Head Extreme Pro 2026

The HEAD Extreme Pro 2026-2027 padel racket is aimed at advanced and competition players seeking maximum power in every offensive action. Its diamond shape and high balance make it easier to generate leverage in smashes, víboras, aggressive volleys and X3 shots, making it especially suitable for dominating rallies from attacking positions.

Maximum power for offensive play

This racket is the heaviest model in the Extreme series and is designed for players with solid technique. The Power Foam core responds quickly during fast swings and promotes explosive ball output, helping you add depth and speed without sacrificing a solid response. The high balance concentrates weight towards the head to boost hitting power on finishing shots, although it requires good physical conditioning and technique to make the most of its full performance.

Feel, stability and spin

Auxetic 2.0 technology improves feel at impact and helps deliver a more powerful and precise response. Its carbon frame provides rigidity and stability on intense shots, while the optimized hole pattern expands the sweet spot and offers greater forgiveness when contact is not made exactly in the centre. The Extreme Spin rough surface helps the ball remain in contact with the face for longer, making it easier to create spin on víboras, bandejas, serves and topspin shots. The Soft Cap+ system allows you to replace and personalise the grip cord according to the player's preferences.

HEAD Technologies

Auxetic 2.0: Auxetic technology has been enhanced in its second version and is now positioned both in the bridge area and in the central carbon bar inserted along the grip. This means that, after hitting the ball, the internal structure reacts by transmitting the impact from the face, through the bridge, and directly from the grip to the hand. This provides incredible impact feel and response on every shot, increasing confidence in your game.

Power Foam: The fast-response Power Foam core is perfect for achieving maximum power and strength, enhancing and supporting fast, offensive shots such as the smash, X3 and X4.

Extreme Spin: Extreme Spin is a rough-face technology created with a 3D decal that maximises ball grip to enhance spin on every shot.

UD Carbon HS: The hitting surface is designed with a layer of unidirectional carbon fibre, providing greater strength, rigidity and a more explosive feel in high ball-speed playing situations.

Optimized Sweet Spot: Every racket has its own DNA. Optimized Sweet Spot technology expands the sweet spot area by creating a unique hole pattern tailored to the racket's characteristics.

Tailored Frame: Every racket frame is meticulously designed for optimum performance. This technology allows our rackets to be built without a tubular frame, extending the core material from the face to the edge, maximising the sweet spot and delivering greater forgiveness.

Soft Cap +: The new Soft Cap + butt cap features an interchangeable cord system and an advanced soft-material construction that provides superior comfort and a softer grip. Its customisable design lets you change the cord to suit your style and colour, while also improving hygiene. The soft material is designed to reduce vibrations and help prevent injuries and blisters, delivering a more comfortable playing experience, especially when holding the racket at the bottom of the handle.

Anti Shock Skin Padel: Special polymer sheet that increases the racket's durability by protecting it from impacts and scratches. It can also be easily replaced, maximising its lifespan.
