Head
Extreme MP (2024)
The Extreme MP is Head's spin-focused answer to the Pure Aero — a lively, open-patterned 100 that prioritizes topspin and easy depth over pinpoint control. Head's Auxetic construction gives it a softer, more comfortable response than its stiffness rating suggests, making it a popular choice for aggressive baseliners who want spin without sacrificing feel.

Our review
A high-spin all-court frame that delivers more topspin than the Head Speed line without the firmness of the Pure Aero. Excellent value at $249.
Editorial note
The Extreme MP sits in a great middle ground — it delivers Pure Aero-style spin production with noticeably better arm comfort. A smart pick for the club player who has been eyeing the Pure Aero but worries about arm fatigue.
