“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.”
“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.”
