head with a low balance for control and maneuverability
- 3K carbon structure and a sandy matte finish
- 355–375 g is a workable weight for long sessions
- Elite series build
Cons
- About $300 is a high price for a round 3K carbon racket
- The listing gives no core density
- Only one unit on the US listing at the time of writing
- Limited power for players who like to finish at the net
Who is the Siux Trilogy Elite for?
The Trilogy Elite suits advanced control players who build points from the back of the court and at the net, and players who want a round racket with a low balance and a matte finish. It also suits Siux loyalists who want the Elite series in a control shape.
Who the Siux Trilogy Elite is not for
Skip it if you are new to padel, if you want power or if you are price-sensitive. Power players should look at the Siux Fenix Elite 5, and players who want a cheaper round racket can look at the Siux Astra Ctrl.
What to know before you buy the Siux Trilogy Elite
Weight and balance
The listing gives 355–375 g and calls it a medium weight. The markings on the frame read 3K carbon, EVA core, round shape and low balance, so the balance is low even though the listing gives no figure in millimeters.
