Now in a standard 27 inch length, the Head Youtek IG Extreme MP introduces lightweight Innegra fiber which in conjunction with Head carbon composite improves shock absorption and stability. Continues d3o and DuPont Teflon grommet technologies in a 'tweener spec, yet player-oriented package.
Due to the standard 27 inch length, expect improved maneuverability compared with past generations of Head Extremes. Other specifications remain very consistent with previous Extreme MP's - 100 square inch head, wider 24/26/23mm tapered beam and 11.1 oz. strung weight. Slightly rounded head shape as well for improved spin potential. More forgiving than the Prestige, Speed, and Radical. More open 16x19 string pattern for enhanced spin and forgiveness.
Head introduces d3o technology in the Head YouTek line, and is a "smart" material in that it behaves differently under varying dynamic loading or impact. Integrated in the frame lay-up and positioned in the shaft area (where the racquet flexes the most), d3o seeks to help players maximize performance on all shots. High speed impacts lock d3o together within nanoseconds at the molecular level, stiffening the frame to provide maximum power. Conversely, on slower speed impacts, the d3o molecules absorb the impact providing softer touch for better feel.
Note: Head does not include a cover with this racquet.
