Sports reviews of Head MicroGel Extreme Pro Tennis Racquet

Customer Review: Great racket bad color
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I love this racket. I'm a 4.0 male player. I switched to this racket from a Wilson Hyper Prostaff. Although this racket is heavier than the Wilson, it feels lighter because it is head light, where as the Wilson was head heavy. The color is not what I would have picked however. In fact the only reason I tried this racket is because I thought I was buying the Extreme Team version for my wife (much lighter). So look and read carefully, the markings are very similar.

Description of Head MicroGel Extreme Pro Tennis Racquet

The Head Extreme Pro features a new patented technology called MicroGel. When combined with carbon composite fibers in the racquet head, MicroGel deforms and compresses upon ball impact, uniformly absorbing and distributing the impact load around the entire frame, creating a rock-solid feel while offering extra stability against twisting. The new TOUR frame ? the rock solid feel due to MicroGel technology. More weight grants even more power for hard hitters. Great power, speed, and spin, this racquet will give strong, aggressive players all the performance they?ve been looking for. Players will find some useful power from the heft and stiffness of the racquet, yet the level of control remains very high thanks to lots of feel and good ball bite. String Pattern: 16/19. Swingstyle: L3. Balance: 12.2" (310 mm) Colors: Yellow/Black
Offering a perfect combination of weight and balance, Head's MicroGel Extreme Pro prestrung tennis racquet is ideal for today's faced-paced, aggressive game. It's no secret that tennis has changed. New techniques have evolved, included expanded use of spin, faster and more aggressive swing styles, and more versatility in footwork and hitting stances. These "modern tennis" techniques can produce huge gains in performance, but also make huge demands on equipment. That's where MicroGel technology steps in. With the lowest density of any material, Head's MicroGel is a revolutionary new silicone-based material that's teamed with stiff and strong carbon composite fibers to create a racquet with incredibly responsive qualities. On ball impact, MicroGel uniformly distributes the impact load around the frame to provide the most rock-solid feel and superior touch ever achieved.

MicroGel isn't the only improved technology, however. Head's Extreme Pro racquets also offer an increased head width, which allows the ball to slide further across the string bed to produce unmatched spin. The end result of the improvements is a racquet that's extremely light, solid, and fast when you swing through the ball. The MicroGel Extreme Pro differs just a bit from the Extreme, with more weight granting even more power to hard hitters.
