{"product_id":"alien-2026","title":"Padel Racket Hirostar Alien Core by Tolito Aguirre (2026)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eHirostar Alien Core by Tolito Aguirre 2026\u003c\/strong\u003e is the more measured, control-led member of the Alien line. It keeps the diamond shape and attacking DNA, but the 12K carbon face and EVA Black core make it easier to manage in defensive transitions, slower exchanges and point-building phases. The medium-high balance still gives enough weight behind smashes and volleys, while the sandblasted surface helps creative players use spin as a weapon rather than relying only on raw power. A strong choice for players who want Tolito-style aggression with cleaner control and less punishment than the Alien Pro.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 365–380g — a solid match-weight build for players who want stability through volleys, blocks and overheads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTexture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Matte sandblasted finish — adds extra ball bite for viboras, kick smashes, sliced lobs and controlled spin work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBalance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium-high — gives attacking leverage without feeling as demanding as the Alien Pro.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSweet Spot:\u003c\/strong\u003e Enlarged effective hitting zone — Hirostar’s Smart Holes System is designed to improve manoeuvrability and expand the usable impact area.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlaying Style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Controlled attack — built for players who like to construct points with precision, then accelerate when the opening appears.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlayer Ability:\u003c\/strong\u003e Strong intermediate to advanced — best for players with consistent technique who want a more forgiving Alien-family racket than the Pro version.
