Description

The Speed Team L with the "sensational feel" of Auxetic construction is suitable for beginner and intermediate players that are looking for a fast swinging, lightweight racquet that they can grow with. It's a good option for the up-and-coming new player who wants the latest technologies in an easy-to-handle package as well as for junior players that are making the move into an adult length frame.

The Speed Team L weighs in at a light 9.3 ounces unstrung which will provide very easy manoeuvrability over the course of a match. Players will have an easier time generating racquet head speed with confidence to take bigger swings for easier power and depth on their shots. The racquet balance is even (unstrung) which should provide players with added stability and power, something needed on lighter-weight frames. The head size at 100 square inches provides a relatively generous sweet spot with good access to power potential and some comfort. The open string pattern will increase the pop off the string bed for a relative increase in power potential, provide a bit more comfort as well as enable easier access to spin. The racquet's relative flexibility allows for greater comfort as well as enhanced feel of the ball.

On the technology side, HEAD brings Auxetic technology to the Speed line. Head's Auxetic is an adaptive technology that optimizes ball feedback depending on where the ball is hit on the stringbed. The Graphene technology is being used to strengthen the frame for enhanced stability and power. The other technologies listed in the "technology" section further optimize what makes the Speed series so popular and a favourite among top pros like Novak Djokovic and Bianca Andreescu - the ability to deliver on a game full of speed.

The base specs on this version are comparable to the previous and popular Graphene 360+ Speed Lite, so this new frame should feel right at home in the hands of those players. Players will find enhanced feel to bring even more confidence to their games. This racquet is very easy to swing and will help to assist players in maximizing their performance where the heavier racquets might detract.

  • AUXETIC
    Auxetic constructions show a unique deformation compared to non-Auxetic constructions. Due to their internal properties, Auxetic constructions widen when a “pull” force is applied and contract when squeezed. The bigger the applied force, the bigger the Auxetic reaction.
  • GRAPHENE INSIDE
    Strategically positioned in most of HEAD's racquets, Graphene strengthens the frame, provides greater stability and optimises energy transfer from racquet to ball.
  • POWER GROMMETS
    The enlarged power grommets maximize string movement for increased power.
  • DIRECTIONAL DRILLING
    Directional drilling combine increased power and sweetspot, delivering a plush impact feel.
  • SPEED PATTERN
    A special speed string pattern provides with the perfect mix of power under control.
  • SPEED BEAM
    The aerodynamic cross-section of the Speed beam maximizes swingspeed and power.

Photos used contain images of strings for illustration purposes. Adult tennis racquets are unstrung unless otherwise noted or stringing services have been selected above. Brand logo stencils are not applied by default with stringing services. If you request brand logo stencils, please note that a stencil is painted onto the strings within a brand's stencil and may wear off over time - this is how stencils are applied on tour. Depending on the string you select, the stencil paint application fullness, colour and visibility may vary.
Adult racquets generally do not come with covers. To protect your racquet, we recommend getting a racquet bag.

Product specs such as weight may vary slightly from racquet to racquet to what is advertised due to the manufacturing process.

Adult Racquets Sizing Information
Grip Size Length
L0 (4") 4" (4 inches)
L1 (4 1/8") 4 and 1/8" (4.125 inches)
L2 (4 1/4") 4 and 2/8" (4.25 inches)
L3 (4 3/8") 4 and 3/8" (4.375 inches)
L4 (4 1/2") 4 and 4/8" (4.5 inches)
L5 (4 5/8") 4 and 5/8" (4.625 inches)

To determine your grip size without using a racquet, measure from the tip of your ring finger to the major fold crease in your palm. Write down the distance to the nearest 8th of an inch. This is your standard grip size.

Grip size palm measurements for tennis racquets

If you fall somewhere between the measurements, it is recommended to choose the smaller grip size as you can always build the grip size up using an overgrip (for a slight increase) or a grip build-up sleeve (for a half or full size increase). The grip measurements above factor in the pre-installed factory grip.
