Which one suits you

Pick the FX Pro 2026 if

  • You want more power: a diamond head puts the sweet spot higher, which helps smashes and volleys.
  • You want the current model (2026).

Pick the Galactica Pro 2025 if

  • You want to spend less: it is £30 cheaper delivered today (£119.99 against £149.99).
  • You want more control and a bigger sweet spot: a hybrid head is more forgiving on off-centre hits.

Not a factor, because they are the same on both: balance (both high), feel (both medium), weight, level (both advanced).
