Head Graphene Touch Radical series!

The new Head Graphene Touch Radical series is arriving sooner than expected! In addition to new looks, the Radical series is getting an update with Graphene Touch material for a more dampened feel and more connection with the ball. Moreover, the Radical MP is getting 'more body'... Read on.

Graphene Touch

Following the Speed, Instinct, Extreme and also MXG series, the Radical series now gets the expected update to Graphene Touch material. The Prestige series is expected to receive this update in early 2018. Graphene Touch is the 3rd generation of Graphene that Head uses in rackets. Graphene is extremely light and torsionally stiff. Head uses this material around the heart of the rackets for extra torsional stiffness, but also to save weight around the heart of the racket, which is then moved towards the top and grip. This 'polarization' of the weight results in stable and more powerful frames. This Graphene Touch variant feels less hollow and more dampened. This provides more feel with the ball and more comfort.

Head Graphene Touch Radical MP test

The first racket from this new series that we will put through the test is the Head Graphene Touch Radical MP. With this new version of the Radical MP, the balance point has been slightly increased. Compared to the previous (Graphene XT) version, this is noticeable. The racket offers a bit more body and power from the baseline. Read more in our upcoming test report!
