Head Speed One vs Siux Electra ST5 Pro Shadow Red 2026 Franco Stupaczuk

“The Speed One is Head's accessible attacker: a 365 g even-balanced build with a foam core producing power 83, genuinely quick in hand at maneuverability 72, with control 71 keeping things just orderly enough. Comfort 68 and tolerance 67 sit firm-but-fair for improving players. Value 76 is honest. The pitch is straightforward: most of the Extreme line's finishing pace with meaningfully friendlier handling and terms, at a mid-range price. For intermediates who attack by instinct but have not yet built flagship technique, the Speed One is the sensible way into Head's aggressive aisle.”

“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.”
