Nox Equation Hard Advanced

The Equation Hard Advanced rounds out Nox's entry platform with the best arithmetic of the family: value 85 for the HR3 core under a carbon-fibreglass face, scoring the familiar 74/70 split with civil terms (comfort 70, tolerance 70) and prompt handling (72). Weight documentation is incomplete on this listing, so verify against the documented spread. The Equation family's verdict is collective by now: kind or keen, every edition embarrasses pricier mid-market frames, and the correct purchase is whichever edition and weight fits your hand at the week's best price. This one is frequently that answer.

Siux Electra ST5 Pro Shadow Red 2026 Franco Stupaczuk

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.
