Our verdict
The Drax 2025 is StarVie's entry attacker, and the 380 g head-heavy build makes the beginner label optimistic: power 73 arrives with real swing-weight behind it, and maneuverability 66 asks more strength than most new players carry. Control 65 and tolerance 65 hold the tier's loose standard; comfort 66 is firm-ish. Value 70 carries the handmade premium into the entry tier, where it struggles. The honest audience is sturdy converts who want Spanish craft from their first frame. Lighter novices should start elsewhere and visit StarVie later.
Genuine handmade construction, heavy for the label
This carries real handmade Spanish construction down to entry money: power arrives with genuine mass behind it, and the head-heavy geometry teaches attacking shapes from the very first session. There's a real craft story here even at the entry tier. The weight is honestly heavy for a beginner-labelled frame, though, and maneuverability asks more strength than most new players actually have — the craft premium bites into value earlier than on the brand's pricier models.
