Head Extreme Pro 2026 (305g) racket

The Head Extreme Pro 2026, control and heavy spin for advanced players

The Head Extreme Pro 2026 is the most control-oriented frame in the Extreme range: a tighter 632 cm² head and 305 g unstrung, to attack with confidence without losing accuracy. Its mass delivers the plow-through needed to absorb heavy balls and send them back with margin.

Who is this racquet for?

It targets the advanced player with a long, complete swing, able to generate their own ball speed. The head-light balance at 31.5 cm keeps the frame quick through the acceleration, which makes it a consistent choice for one-handed backhands and for baseliners who dictate rallies with topspin.

The technologies explained

• Hy-Bor : new for 2026, this aerospace-grade material reinforces the shaft and delivers a noticeably more solid, connected impact than the previous generation.
• Auxetic 2.0 : the frame geometry sends real-time feedback, so you feel exactly where the ball meets the strings.
• Spin Grommets : the grommets free up string movement, so the strings snap back more sharply for heavier topspin.
• Open 16x19 string pattern : the signature of the Extreme range, built for ball rotation.

The Extreme Tennis team's view

This is the demanding option of the range: at 305 g with a 98 square inch head, it needs a genuine swing length to come alive. In return it offers accuracy the lighter models never reach, while keeping the spin potential the Extreme is known for. If you are torn between the Pro and the MP, the question is your build and your racquet head speed: the MP forgives more, the Pro rewards commitment.
