Head Radical Team Light (2026)

Modest at the top end, and the reviews disagree on how much help the frame gives. Depth comes easily on compact swings, but the soft face and low mass leave flat smashes and heavy attacks mostly to the player's own arm.

Dependable for placement at ordinary rally speed. Lobs, blocks and short volleys land where aimed, and the foam core gives a calm response, though it feels less exact when the swing is full and fast.

Among its best traits, though reviews vary on just how quick it is. The light build gets into position fast for volleys and recoveries, while the head-led balance still adds a little leverage on overheads.

Broad and forgiving for a light frame. Central and moderately off-center hits keep their depth, and slightly late defensive contact is rarely punished, although hard pace can twist the frame.

Soft and gentle on the arm. The fiberglass face and foam core absorb much of the shock, which suits players with sensitive elbows or those who play long sessions.
