HEAD Extreme Pro 2026

The HEAD Extreme Pro 2026-2027 padel racket is designed for advanced and competition players looking for maximum power from an attacking racket. Its diamond shape, high balance and 370 g weight are built around an offensive style, giving experienced players the leverage needed for powerful smashes, víboras, aggressive volleys and X3 shots.
As the heaviest model in the Extreme series, the Extreme Pro is aimed at players with solid technique who can handle a more substantial racket. The additional weight combined with the high balance helps generate greater hitting power, particularly when finishing points from attacking positions.
Maximum Power for the Attack
The Power Foam core provides a fast response during aggressive swings and helps produce explosive ball output. This makes the Extreme Pro well suited to high-speed attacking shots such as smashes, X3s and X4s.
Its UD Carbon HS hitting surface adds rigidity and stability, creating a solid response when playing with high ball speed. The carbon frame further supports stability during powerful shots, allowing advanced players to make full use of the racket’s attacking characteristics.
Spin and Responsive Feel
The Extreme Spin rough surface uses a 3D decal to increase ball grip and make it easier to generate spin. It is particularly useful for shots such as víboras, bandejas, serves and topspin.
Auxetic 2.0 enhances the impact response by positioning the Auxetic structure in the bridge and central carbon bar along the grip. This helps transfer the feel of the impact through the racket and towards the hand.
The Optimized Sweet Spot drilling pattern is tailored to the racket’s characteristics and expands the effective hitting area, providing greater forgiveness when contact isn’t perfectly centred.
Comfortable and Customisable
The Soft Cap+ system features an interchangeable cord that can be replaced and personalised according to your preference. Its soft construction also provides a more comfortable grip and is designed to reduce vibrations around the bottom of the handle.
The racket also includes Anti Shock Skin Padel, a polymer protection layer designed to help protect the racket from impacts and scratches. The protective layer can be replaced to help extend the racket’s lifespan.
