HEAD Extreme MP 2026

Introducing the Extreme MP 2026! Specializing in spin and power, this racquet is ideal for intermediate players, but it will also tempt the more advanced ball striker in the market for speed. At only 11.2 ounces strung and boasting a sub 320 swingweight, the Extreme MP comes around fast on groundies, with the kind of spin-friendly targeting that puts the lines in play. Factor in the easy power, and you have the ingredients to keep your opponents squarely on defense. For 2026, Head adds Hy-Bor to the layup, a material technology that uses compression-resistant boron fibers in the shaft to improve stability and energy transfer (think power). Auxetic 2 in the yoke and handle further enhances the feel and response. As with the previous generation, this model features Graphene Inside, reinforcing the frame in key areas for added power and stability. The Extreme MP also has Spin Grommets, which enable greater string movement for increased snapback, and a Spin Shaft, which increases torsional stability for less frame wobble on off-center impact. Ultimately, with improvements to the feel, the 2026 Extreme MP is definitely worth a test drive, especially if you crave a lightning fast racquet with user-friendly access to spin and power.
