About This Racket

The Face

The Fibreglass weave is what sets this apart from standard carbon rackets. The face snaps back faster on contact, translating to more ball speed on volleys and a crisper feel on flat shots.

The Core

HEAD's Soft Foam strikes a balance between power and comfort. Firmer than soft EVA found in beginner rackets for better energy return, but not so stiff that it jars your arm.

The Shape & Balance

Hybrid with a medium balance point. Aggressive shape that maximises power on smashes and overhead shots.

Who Buys This

New players who want a reliable, no-fuss racket. Good for casual players who play once a week and want something that just works.
