Video overview

The Head Radical Pro 2026 is built for intermediate players who want tactical control with enough weight and power to finish points at the net.
- Shape: Teardrop, a balance of control and power that covers every part of the game.
- Level: Suits intermediate players.
- Face: Carbon, firmer and more direct, turning your swing speed straight into ball speed.
- Balance: Medium, an even feel between quickness in hand and punch on the ball.
- Weight: 365-380g, a sturdier build with more stability and weight behind the ball.
- Standout: At 365-380g it is the heaviest model in the Radical range, giving you stability and racket-head momentum that lighter frames cannot match.
- Value: The step up from entry level buys you a firmer, faster response and the frame rigidity to place your shots under pressure.
- Control Foam Core: A firmer, lighter EVA foam that reduces dwell time and speeds up the ball. Expands the sweet spot for better control on volleys and precision shots when you catch the ball cleanly.
- Double-Layer Carbon Surface: Two plies of carbon fibre on the hitting face for rigidity, power and long-term durability. Stiffer than fibreglass, so the frame flexes less and returns more energy to the ball.
- Carbon Framework: Carbon construction through the frame perimeter for extra rigidity and structural strength. Keeps the racket stable on off-centre hits and adds to the powerful, direct feel.
- Auxetic 2.0 Technology: Material structure that stiffens on impact, increasing power transfer and frame stability. Also improves durability by spreading impact forces across a wider area of the frame.
- Soft Cap+ Technology: Vibration-damping material integrated into the frame to reduce shock transmitted to your arm. Increases comfort over long sessions and lowers the risk of elbow and wrist strain.
- New Drilling Pattern: Revised hole layout designed to improve control and extend frame life. Optimises flex across the face for more consistent ball response on tactical placements.
- Interchangeable Cord System: Easily swappable grip cord for hygiene, safety and personalisation. Lets you refresh the handle feel without replacing the entire grip or racket.

How can I guarantee next day delivery?
Order any in-stock item before our daily cut-off and we'll dispatch it the same day on a next day delivery service, free of charge. Everything listed as in stock is sitting in our warehouse ready to go, so there's no waiting on suppliers. Orders placed after the cut-off, on weekends or on bank holidays are dispatched the next working day. If you need something for a specific date, message us before ordering and we'll confirm it'll make it in time.
How do I choose the right padel racket for my skill level and playing style?
Start with your level, then your style. As a rough guide: round rackets have a big sweet spot and maximum control, ideal for beginners and defensive players. Teardrop rackets balance power and control, perfect for most intermediate players. Diamond rackets are power-focused with a smaller sweet spot, best for advanced, aggressive players. The quickest way to narrow it down is our Racket Quiz, answer a few questions about your level, style and budget and it'll recommend the best options currently in stock. You can also check out our YouTube channel where we review and test rackets on court, or just message us on WhatsApp and we'll recommend one personally.
