HEAD Radical Team L – Easy-to-Play Tennis Racquet with Power and Control

The HEAD Radical Team L is a lightweight and maneuverable tennis racquet for players looking for a great combination of power, spin, control, and comfort. With its low weight and generous head size, the model is considerably easier to play with than the Radical MP and Radical Pro, making it a great choice for beginners, recreational players, juniors transitioning to an adult racquet, and players who simply prefer a lighter racquet.

The Radical Team L retains much of the versatile character of the Radical series but in a more accessible package. The racquet is easy to accelerate and suits players who like to vary their game between groundstrokes, topspin, slice, serves, and volleys.

The racquet comes factory-strung and ready to play. However, for improved performance, you can choose one of our recommended strings above.

Low Weight and Easy Maneuverability

The low weight makes the Radical Team L fast through the air and easy to handle. This is particularly beneficial for players who do not want to use a traditional performance racquet weighing 300 grams or more.

The lower weight makes it easier to generate racquet-head speed and get the racquet into position during fast rallies. This makes it a good option for both adult recreational players and younger players transitioning to a full-size adult racquet.

Larger Head Size for More Forgiveness

Compared with the Radical MP and Radical Pro, the Team L has a larger head size. This provides a more generous sweet spot and greater forgiveness when contact is made outside the center of the string bed.

The larger head size also provides easier access to power, meaning the player does not have to generate all the pace themselves.

Auxetic 2.0 – Improved Feel

HEAD's Auxetic 2.0 technology is designed to provide improved response and feel at impact. The construction reacts to the forces generated when the ball hits the strings, contributing to a more direct and controlled playing feel.

This gives the Radical Team L a good combination of comfort and feedback despite its lightweight construction.

Graphene Inside

Graphene Inside is strategically positioned in the frame to strengthen the construction, improve stability, and optimize energy transfer from the racquet to the ball.

This is particularly valuable in a lightweight racquet, where the construction needs to combine low weight with sufficient stability.

Power, Spin and Control

The Radical series is designed for versatile all-court players, and the Radical Team L follows the same philosophy.

The open 16x19 string pattern helps generate power and spin, while the maneuverable construction makes it easy to vary your game. The racquet is therefore a great option for players who do not have one specific playing style and want to use the entire court.

Who Is the HEAD Radical Team L For?

The HEAD Radical Team L is particularly suitable for:

• Beginners and recreational players

• Juniors transitioning to a full-size adult racquet

• Players who prefer a lightweight and maneuverable racquet

• Players looking for a larger and more forgiving head size

• All-court players who like to vary their game

• Players who want easy access to power and spin

• Players who find the 300-gram Radical MP too heavy

Radical Team L or Radical MP?

The Radical Team L is clearly the easier-to-play option. Its lower weight and larger head size provide easier maneuverability, greater forgiveness, and easier access to power.

The Radical MP is heavier and has a smaller head size, providing greater stability and precision but also placing higher demands on the player's technique and swing.

For beginners and recreational players who prioritize low weight and easy playability, the Radical Team L is the more natural choice. For more advanced players looking for greater stability and control, the Radical MP is the better option.
