Head Speed ​​Padel Schläger

The Speed series is Head's complete balance between power and control. This series is the successor to their highly successful Alpha series. Many of the same qualities have been carried over, but instead of WPT player Sanyo Gutiérrez (Alpha series), Ariana Sanchez is now the main ambassador of the Speed series.

The Head Speed series includes the following models:

  • Head Speed Pro X
  • Head Speed Pro
  • Head Speed Motion
  • Head Speed Elite
  • Head Evo Speed

Head Speed Pro X

With the Speed Pro X 2023, you get Head’s absolute top-of-the-line racket with a teardrop shape and a head-heavy balance, ensuring you an excellent blend of control and power—though it leans more toward the power side.

As a true top padel racket, the Head Speed Pro X 2023 comes beautifully presented in a unique gift box, setting a high bar for this premium padel racket in black and dark blue tones. The racket is ideal for the quality-conscious player looking for a high-end all-around padel racket with more punch than average due to its head-heavy balance.

  • Weight: 375 grams

Head Speed Pro

The Speed Pro 2023, like its predecessor, has a head-heavy balance, so you get a top racket with great all-around qualities, with a slight emphasis on power.

In their 2023 racket collection, Head has actually produced two rackets that resemble the popular Alpha Pro: the Speed Pro X 2023 and the Speed Pro 2023. The two 2023 versions differ primarily in two parameters: weight and hardness. The Speed Pro X weighs 375 grams and has a 12K carbon surface, while the Speed Pro 2023 weighs 370 grams and has a hybrid surface with a mix of carbon and fiberglass. In addition, the Speed Pro X is slightly more head-heavy than the Speed Pro. This makes the Speed Pro 2023 a bit easier to play with, as it’s more forgiving and slightly lighter, while the Speed Pro X provides a bit more power and impact when you strike the ball well.

The Speed Pro 2023 is an ideal choice for those who want a padel racket with an excellent balance of control and power, with just that extra bite in your offensive shots due to the head-heavy weight distribution.

  • Weight: 370 grams

Head Speed Motion

Introducing the Head Speed Motion 2023! This all-around padel racket comes in a teardrop shape with a neutral-head-heavy balance point. The racket is highly suitable for intermediate and advanced players, all the way up to elite players, who want a fast all-around racket that’s easy to play with but can still generate plenty of power.

The Head Speed Motion stands out for its excellent maneuverability and playability. At 360 grams, it is the lightest racket in Head’s Speed 2023 lineup, and with a surface made from a hybrid material of carbon and fiberglass, it offers an arm-friendly racket that still provides ample power.

  • Weight: 360 grams

Head Speed Elite

The Head Speed Elite 2023 is the direct successor to the Head Alpha Elite racket, which was chosen by many padel players for its versatility and playability. Head has retained these qualities in the Speed Elite 2023, which with its teardrop shape and neutral balance, sits right in the middle of the spectrum of padel rackets.

Compared to the other rackets in Head's teardrop-shaped Speed 2023 series, the Speed Elite stands out with a surface made entirely of fiberglass. This makes the racket very forgiving and ideal for those who may not always hit the center of the hitting surface or who want to protect their elbow and shoulder as much as possible. The racket is therefore suitable for a wide range of players, from intermediate to experienced padel players who want a great all-around racket while reducing the risk of overuse injuries like tennis elbow.

  • Weight: 370 grams

Head Evo Speed

The Head Evo Speed 2023 padel racket is aimed at beginners and intermediate players seeking good control and comfort. The racket has a round head shape and a forgiving surface, providing plenty of control. Head has given the racket a head-heavy balance to ensure you can still get plenty of power in your shots, allowing you to break free when you’re under pressure in defensive situations.

The Evo Speed 2023 is similar in construction to the Head Evo Sanyo racket, which became the preferred choice for many new Head players. This racket is an obvious choice if you want your own quality racket in Head’s well-known design without spending a fortune.

  • Weight: 365 grams

Head Speed Technologies

    The bridge of the racket is specifically developed to support the racket's characteristics, providing maximum benefit in every shot.

  • Optimized Sweetspot
    The hole pattern is designed to enhance the racket's characteristics and optimize the hitting area.
