Oxdog Hyper Pro 2025 v 2026
I am in the market for my next racket and I am deciding between the 2025 and 2026 versions of the Nox 12k Genius and the 2 Oxdogs.
I currently play the BP XPLO Comfort but I need both a stiffer racket and to return to teardrop/hybrid shape to aid in my defense at higher levels. Oxdog is not available in my country so I won't be able to try it before buying. The price difference is not much.
I'm an aggressive mostly right side intermediate player but I don't look to rush the net right away as I see many do here esp among the younger guys. I wait for good opportunities and am often a counterpuncher who wins a lot of points on defense.
So my questions are:
- Is there any major difference between the Hyper Pro 2025 and 2026 models?
- If anyone has used the 2025 or 2026 models of Oxdog and Nox both to compare stiffness and maneuverability?
I did see a couple videos including one with Dani13 and Manu and it looks like they both think the Hyper is just a little stiffer than the Nox. The control that comes with this stiffness is what I really need as my racket has gotten "mushy" in the midst of a heat wave here.
