A low-intermediate player who loves the touch of their Extreme Pro 2024 but finds it slow on overheads. Tried the new Extreme Motion and found it too hard and still slow.
“Still a bit to heavy/slow for me, mostly on overheads. Everything else feels good. The new extreme motion is to hard and still slow.”
Not soft at all: power foam and a full-carbon face make it one of Head's harder options.
“I have the latter and in my opinion it's not soft at all, it has Head's power foam and full carbon surface so within the Head range there's not a lot of harder options.”
A month in after a Nox AT10: stiffer with no trampoline, a big improvement for them, and it holds up in defence.
“I wanted something that was stiffer and had no trampoline effect and the extreme motion is a big improvement here.”
