Siux Electra ST5 Pro Shadow Red 2026 Franco Stupaczuk vs Tecnifibre Max Bomb

“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.”

“The Max Bomb is Tecnifibre bringing tennis-industry engineering to padel's power segment: a 365 g frame with a foam core and 18K carbon face, producing power 85 with a notably crisp, immediate report. The name is not modest and neither is the strike. The terms match the class: control 68 is the card's rough edge, comfort 64 and tolerance 63 expect conditioning, and maneuverability 66 wants early hands. Value 72 is fair for the face spec. For improving attackers curious about the brand's precise, slightly clinical character, the Max Bomb is a legitimate alternative to the Spanish establishment.”
