The Siux Electra Pro is best suited for advanced all-round players who want extra power from a harder core. Meanwhile, the Wilson Bela Pro V3 fits advanced game builders looking for a versatile feel with a medium core. Both models share a teardrop shape and an even balance, but their distinct core hardnesses suit different tactical approaches on the padel court.

Which one has more power?
When evaluating power output, the Siux Electra Pro takes the lead. In our assessment, we rate the Siux Electra Pro at a 4 out of 5 on the power versus control scale. This extra pop comes from its hard core, as stated by the manufacturer, which yields a firm ball impact. In offensive padel situations such as a flat smash, aggressive vibora, or deep bandeja, the firmer feel aids energy transfer when swinging hard.
By contrast, the Wilson Bela Pro V3 features a medium core according to its manufacturer. In our assessment, we rate its power versus control at a balanced 3 out of 5. While it provides plenty of punch for an advanced frame, it delivers a more neutral power response. Players looking to overpower opponents at the net will find higher maximum output with the Siux, whereas those prioritizing measured pace will lean toward the Wilson.
Which is easier to play and handle on defense?
Defensively, both rackets share foundational geometry. According to their manufacturers, both models feature a teardrop shape and an even balance point. Furthermore, in our assessment, both rackets feature a medium sweet spot. This shared design keeps the balance manageable, avoiding the top-heavy drag often associated with pure diamond shapes.
However, handling and ball exit off the glass differ due to weight and core density. The Siux Electra Pro has a weight range of 355–375 g (manufacturer spec), while the Wilson Bela Pro V3 comes in at a fixed weight of 370 g. Defending off the back glass requires precise timing. The medium core of the Wilson Bela Pro V3 provides a slightly more forgiving feel when absorbing fast incoming balls and resetting the point with a high lob. The hard core of the Siux Electra Pro gives less trampolining effect, requiring active footwork and clean manual execution to push deep lobs out of defensive corners.
How do their construction materials compare?
The structural differences between these two advanced models lie in their carbon weaves and core configurations. The manufacturer specifies that the Siux Electra Pro uses a Carbon 12K frame combined with a hard core. This combination yields high structural rigidity, suited for fast exchange play at the net.
In contrast, the Wilson Bela Pro V3 features a Carbon 24K frame paired with a medium core, according to manufacturer data. While 24K carbon uses a different fiber density than 12K, the overall hitting feel is significantly influenced by the core choice. Because the Wilson uses a medium core, its impact response is less rigid than that of the Siux.
Who should buy which?
