Bullpadel Xplo Comfort 26 vs Siux Electra ST5 Pro Shadow Red 2026 Franco Stupaczuk

“The Xplo Comfort 26 keeps the Xplo's attacking posture but pads the landing: multilayer foam tunes the strike to comfort 76 and tolerance 76, numbers the standard Xplo cannot approach, while power 82 still gives you a real overhead. Control 76 and maneuverability 72 are steady mid-table. In play it feels like attacking padel with the safety on: you swing, it forgives. Weight documentation is incomplete for this build, so check in hand. Value 74 is fair. For intermediates who love attacking but hate what stiff frames do to their elbow by Thursday, this is the sensible Xplo.”

“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.”
