Head Graphene 360+ Extreme MP
Overview
Head adds another chapter to the Extreme MP, one of the game's premier modern player's racquets. Like other members of the Extreme family, this racquet features Graphene 360+, which combines the stability and power of Graphene 360 with SpiralFibers in the lower head for a cleaner feel at impact. It also comes with a reinforced Spin Shaft for greater torsional stability, along with 360 Spin Grommets which use larger funnel shaped grommets to enable greater string movement and vicious snapback (think heavier ball rotation). Compared to the previous version, this update has a slightly higher RA, giving it a crisper and more powerful feel. However, even with a slightly stiffer beam, it remains one of the most arm-friendly racquets in its class. On groundstrokes, the Graphene 360+ Extreme MP feels solid at impact, and it packs enough dynamic mass for trading heavy balls with big hitters. Intermediate and advanced players will find it fast enough for whipping up juicy levels of spin or cranking winners on the run. At net the Extreme MP comes around with plenty of speed to deliver a solid feel at impact. It also has enough pop to finish points with a bang. Aggressive servers who can get this stick moving fast will find enough pop, spin and precision to force some very weak replies. The Extreme MP also shines on service returns where it is stable enough to counterpunch a big first serve while also being very dangerous on full cuts. With this update Head continues to improve the Extreme franchise. Aggressive players looking to dominate the court with power and spin should add this to their demo list.
