Siux Pegasus GV Edition

Technologies

Pros

• ✓Ball exit is very high thanks to the EVA Soft core and the 24K carbon: bandejas and viboras travel deep without you having to put your whole arm into the shot. The sweet spot is wide and forgiving for a teardrop: off-centre hits in defence or off the back wall keep their direction and don't die in the net. The anti-vibration system and the medium-hardness rubber filter the impact before it reaches your arm, so you can play long sessions without your elbow noticing the repeated smashes. Maneuverability is very good, with a medium balance: quick volleys at the net and grip changes between block and bandeja happen without any lag.

Cons

• ✗Power is solid but not explosive: on the x3 and the flat smash, a pure hitter will miss a crisper face that gives back all the energy they put in themselves. The rough face and high ball exit punish the player who arrives late: if a shot is played without control of tempo, the ball can fly long on lobs and bandejas. As an all-rounder, it doesn't excel at either extreme: anyone after surgical control or maximum punch will find it a notch below the specialists.

The Siux Pegasus GV Edition features a 24K Twill Silver Carbon face, an EVA Soft core and a teardrop shape, and it was born from the collaboration between Siux and Gianluca Vacchi. It is a padel racket for advanced players who want a versatile tool: not a pure power weapon and not a defensive blade, but a middle ground with a generous ball exit.

Siux Pegasus GV Edition Review: What the Silver Carbon Face and Soft EVA Core Bring

The face is 24K carbon with a twill weave and a silver finish, which gives it its recognisable look. On court, that carbon face delivers a firm, precise response at impact, and the rough surface helps bite the ball to generate spin on bandejas and viboras.

The EVA Soft core changes the character of the whole package. It is a medium-soft EVA core that compresses easily, feels comfortable and extends the time the ball stays in contact with the face. The result is a high ball exit: the racket returns energy without you having to punish it.

On top of that comes the anti-vibration system, which reduces the residual vibration after impact. For anyone who strings together lots of defensive shots off the back wall, that filtering makes the difference between finishing the match fresh or with a sore elbow.

Who Is the Siux Pegasus GV Edition For? Player Level Explained

The Pegasus GV Edition is designed for advanced players who mix attack and defence and don't want to switch rackets depending on the opponent. It asks for an already settled technique to control the ball exit, but its wide sweet spot and comfortable feel make it more forgiving than other teardrops at the same level.

This is not a racket for beginners. With an unstable strike, the high ball exit works against you, and without proper positioning, control suffers.

Smash, Bandeja and Vibora: How the Pegasus GV Edition Plays

The bandeja is where this racket makes the most sense. The rough carbon bites the ball and the soft core launches it with enough depth to pin it to the back of the opposing court, with no need for a long swing. The vibora comes out with clean spin and a good trajectory.

On the x3 and the flat smash, the response is good, not brutal. Power is medium-high: it depends on you supplying arm speed, because the EVA Soft core absorbs part of the impact instead of returning all of it. It is more rewarding on the kick smash, as the rough face helps generate rotation.

In defence and off the back wall, the racket behaves with great composure. The wide sweet spot forgives mishits and keeps the ball's direction when you strike it slightly early or late. The volley at the net is agile thanks to the medium balance and above-average maneuverability.

Is the Siux Pegasus GV Edition Arm-Friendly?

Yes. The medium-soft EVA Soft rubber and the anti-vibration system reduce the shock that reaches your wrist and elbow. It is a reasonable option for advanced players carrying niggles or playing long matches who want a soft response without giving up the carbon face.

Where the Pegasus GV Edition Falls Short

Technical honesty matters: this padel racket is not the best choice for the player who lives off the smash. Its power is solid, but pure hitting power sits a step below rackets designed to attack, because the soft core absorbs part of the energy of the shot.

Nor is it the most surgical control racket. The high ball exit and the rough face demand careful judgement of your force on lobs and short bandejas; if you arrive late, the ball tends to fly long.

Ideal Player Profile and Playing Partner

It suits players on either the right or left side who share the workload: building the point with deep bandejas, defending safely off the wall and finishing when the ball allows. It works well with a partner who takes the initiative in attack, because this racket is better at building than at finishing.

Verdict: A Comfortable All-Round Racket With Plenty of Ball Exit

The Siux Pegasus GV Edition delivers on its promise: a versatile 24K carbon model with a soft feel, good maneuverability and a wide sweet spot. Its strength is comfort and depth of shot; its limit is pure hitting power.

If your game combines solid defence, a long bandeja and the occasional smash, this Siux offers a very usable balance. If what you need is an attacking racket or one with extreme control, you are better off looking for a specialist.
