Head Extreme motion 2025 Reviews

New unidirectional carbon face feels much more progressive and controlled from the baseline than the wild 2023 version. It moves fast and gives you a friendly medium-high sweet spot, but volleys stay a bit short unless you step in with your body weight. You'll also notice the thick grip and soft butt cap mute the handle bevels, and heavy viboras can flatten out a little.

Full carbon faces make the new version feel much crisper and more controlled from the back of the court than the old model. At 359 grams with a 27 cm balance, it's quick at the net and hits like a little cannon on flat smashes and por tres. The grip sits slightly awkwardly over the new soft butt cap, though, and less experienced right-side players might find it demanding.

A year of play: slightly harder than the Speed Motion, giving more control and more power with a similar sweet spot, though the Speed Motion is more maneuverable.

Just bought the Extreme Motion after four years with AT10 Genius 12K and 18K models, and has played one match with it. Found more ball control, good low defence and much more powerful attacking shots, with a medium-hard touch and a decent sweet spot; the higher balance makes it less agile on sudden reactions, so shots need earlier preparation (comment in Italian).

Now plays the Extreme Motion 2025 after the Coello Motion 2025. Finds it slightly lower in balance and a bit drier, with a little less ball output but more control, and is very happy with it.

A left-side player now using the Extreme Motion 2025 after an AT10 12K, and finds it suits their style better: a big sweet spot, very good in defence, with great control and power.

Swapped a heavy Counter Viper 2025 for the Extreme Motion 2025 and loves it: no loss of control, more time to prepare; only the hardness on fast volleys takes getting used to.

Switched from an AT10 18K 2025 to the Extreme Motion: better placement control, quicker to manoeuvre, the same overhead power and no trampoline.

Great mix of power and control, easy to manoeuvre and defend with; volleys and overheads are its strengths.

Much easier to defend from the back glass than the heavier Pro, especially if you have a longer swing. Smashes and low viboras come off super clean, though it's firmer and less forgiving than the fiberglass Team model.
