“The Shark is Black Crown's soft-cored, control-first companion to the Wolf, pairing an EVA Soft core with a plain fibreglass face for a comfortable, forgiving strike at accessible pricing.”
“The Special Max is Black Crown's quiet achiever: a Black EVA core and 18K carbon face, specs from the attacking aisle, tuned into a control frame. Control 86 puts lobs and blocks precisely where the point needs them, comfort 76 and tolerance 75 forgive both arms and errors, and the 18K face adds a crispness most control frames lack. Power 74 attacks selectively. Value 78 rounds out one of the better sub-flagship cards we have scored. For intermediates who win with patience but appreciate premium materials, the Special Max is a genuine find from the boutique shelf.”
