Design details

Weight (unstrung racket)

280 g. Weight: The weight is measured in grams. Just like balance point and length, the weight impacts a racket's swing weight and therefore its manoeuvrability, stability and ability to transfer energy to the ball (power). The heavier the racket, the more power it transfers to the ball, but the harder it is to handle. The lighter the racket, the easier it will be to handle, but the trade-off is less power.

Balance (unstrung racket)

32.5 cm Balance: This is the racket balance point, measured in centimetres from the bottom of the shaft. The higher the number (head heavy), the more powerful and stable upon impact the racket will be. However, it will also be harder to manoeuvre. The smaller the number (head light or handle heavy), the easier the racket will be to handle but you'll have less power and stability.

Stiffness

Ra Ra: This refers to the racket's stiffness, i.e. how much it bends under the impact of the ball. The stiffer the racket (the higher the Ra), the less it bends. The energy lost on impact is minimised and returned to the ball via the strings. Generally, a stiffer racket offers greater power.

Swingweight (unstrung racket)

SW = Swingweight: This indicates how easy a racket is to handle and its ability to transfer energy to the ball (power). The higher the swingweight, the more powerful the racket, but also the harder it will be to handle. Conversely, the lower the swingweight, the easier the racket will be to handle, but the trade-off is less power. The swingweight is derived from a combination of the racket weight, balance and length.

Stringing:

16 x 19 String pattern: This is the number of mains (vertical strings) x the number of crosses (horizontal strings). The more strings the pattern has, the more "closed" it is; the fewer it has, the more "open" it is. A more closed string pattern offers a greater feeling of control, but less power and spin. A more open string pattern provides more power and spin, but less control.

Length

68.5 cm Length: This is the length of the racket from the bottom of the grip to the top of the head. It is measured in centimetres. The longer the racket, the more power you'll get, but the flip side is that it will be harder to handle. The shorter the racket, the easier it will be to manoeuvre, but you'll have to give up power.

Auxetic

The Auxetic technology perfected by Head is built into the heart of the racket. It optimises the racket's feel and response based on the force of impacts.

Speed Beam

The Speed range's aerodynamic beam maximises spin speed and power.

Speed Pattern

A unique string pattern that provides the perfect blend of controlled power.

POWER GROMMETS

The larger grommets maximise string movement for increased power.

Directional Drilling

The directional drilling combines increased power with a larger sweet spot for more comfortable impacts.
