Video overview

The Head Radical Team 2026 is an all-round racket for intermediate players who want easier control, comfortable feel and quick manoeuvrability without the weight and stiffness of advanced models.
- Shape: Teardrop, a balance of control and power that covers every part of the game.
- Level: Suits intermediate players.
- Face: Fiberglass, softer and more comfortable on impact. The right choice while you develop.
- Balance: Medium, an even feel between quickness in hand and punch on the ball.
- Weight: 360-370g, a middle-ground weight most players adapt to quickly.
- Standout: Auxetic 2.0 technology strengthens the frame on impact, adding stability and durability without making the racket stiffer to swing.
- Value: Lighter and softer than the Radical Pro, so you get the forgiveness and arm comfort your level needs while you build consistency.
- Fiberglass Surface: Softer and more flexible than carbon, so the face absorbs shock better and the swing feels faster and lighter. You get more comfort on every hit and less stress on your elbow and shoulder, exactly what intermediate players need while they build up match time.
- Control Foam Core: Lighter, softer foam that expands the sweet spot and gives you more feedback on the ball. Mishits stay in play and controlled shots like the bandeja or chiquita come off with better feel and accuracy.
- Auxetic 2.0 Technology: The frame material tightens and stabilises on impact, adding power and durability without making the racket feel stiff or heavy to swing. You get a more solid hit without the harsh vibration.
- Carbon Framework: Carbon reinforcement around the frame edge keeps the racket rigid and durable even though the face is soft fiberglass. The structure lasts and the racket does not twist on off-centre shots.
- Soft Cap + Technology: Dampens vibration at the top of the frame, so shocks do not travel up into your arm. Reduces injury risk and makes long sessions more comfortable.
- New Drilling Pattern: Hole layout designed to maximise control and extend the life of the face. Gives you better precision on placement shots and the surface holds up longer under regular play.
- Interchangeable Cord System: Lets you swap out the grip cord easily for hygiene, safety or personal preference. Simple practical feature that keeps the handle fresh.

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.

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.
