Speed Pro

Head’s Speed series branding was originally introduced in a tennis racket line jointly developed with Novak Djokovic. This series has been launched to replace the Alpha Series.

All rackets in the series have teardrop shapes, carbon fiber + Graphite frames, silicon vibration-reducing end caps, Power FOAM cores, and smooth surfaces.

This racket is designed for upper intermediate players. It has the power of a high balance racket with a medium-hard touch.

Head’s frames and cores are quite rigid, so despite not being made with a full carbon fiber surface, it is more rigid than many “full carbon” rackets from other brands.
