String & Racket Finder

HEAD RADICAL tennis rackets compared

Agassi's old flag, Murray's after him. Current generations carry Auxetic 2.0 and the Graphene legacy layup; the “World Beater DNA” line is doing the heavy lifting emotionally. The mold is a middle-of-everything all-courter — which is the actual product.

Model notes

Radical Team

A light, forgiving all-court frame with a big head and an easy sweet spot. Manoeuvrable to a fault: quick to the ball, comfortable through long sessions, and undemanding on technique. It will not hold its line against heavy pace the way a 300g+ frame does, and it gives back less on flat drives, but as a frame to develop timing and rhythm with it does its job well.

Radical Pro

The grown-up Radical — 98 square inches at around 310g, sitting deliberately in the middle of the all-court map. Nothing about it is extreme: reasonable spin access, reasonable pace, reasonable comfort, no glaring weakness. Feel is moderately damped and communicative. The frame you pick when you do not want the racquet to have an opinion about how you should play.

Choosing between them

Frames in one family share a construction story but not a playing character — head size, pattern and swingweight move the numbers above far more than the marketing does. If you want a shortlist matched to how you actually play, and a string bed matched to the frame, the finder does that in a few taps.
