The heaviest boy in the Head Speed line delivers what you can expect from this frame. It is a very solid, stable frame. This frame is also very easy to maneuver from the baseline thanks to an improved balance, where some weight from the neck of the racket has been moved to the handle and top, allowing you to generate a lot of speed without having to miss out on the solid feel. What stands out further from the initial test results is that the Head Graphene XT Speed Pro offers a lot of grip on the ball despite the compact 18/20 string pattern. Compared to its predecessor, this racket offers more spin on groundstrokes as well as easier kick on the serve. This is very noticeable: good job by the boys at Head! Do string this frame with a string that adds a bit more comfort and feel; with a stiff polyester string, this racket will be experienced as a bit faster and harsher on the arm.
