What was it about the serve that you liked better in the extreme touch? And did you get a nice plow through even though its lighter then the pro?.....thank you.
Joseph Rob Thanks for watching. On the serve, I found it easier to add pace and spin. Most likely this was due to the string pattern being more open. For me, the more open a pattern, the better my serve but it isn’t a weapon of mine. I thought the plow through was good for being a non pro racquet. The racquet was almost even balanced while pro is pretty head light. The weight in the head helps with stability and plow. However, I liked the pro better from a plow perspective. On social media, Head indicated they engineered this new Extreme to be one where a pro isn’t needed (more weight in head, etc). I like the specs of the pro better but different strokes for different folks.
Juliano da Costa I have not hit with the Speed MP but you are correct there isn’t much difference outside of the Extreme having a thicker beam and the string pattern for the Extreme, while the same as the Speed, has different (wider) spacing. You will get a bit more power and spin with the Extreme in my opinion.
Kojok WielkiPEP great question...I would give the slight edge to the Touch MP..but both racquets in my opinion have a healthy sweetspt..I like what Head has done to the Extreme just wish there was a Pro.
Good review!

Thanks so much. I agree with you, I wish they would do a pro version......Aside from that, great job on the comparison, and video.
Hey will you be testing out the new Head Extreme 360?
Joseph Rob If I can get my hands on one yes I will be especially if I can get a demo of the Extreme Pro they are bringing back
Are there many differences between Head Graphene Speed MP e Extreme MP? The specifications are practically the same
