HEAD Extreme Motion 2026
Specification and verdict.
Mapped across the face.
Every measurement is taken on a 5 × 7 grid over the hitting surface and read outward from the sweet spot. Switch layer to see how the frame behaves in each dimension.
Read this before the first hit.
Where to strike, how long to swing and which side of the court it belongs on — read off the stat block and the specification, not the marketing sheet.
Mass and stiffness peak above the centre line — power first, tolerance second.
Aim to strike high on the face — below the centre line the frame loses pace quickly.
Balance 270 mm puts the mass above the sweet spot — free pace on the smash, more effort on quick exchanges. At 360 g it sits in the standard weight window.
Padel handles come in one size; thickness is set with overgrips. Each overgrip adds roughly 1 mm and 5 g in the hand, which pulls the balance a touch lower — useful if the head feels slow. A thicker grip helps to control a head-heavy frame on the volley.
Typical home is the left (backhand) side, where the player takes the overheads and finishes the point. UD Carbon face.
No hard reasons to skip it — the frame does not punish a particular game.

From the maker.
The carbon frame construction provides stiffness to the game. Your smashes and viboras gain immediate power. The drilling pattern expands the sweet spot, so off-center hits still generate pace. Extreme spin technology roughens the surface to grip the ball longer, loading every shot with extra rotation. When you go for the x3 or attack from the net, the ball responds with bite.
Auxetic 2.0 delivers power on contact while keeping feedback clean and controlled. Power Foam reacts to fast swings, amplifying ball output when you accelerate through the shot. The high balance point adds leverage on overheads—you get more from less effort. Soft cap+ lets you swap the cord system to customize the wrist cord and enhance a softer playing feel.
Designed for competitive players who look to take control of every point, this padel racquet delivers explosive power and performance. If you're looking for the firepower of the Extreme Pro in a lighter, more maneuverable frame, the Extreme Motion 2026 offers the perfect balance of power, speed, and handling.
