Head Radical Pro 2021 Tennis Racquet 4 1/2

Head makes big changes to the Graphene 360+ Radical Pro the heaviest member of the Radical family. Specializing in stability and controllable power, the Radical Pro, at 11.7 ounces strung, is ideal for strong intermediates and advanced players. In addition to adding 5 grams to the target weight, the 2021 Radical Pro gets a new mold along with a thinner beam and more arm-friendly flex rating. The signature technology is Graphene 360+, which combines the stability and easy power of Graphene 360 with SpiralFibers in the lower head to enhance feel. Like the previous generation this stick has a Control Pattern which amounts to denser main strings in the center for control, with wider spacing at the margins for a more forgiving feel off-center. On groundstrokes the Radical Pro feels comfortable, solid and surgical. In addition to giving you enough plow-through to trade heavy balls with big hitters, this racquet's control inspires confidence when swinging for power. At net, the Radical Pro not only has the needed mass to comfortably redirect higher levels of pace, it also comes around fast for the weight. It also shines on service returns where blocks, chips and counter-punches come off without a hitch.With some impressive updates to the beam construction and feel, the Radical Pro continues to be an obvious option for experienced players who want the perfect balance between power and control. The solid feel at impact is a nice bonus.
