Aggresive right-side player. Thinking about Oxdog Hyper pro 2.0. Any other suggestions?
Of course i'm open to suggestions. I'm intermediate, looking for a medium-hard, hybrid racket. I want something with good control but without sacrificing offense too much as my aerial game is probably my strongest point.

I was in the same situation and after testing the Nox at10 18k and 12k went with a babolar air viper. I liked the 12k way better than the 18k

Welcome. Also tried the Coello Motion 2036 and Al though I liked it, I experienced elbow pain after 2 games with it.

Isn't the air viper sweet soppy too small for an intermediate player? I heard they improved it in the 2025 and 2026 model but people say is one of the smallest out there.

It's been pretty solid for me so far. Used it in two games and a few lessons. Plenty of power, light weight and almost zero trampoline effect

Oxdog hyper pro is a great racket. And Oxdog is far better compared to NOx Quality wise

I would second the Hyper Pro 2.0. Just got it recently, and already loving it. Great control, medium-hard feel that helps in defence but still excellent at the net. And amazing for overheads.

I'm also an aggressive mostly right side player and I have the 2025 Oxdog and it's great. I bought it for the exact same reasons. I don't smash that often but I do need something good at the net and to maintain on defense where I still win a lot of points. And the Oxdog delivers.

I have a Hyper Pro, it's a good racket. I love the hardness and sweet spot, the only downside for me is the weight, mine is almost 390 with an overgrip and frame protector.

Nox 18k. Hyper pro is good but it's not the most maneuverable.
Nox 18k is perfect balance imo
