Siux Electra ST5 Pro Shadow Red 2026 Franco Stupaczuk wins by 11 points
Siux Electra ST5 Pro Shadow Red 2026 Franco Stupaczuk scores 91/100 against 80/100 for the Black Crowniton Epic Energy. Its biggest edge is control (+8).
“The Niton Epic Energy is the entry-line version of Black Crown's Epic recipe: a Black EVA core under a 3K face producing the same power 83 as its Piton-badged siblings, with identical terms (control 70, comfort 66, tolerance 65). Weight documentation is incomplete. Value 76 matches the family standard. The honest position: Black Crown's Epic-generation frames are one racket in several outfits, and the Niton badge is usually the cheapest outfit. For improving attackers drawn to the boutique strike, find the lowest-priced Epic in stock, confirm the face spec in hand, and buy that one.”
“Franco Stupaczuk's Shadow Red ST5 is built to attack: power 90 with control 78 is a proper first-strike profile, and the confirmed even balance at 365 g explains why it feels quicker between shots than its hitting power implies. Blocks and counters stay manageable, then the same frame turns a short lob into a finished point. The firm side is unavoidable: comfort 67 and tolerance 66 mean mishits are felt and punished. Beyond balance and weight, full spec for this colourway is unconfirmed, so try before you buy. For aggressive all-court players it is a convincing signature frame.”
