Anybody know the differences between the different generations of Head extreme Pro line?

[blai212]

So I’m still looking for that holy grail frame (aren’t we all?) and I came across a post where a fellow TW member mentioned how the extreme pro makes it much easier to play against 5.0s with the effortless power/depth/spin of his shots. This piqued my interest, therefore, I must indulge myself. I am looking for a discounted used racquet so I was just wondering if someone would be able to describe the differences between all the different iterations of this racquet. I wouldn’t mind purchasing less desirable paintjob but I dont want the playability to suffer so I want to determine whether it’s worth it to pay a few bucks less for older generation racquet. Thanks

That was probably me and i wouldnt say it is much easier to play against 5.0+ due to a racquet. Its just a better frame for me to be able to grind and hang around in points. Thats really all i meant.

The new model is $150 already. Id pony up for the mp or the prior one. The ones before that were not the same frame.

yep that was u lol any idea how the extreme mp/pro compares to the diadem elevate tour? supposedly the foam injected elevate tour frame plays very similarly to the radical but a more comfortable version

would anybody be able to compare the 360 extreme MP/ diadem nova/yonex ezone 100/vcore pro 100 (300g)...they all seem to be 100 sq in head size with 300g weight but slightly different balances...i wanna know if it’s worth it for me to take the plunge on 360 extreme or the nova. Thanks in advance!

Only used/own the MicroGEL Extreme Pro. Fairly heavy w/leather grip. What has changed?

Would you consider it as an arm friendly racquet? What about its weight?

Yeah, I know. Are there an arm friendly among the others extreme generations?
I would like to try other racquet besides my Liquidmetal Radical MP racquet.

Oh my. Added a leather grip & CAP grommets to my LM Radical. Fond memories.

Funny. I have taken off the leather grip some time ago looking for a more cushioned handle. I just cant remember the sensation so these days I was thinking putting it again.
