Head

HEAD Extreme Pro (2025)

Editorial assessment · 2025 model

The Extreme Pro 2025 is for experienced attackers who like a heavier racket. Its 370 g nominal weight and 270 mm balance are the main reasons to be selective. HEAD's 2025 launch description specifies a unidirectional carbon layer, with Power Foam and an Extreme Spin finish. We would consider it when you want more mass for overheads and firm volleys, and can still prepare it comfortably in defence.

Best for
Experienced attacking players who prefer a heavier, high-balance diamond racket.
Main trade-off
Its substantial setup can suit attacking play while requiring more effort to reposition during a fast exchange.

Our assessment

Extreme Pro or Radical Pro?

Both are listed at 370 g, but the rest of their setup differs. Extreme Pro has a diamond head, a 270 mm balance, Power Foam and a textured face. Radical Pro 2026 has a teardrop head, a 260 mm balance, Control Foam and a smooth face.

Compare Extreme Pro if you like weight towards the head for attacking shots. Compare Radical Pro if you want a substantial racket with a lower balance and a firmer, control-focused response. Neither choice follows from the Pro name alone.

Consider an alternative if: Quick preparation with your current racket is already difficult, or reducing total weight is the priority.

Strengths

  • The 370 g nominal weight suits players who prefer more mass through contact.
  • Extreme Spin adds raised surface texture.
  • The updated butt cap uses an exchangeable wrist cord.

Drawbacks

  • It is a heavy choice for someone moving up from a first racket.
  • Its 270 mm balance will not suit everyone who prefers weight closer to the handle.

FAQ

Is Extreme Pro a heavy racket?
Yes. HEAD lists 370 g nominal, which is towards the heavier end of rackets. Its 270 mm balance also places more weight towards the head than a lower-balance model. Choose it because you like that setup, not because Pro sounds like the next step up.
Is Extreme Pro suitable for a beginner?
It would not be our first recommendation. The weight, balance and attacking design target experienced players. A beginner should start with a model such as Vibe, Bolt or Evo Extreme, then develop a clearer preference before choosing a substantial attacking racket.
