Head Extreme Junior vs Siux Electra ST5 Pro Shadow Red 2026 Franco Stupaczuk

“The Head Extreme Junior 2023 is a lightweight, maneuverable teardrop designed to help young beginners develop foundational control and consistency, but its foam core and even balance deliver a muted, unrewarding feel that limits engagement as skills progress. At 320g it swings easily for small arms, yet the construction quality and performance ceiling feel modest relative to its price when stacked against competing junior offerings from Wilson or Babolat. Young players aged 8–12 just picking up a racket will find it serviceable, but ambitious juniors will outgrow it quickly.”

“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.”
