The Speed Pro has a softer feel with upgraded Auxetic 2.0 technology, providing top-level control and feel for advanced tournament players who need optimized control for their fast-paced and aggressive game.
The Speed Pro is the heaviest racquet in the Speed family at 10.9 ounces unstrung which enables a lot of power with higher stability to enhance players' ability to stand up to a powerful opponent. Due to the head-light balance, the racquet won't feel sluggish and instead will provide players with great racquet speed and manoeuvrability for increased spin potential and faster reactions. The head size at 100 square inches provides a relatively generous sweet spot with good access to power potential and some comfort. The dense string pattern will allow for a little less pop with longer dwell-time as well as more string contact with the ball for greater control and spin potential. The racquet's relative flexibility allows for greater comfort as well as enhanced feel of the ball.
The 2024 edition adds Auxetic 2.0 technology for an updated softer feel, improving on an already sensational feel. The racquet's balance has been altered from the previous generation thereby giving the frame additional manoeuvrability for increased control potential and some additional stability. HEAD has partnered with Berlac, a premium Swiss lacquer manufacturer, to implement a surface that feels softer to the touch while being robust, durable and chemically resistant.
Now with a more solid and comfortable feel, the 2024 edition should delight the previous generation's players while new players will find a racquet that provides the ultimate connection between player and racquet.

- AUXETIC
Auxetic constructions show a unique deformation compared to non-Auxetic constructions. Due to their internal properties, Auxetic constructions widen when a “pull” force is applied and contract when squeezed. The bigger the applied force, the bigger the Auxetic reaction. - GRAPHENE INSIDE
Strategically positioned in most of HEAD's racquets, Graphene strengthens the frame, provides greater stability and optimises energy transfer from racquet to ball. - POWER GROMMETS
The enlarged power grommets maximize string movement for increased power. - DIRECTIONAL DRILLING
Directional drilling combine increased power and sweetspot, delivering a plush impact feel. - SPEED PATTERN
A special speed string pattern provides with the perfect mix of power under control. - SPEED BEAM
The aerodynamic cross-section of the Speed beam maximizes swingspeed and power.
