Head Graphene Touch Prestige S on TW

[praetorean]

Hi,

Just wondering if TW will ever have the Head Graphene Touch Prestige S?
It seems to be only available in Europe.

isnt the same either, its lighter.

The Touch Prestige S is 295g, down from the 305g XT. Not sure why Head are not releasing it in US. Its not in Aus either. Would make an interesting alternative to the Radical MP. In fact probably the S is closer to the original Rads than the current Rads.

It completely lacked "beef" even at 305g. I think they made the Pro so usable that the S just feel into obscurity. I got the OG Graphene Prestige S in an effort to replace my YouTek Radical MPs... and it was an utter failure and totally different.

No, the original Radical Tour 630 was 325g unstrung. The Prestige MP is what the original Radical used to be. But you are right in that Prestige has become the Radical line.

the S is fine, and perhaps preferable, for just about anyone hitting at sub-4.5 levels of pace. it does have a more hollow/flimsy feel than the MP but its more forgiving and a little quicker.
