Our verdict

The Piton 14 continues Black Crown's long-running Piton line, pairing a 3K carbon face with Low Density Piton Glass technology and an SC Black EVA core for a genuine 50/50 power-control balance. It's built to be reliable and versatile across every phase of the game rather than lean toward either extreme.

We loved
  • Genuine Piton-line pedigree with real balanced construction
  • 3K carbon face with Low Density Piton Glass adds comfortable, stable output
  • Excellent manoeuvrability for a round, all-court shape
Worth knowing
  • Doesn't chase a specialist edge in either power or control
  • Sits in a crowded field of Black Crown's own Piton variants

A genuinely balanced evolution of a proven line

Black Crown keeps the Piton line's core identity intact - a real 3K carbon face and a comfortable EVA core built for a genuine 50/50 split between power and control rather than a lean toward either. It suits an intermediate-to-advanced player who wants one dependable racket that handles every situation well.
