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.

Astrum Soft 15K

The Astrum Soft 15K pairs a genuinely premium 15K carbon face with a soft EVA core, positioned by StarVie as a discerning player's all-round tool rather than a narrow power or control specialist. The soft core keeps the high-grade face's response comfortable rather than harsh.
