The 2025 model is now well below its original price. Here is what it offers and who it suits.

Who Is the Extreme Pro For?

It is built for advanced players who attack. The high balance puts weight in the head for smashes, while HEAD’s Extreme Spin surface helps with víboras and kick smashes.

Good for

  • Advanced attacking players
  • Players who use a lot of spin
  • HEAD fans stepping up from the Extreme Team

Not ideal for

  • Beginners and most intermediate players
  • Defensive players
  • Anyone with arm trouble who wants a soft racket

How It Performs

HEAD uses Auxetic 2.0 in the frame, which it says gives a more consistent feel across the face. In addition, the Smart Bridge at the throat adds stability on hard hits.

The carbon and fibreglass face sits between firm and soft, while the Power Foam Soft core and Anti-Shock Skin take some of the sting out. As a result, it is powerful without being as harsh as an all carbon racket.

Verdict

Overall, the Extreme Pro is a serious attacking racket with some comfort built in. Because of its high balance and spin surface, it also rewards players who swing hard and use spin. On the other hand, it is too much racket for most club players. Still, for an advanced attacker, £164.99 is a fair price.
