Aerodynamic, textured graphite paddle that allows for quick reactions due to its light weight and tapered shape. Lightweight/Small Grip HEAD Extreme Tour LITE Graphite 2023 Paddle Designed for precise control, the HEAD Extreme Tour LITE Paddle works to boost touch and reaction time for players who relish hands battles at the kitchen line. The faster swing enabled is created by the combination of the aerodynamic diamond shape and the light 7.2 oz. total weight. This low weight Extreme Tour LITE the lightest in the Extreme Tour line, and is created by building out the 7-7/8" wide by 16-1/16" long paddle with an Optimized Tubular Construction (OTC) honeycomb polymer core. This core creates a slim 11mm thickness, and is augmented by FoamedCore technology which strategically places vibration-dampening foam within the core. This treatment also mutes the ball-on-paddle sound, and results in exceptional touch and control without weighing you down. Atop the high-tech core of the Extreme Tour LITE lies a graphite carbon hitting surface that is coated in HEAD's unique SpinOn texture. This combination of graphite and texture provides tons of bite for precise spin shots, and forgiveness of off-center mis-hits from deeper in the court. Helping you control this paddle for an entire match is made comfortable by the HydroSorb Pro Black grip that absorbs sweat for a tacky, comfortable fit in the palm. The Extreme Tour LITE Graphite Paddle from HEAD offers a light weight and plenty of technology to help you react quickly at the kitchen, and more control all over the court.
