Head Extreme Pro Tennis 2026

HEAD Extreme Pro 2026: Power, spin and competitive control

The HEAD Extreme Pro 2026 is a tennis racket designed for competitive and advanced players who want to combine explosive power, incisive spin and precise control . The 305 gram weight, 98-inch head size and slim profile make this model particularly stable and accurate even in high-intensity rallies.

The open 16x19 string pattern, combined with Spin Grommets, promotes greater string deflection and allows for heavy topspin. Hy-Bor and Auxetic 2.0 technologies improve perceived stability and connection with the ball, delivering a solid and well-defined impact.

Performance on the pitch

The HEAD Extreme Pro 2026 is designed for modern, aggressive tennis. The 630 cm² head size offers precision and directional control, while the 305 gram weight provides the mass needed to counteract powerful shots and keep the frame stable during impact.

The 315mm balance keeps the racquet maneuverable despite its heavy weight. This configuration allows technically skilled players to accelerate the racquet head, generate spin, and intervene quickly on recoveries or during net play.

• Power: The mass of the frame favors deep and penetrating shots.
• Spin: 16x19 pattern and Spin Grommets help produce strong spin.
• Control: The 98-inch deck increases the accuracy of trajectories.
• Stability: Hy-Bor material makes the frame more solid during the swing.
• Feeling: Auxetic 2.0 improves ball feel upon impact.
• Ease of handling: the balance towards the handle facilitates rapid movements.

Technologies and materials

Hy-Bor

The frame features Hy-Bor , an aerospace-grade material designed in the USA. This technology increases perceived stability throughout the swing and provides a more solid feel at impact, creating an effective balance of power, spin, and control.

Auxetic 2.0

Auxetic 2.0 technology improves the frame's response during contact with the ball. The player experiences a more connected and precise impact, useful for controlling depth and directing the shot even in the fastest moments of the game.

Spin Grommets

Spin Grommets allow the main strings to move more freely in different directions. This increased freedom of movement promotes snapback and helps generate more power and spin.

Sound Grommets

Sound Grommets optimize string movement, vibration, and the frame's sound response. The result is a crisp, distinctive impact, accompanied by a feeling of greater power.

Open string pattern 16x19

The 16x19 string pattern maximizes string deflection and facilitates topspin production. It's a setup suited to aggressive players looking for speed, depth, and spin-rich trajectories.

Slim profile

The 22/23/21mm variable beam favors control, feel, and precision. Compared to a thicker frame, it requires good arm speed, but offers the experienced player a more direct and predictable response.
