Joma Tournament Pro Iconic Black/Red vs Siux Electra ST5 Pro Shadow Red 2026 Franco Stupaczuk

“The Joma Tournament Pro Iconic Black/Red sits in a crowded mid-tier segment where Joma has historically struggled to differentiate itself from more established competitors, offering a round-to-teardrop hybrid profile with moderate power output but uninspiring feel and limited feedback for precise placement. The foam and fiberglass construction typical of Joma's tournament-level range delivers adequate performance for beginner-to-intermediate club players who prioritize durability over finesse. Players new to padel or those on a tighter budget will find it functional, but anyone above a 3.0 level will quickly outgrow its limitations and want more responsiveness from a racket at this price point.”

“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.”
