What do HEAD Radical versions share?
Tennis-Point lists every version with a teardrop shape, meaning a head shape between round and diamond. HEAD’s guide describes this shape as offering a mix of power and control for a balanced game. The teardrop racket overview covers that shape across brands.
All use Control Foam, which Tennis-Point rates soft, and all receive its Allround game-type rating. Their listed weights span 355–370 g, with balance points of 255–260 mm. Balance point is the distance from the handle end to the point where the racket balances; these values sit in the lower third of the catalogue checked on 15 October 2026.
How do the Radical versions differ?
The versions below are ordered by listed weight, from lightest to heaviest. Tennis-Point gives them the same shape, core name, soft core rating and Allround classification, but not the same player-level rating.
- HEAD Radical Motion 2026 weighs 355 g with a 260 mm balance point. Its face mixes carbon and fibreglass, and Tennis-Point rates it Advanced. The shop also lists a 38 mm profile.
- HEAD Radical Team 2026 weighs 360 g with a 255 mm balance point. It has a fibreglass face rather than the mixed face of Motion and Pro. Tennis-Point rates it Beginners.
- HEAD Radical Pro 2026 weighs 370 g with a 260 mm balance point. Like Motion, it has a mixed carbon and fibreglass face and an Advanced rating from Tennis-Point.
Which Radical matches your player level?
For a beginner-level shortlist, Team is the Radical carrying Tennis-Point’s Beginners rating. For an advanced-level shortlist, Motion and Pro carry its Advanced rating. The shared soft core and Allround labels do not distinguish those versions by hardness or game type.
Among the advanced-rated versions, Motion is lighter while Pro has the same listed balance point at a higher weight. HEAD’s guide says heavier rackets offer more power and stability but are harder to handle. Use the racket finder to filter by weight and balance, then the racket comparison to place the versions side by side.
Questions
What is the difference between Radical Motion and Pro?
Tennis-Point lists Motion at 355 g and Pro at 370 g, both with a 260 mm balance point. Both have mixed carbon and fibreglass faces, soft-rated Control Foam cores and Advanced/Allround shop ratings.
Is the HEAD Radical Evo included?
The catalogue checked on 15 October 2026 lists Radical Motion, Radical Pro and Radical Team, but no Radical Evo. That does not establish whether an Evo listing exists elsewhere.
How can I identify the Radical model year?
The shop product names include the year: HEAD Radical Motion 2026, HEAD Radical Pro 2026 and HEAD Radical Team 2026. The catalogue contains only that model year for this series, so it does not support a comparison with earlier generations.
