Lok Maxx Flow

“The Maxx Flow Gen 2 is Lok's all-court thesis: an 18K carbon face, usually a violence signifier, tuned into a frame where control 80 leads and power 76 assists. The result plays precise and lively at once, with the face's crispness making blocks and volleys feel exact. Comfort 72 and tolerance 72 keep it friendly, and maneuverability 74 is prompt despite the diamond silhouette. Value 78 continues Lok's aggressive pricing. For advanced all-courters who want premium materials without committing to an attack-frame lifestyle, the Flow Gen 2 is one of the more interesting frames of the season.”

Starvie Astrum Soft

“The Starvie Astrum Soft 2025 is a control-forward frame that earns its description honestly, with a control score of 78 and comfort of 73 that suit intermediate players building a consistent, technical game. Power at 74 sits in the mid-range: enough to threaten from the back, not enough to rely on as a primary weapon. The tolerance rating of 73 adds a forgiving edge, making off-centre contact feel less punishing than comparable frames. PRR score: 80/100.”
