Piton 5.0
Editorial ratings
A teardrop, all-round member of Black Crown's Piton line. It leans slightly toward power while keeping control and comfort, aimed at intermediate and advanced players wanting a versatile, well-priced frame.
The Black Crown Piton 5.0 2025 sits within the brand's popular Piton family as a teardrop, all-round racket with a modest power lean. Its shape shifts a little weight toward the head for extra punch on drives while keeping handling and a dependable sweet spot for control. Carbon construction gives a responsive surface, and the overall tuning favours versatility, letting intermediate and advanced players defend, build and attack across the court. Compared with the more neutral Piton 13, the 5.0 nudges toward attacking play without becoming demanding. It offers Black Crown's characteristic value and comfortable feel, making it a sensible single-racket choice for competitive club players who want an adaptable frame rather than a specialist power or control tool.
Pros
- Versatile with a power lean
- Comfortable and manageable
- Good value
- Dependable sweet spot
Cons
