Adidas Protour Pink 2026 Marta Ortega

The Adidas Protour Pink 2026 Marta Ortega is a round even-balance frame at 360 g with an EVA foam core, built for intermediate control players who want a comfortable, accessible all-court option. Control at 83 and power at 68 confirm this is a precision-first frame. Tolerance at 77 and comfort at 76 make it genuinely forgiving and arm-friendly across extended sessions. Maneuverability at 81 keeps it quick at the net. PRR score: 80/100.

Starvie Arkos

The Arkos 2026 is StarVie's kind control frame at a sensible weight for once: 365 g, head-light, with a fibreglass face scoring control 74 with genuinely kind terms (comfort 74, tolerance 76) and prompt handling (76). Power 62 states the placement brief plainly. Value 74 carries a modest craft premium. This is the StarVie for the brand's gentlest audience: placement-first improvers who want handmade Spanish construction without the house's usual mass. Within the brand it is the easiest recommendation on the shelf; against the control bargains it pays a small premium for the story.
