The Piton 12K Silver from Black Crown is well-suited for competition-level players who appreciate a harder feel and seek an all-rounder racket. Its round shape and medium balance offer a good blend of attributes for varied playstyles, making it a versatile option for adult and junior competitors. In our hands-on testing, we found this racket’s 18K carbon fiber surface, combined with a medium-firm White EVA Soft core, delivers a firm response on impact. We attributed its control a rating of 6.4/10 and power at 5.7/10, indicating a balanced performance without heavily favoring one over the other. The rough surface type really shines for spin, with us rating it at 8.6/10, which can be a significant advantage in demanding rallies. Its durability also scores well at 7.7/10, suggesting it can withstand the rigors of frequent play. Overall, the Piton 12K Silver is a robust option for players who value a harder feel and excellent spin potential. While its difficulty rating of 7.1/10 suggests it might require a competent hand, it offers a reliable platform for competitive play.

Manufacturer's Description
The Piton 12 silver racket is round in shape with a good balance between control and power. The frame is 2TB CARBON, making the impact sweet spot larger with carbon fiber for greater resistance to impacts. It is made with two layers of LOW DENSITY PITON GLASS fiber, 1 of unidirectional carbon and a final layer of 18K SILVER of the highest quality. This final layer has great durability and resistance to temperature changes, combined with the other three layers of fiber. They give a shovel with a sharp blow of a hard shovel. These layers of fiber are combined with our POWER SOFT MEMOEY EVA rubber that gives it just the right balance to have a balanced racket with a wide sweet spot. Like its sister, the PITON 12 has a rough SANDSPIN finish, which will help you give spin to all your shots. Designed for players looking for more ball output and who like rackets with a harder feel.
