HEAD Extreme Team 2026 265g (16x19) Tennis Racket

HEAD Extreme Team 2026 is a lightweight, powerful, and spin-oriented tennis racket for beginners and intermediate players who want to combine maximum power, high spin potential, and a forgiving sweet spot. Weighing just 265 grams and featuring an oversize 105 in² head, the Extreme Team is the most powerful model in the HEAD Extreme series—perfect for players who want to generate more speed and topspin without having to swing as hard.

The generously sized racket head measuring 105 in² / 680 cm² provides a larger sweet spot and makes the racket more forgiving on off-center hits. Combined with the open 16x19 string pattern , this gives players excellent conditions for generating both power and spin. HEAD’s specially developed Power Grommets give the strings greater freedom of movement upon ball contact, contributing to extra speed and a more powerful response.

The advanced Hy-Bor technology in the racket neck provides increased stability and a solid feel at impact despite the racket’s light weight. Auxetic 2.0 improves contact with the ball and provides clearer feedback, helping the player develop precision and control.

The Extreme Team is also equipped with Spin Shaft, which optimizes lateral stability for increased spin potential, as well as Sound Grommets, which improve string movement and provide optimized sound and vibration response.

With its light weight, larger sweet spot, and powerful construction, the HEAD Extreme Team is an excellent choice for players who want to develop their game and get an extra boost in speed, spin, and stability from the baseline. The modern design with a glossy, metallic finish also gives the racket an exclusive look.

Important information about stringing:

The Head Extreme Team tennis racket comes pre-strung, but House of Bontin offers restringing if you’d like a different string. We have a wide selection of strings to choose from here: . We can also help you choose the right strings if you’re not sure which ones to get—just contact us at info@houseofbontin.se or via our chat. If you already know which strings you want to buy, select them from our selection and leave instructions in the message field at checkout, specifying your desired string tension weight, and we’ll string your racket according to your preferences. If you don’t have a specific weight preference in kilograms, we’ll string the rack according to Head’s recommendations for this model. Strung rackets typically add 1–2 extra days to the standard delivery time.
