Description
The HEAD Speed Team 2025 is a racket that sits right in the middle between entry-level models (such as the Evo or Bolt) and the professional Speed Motion. It is designed to deliver speed and power to players who are still developing their technique.
The racket is ideal for intermediate players who enjoy a fast-paced game. If you feel that your beginner’s racket has become ‘too short’ for you and you want more power on the attack, but aren’t ready to switch to the very stiff and heavy PRO rackets, this is the right choice.
Shape and weight
-
Shape: Teardrop. This shape provides an excellent balance between power and control. It helps you ‘close out’ points with powerful shots, whilst still being stable enough in defence.
-
Weight: Approximately 365g. It is slightly heavier than the Speed Motion or Gravity Light, which provides extra stability and ‘mass’ behind the shot, yet it remains well-balanced.
-
Balance: Medium (270 mm), making it a highly versatile racket for any area of the court.
Key technologies
-
Auxetic 2.0: Just like in the more expensive models, the latest shock-absorption and feel technology is incorporated here too. It helps you control the ball better and feel every touch.
-
Power Foam: A soft yet springy foam core that helps the ball ‘shoot out’ of the racket at greater speed whilst requiring less physical effort.
-
Fibreglass: Unlike the Speed Motion hybrid surface, this racket has a pure fibreglass surface. This makes it softer and more comfortable, providing greater ‘bounce’ and reducing strain on the hand.
-
Soft Butt Cap: A soft cap at the end of the handle that dampens unwanted vibrations.
