Players who want reach, spin and a thermoformed build

Dan’s Take
Same length, same 16 mm thickness and a similar price, but a thermoformed polypropylene core against a foam one. The Praxis's Endurafoam core is why it rates higher for power and sweet spot on our scale (10 and 9.5, against 8.5 and 8.5 for the Filth).
The Filth has a much bigger track record with buyers, though: 4.8 out of 5 from 2,400+ ratings on Bread & Butter's site. As of October 2026, the Praxis has only a handful of ratings (5+) on Onix's site, so it's too early to lean on buyer feedback there. If you trust the specs, the Praxis. If you'd rather go with what thousands of buyers already like, the Filth.
