As part of the  Head Padel Open 2023 at My Center Palavas , we met Pierre-Etienne Morillon, Rackets Sports sales representative at Head. After we talked about the Extreme Pro, Motion and Elite, he presented us with a singular palate: the Extreme One. 

Single hole for added strength

“After an intense two-month teasing campaign, today we unveil the Extreme One, a revolutionary racquet that features an all-new design with a single hole. This gives it great resistance, excellent aerodynamics and impressive lightness considering the power it delivers”.

The cure for vibrations?

According to Pierre-Etienne, many players will adopt this new model for its maneuverability and power, despite its featherweight of 345 grams. “It is an ideal racket for players with high arm speed, and it is particularly interesting for dampening vibrations and achieving bandejas.”

The Extrem One: a unisex racket

He assures us that the racket is accessible to all types of players, regardless of their gender. “Its weight makes it suitable for everyone, including players looking for a racquet that penetrates the air quickly and has good arm speed.”

A style that will make people talk

He also tells us about the black look of the racket which, according to him, “will please, and even make people talk. This model has a real particularity, an undeniable plus. As always with Head, we seek to innovate, to revolutionize the market.”

See you in a year!

In response to the question on the future adoption of rackets without holes by players, Pierre-Etienne Morillon believes that it is still too early to answer. “Players are not yet used to playing with a racket without a hole. However, I think we can ask the question again in a year. Something tells me that there will be many followers of this type of racket. Moreover, I am convinced that professional players could one day play with racquets of this type.”

"We'll give you an appointment in a year to take stock of this revolutionary racquet," he concludes.
