Head Speed Team
Overview
Head makes big changes to the Speed Team for 2024! Updated with a generous 105 square inch head, this 10-ounce racquet is ideal for rising intermediate players who want to sharpen their skills with the help of a larger and more forgiving head size. It should also work well for the dedicated beginner who wants a racquet that will reward continued improvement. In addition to its plush comfort, this racquet boasts a low swingweight, which translates to easy acceleration from the baseline and quick handling at net. It also has an open 16x19 string pattern (and large "spin window"), making it easy to control the ball's depth and trajectory with spin. Additional features include a very arm-friendly 61-RA stiffness coupled with a slightly extended length for added momentum on groundies and serves. Technologies include Auxetic 2, a uniquely flexible material in the yolk and handle to optimize the feel and response. The Speed Team also benefits from Graphene 360+ (labeled Graphene Inside), which strengthens the frame in key locations to provide a more powerful and stable hitting experience. Ultimately, this update to the Speed Team checks all the right boxes. Improving players looking for a speedy and comfortable racquet with an easy learning curve should love this one.
