HEAD Radical PRO EX15

The paddle uses a 15 mm TriFlex Versatility core with a polypropylene honeycomb center, EPP foam perimeter, and EVA foam shell. Its micro-forged raw carbon face adds a textured hitting surface, while the elongated 16-inch shape and 5.5-inch handle provide extra reach and leverage. At 8.5 ounces, it should feel substantial without being excessively heavy.

Reviewers generally describe it as balanced, stable, and comfortable, with a larger sweet spot than its narrow elongated shape might suggest. The foam-supported construction is also reported to reduce vibration. You can use the longer frame for defensive reach, overheads, and two-handed backhands, but the narrower face requires more precise horizontal contact than a widebody paddle.

This paddle fits your all-court game if you value control and moderate, user-generated power over explosive putaway power. The 15 mm core and carbon face support touch, resets, counters, and placement, while the midweight build gives your drives and overheads enough stability. If you prefer a softer, less harsh feel, you may appreciate the reported comfort and vibration damping.

The elongated shape and longer handle favor your baseline swings, reach, leverage, and two-handed backhands. Spin feedback is mixed: some reviewers describe it as below average to average, while another reports good spin from the raw carbon surface. Choose it for reach and balanced control rather than maximum spin or the widest possible sweet spot.
