Head Radical Pro 2023

This racquet is designed for advanced, all-court tournament players. With a strung weight of 330g, it is quite heavy and demanding, so it is best suited for players with developed technique and high swing speeds who can handle the mass.

Auxetic technology is integrated into the frame to provide a more responsive, connected feel at impact. It essentially expands when pulled and contracts when squeezed, which helps the racquet absorb shock and provide better feedback on off-center hits.

Yes, the 16x19 pattern is open enough to generate significant spin on groundstrokes. While it is not as spin-focused as some dedicated 'spin' frames, it offers a great balance between spin potential and the control needed for flat, precise shots.

The variable beam design allows the racquet to offer stability where you need it most while maintaining maneuverability. It provides a crisp, solid response on aggressive shots without feeling overly stiff or sluggish during quick exchanges at the net.

The Radical Pro is the heaviest model in the current Radical series, weighing 315g unstrung. It is built for players who want maximum plow-through and stability, whereas the lighter Radical MP or Team versions are better suited for players who prefer a faster, more maneuverable frame.

The manufacturer recommends a tension range of 48-57 lbs. If you are looking for more power and comfort, stay toward the lower end of that range; if you prioritize control and precision, stringing toward the higher end is a better choice.
