## What the specs mean on court

On the numbers, the Black Crown Piton Epic 2025 makes most sense for advanced attackers. It is a weaker choice for beginners, intermediate all-rounders and players with elbow or arm trouble.

A teardrop head is the middle ground: a little more reach and power than a round frame, a bigger sweet spot than a diamond. The harder core rewards a fast, clean swing with pace and precision, and punishes late contact.

### Is the Black Crown Piton Epic 2025 a power or a control racket?

It plays as an all-round racket. The teardrop shape and medium balance sit between round and diamond, trading a little forgiveness for some extra power.

### How heavy is the Black Crown Piton Epic 2025?

### Is the Black Crown Piton Epic 2025 good for tennis elbow?

For a player with arm trouble it scores 62 out of 98, poor fit. A softer core would absorb more of the impact. See a physio if the pain persists.

### How much does the Black Crown Piton Epic 2025 cost?

The recommended retail price is €320. UK shops usually sell below RRP, and the price drops further once the next season's model arrives.
