HEAD Youtek Graphene Speed S Tennis Racquet

Replacing the Speed Elite for 2013, the Head Graphene Speed S brings Head’s latest technological advantage to tweener players everywhere. By using graphene – the world’s lightest and strongest material – in the racquet shaft, Head has been able to move weight from the shaft to the tip and handle, increasing power and stability without changing overall racquet mass (more weight in the head provides greater plow through from the baseline, and more mass in the handle reduces torque and recoil). YouTek technology's “cross-linking” abilities stabilize the frame on faster swings and create more feel on touch shots. Being .3 ounces lighter than the Speed MP, the Speed MP S helps players who need just a little more maneuverability and racquet speed, while the 22 mm beams and 100 square inch head size allow for control of that extra speed. An open 16x19 pattern increases spin production and power. The reduced weight should make the Graphene Speed S a serving delight, and its head light balance makes this racquet a menace from all areas of the court. Baseline and all-court players with shorter swings should definitely consider the Head Graphene Speed S if they’re looking to add more punch to their games.
