Royal Padel R Ace Light

The R Ace Light is Royal Padel's 2023 attempt at a quicker diamond: 375 g, light by the house's standards only, with an EVA core delivering power 82 in the brand's deep, elastic style and comfort 69 staying reasonable. Control 68 and tolerance 67 mark it as an attacker's tool, and maneuverability 66 improves on the house norm without escaping it. Value 74 is decent for remaining stock. This is the halfway house between Royal Padel tradition and modern handling: more swingable than the Race, still unmistakably planted. Strong-armed attackers curious about the brand could sensibly start here.

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.
