a stick for the new game...
By a. chigurh
I bought 2 of these a month ago looking to explore the direction a different racquet might take my game. currently I hit with the dunlop 2oog XL and love it, but have had some success with head racquets. anyway, the radical mid+ is very light and feels brittle w/out actually being too stiff. it is definitely designed for the modern game's emphasis on racquet head speed, with a light head balance meant for some serious acceleration. off the ground the racquet felt pretty good after I applied some lead tape, and definitely benefits from stringing on the low side of the tension range. higher tensions gave the physical impression of the ball falling off the strings with little penetration. on slices, the radical produced lovely vector-like trajectories that were very satisfying to hit indeed. on serve, the radical provided for much pop, easily rivaling anything I can hit w/the dunlop. the tight string pattern requires more effort to impart serious spin, but serves could be placed accurately. the radical shines in the service dept. but... the real treat was volleying. ye gods this racquet volleys well. crisp, controlled shots I could put anywhere, from the service line up to net, half-volleys, low below-net scoopers, against pace or soft shots. very solid and very maneuverable. the highlight of my month long adventure. so having said all these nice things about the radical, why did I go back to the 2ooXL? well, as I said before, the radical is about the emphasis on racquet head speed. this concept dominates the game now, as every one tries to emulate roger and rafa et al. which is fine, but that game requires so much effort and a racquet like this requires that game like a german sports sedan requires high test fuel. it's too much, and although I can operate in that arena, my game is much more about dynamic control and variation. I take the ball early and redirect alot, think vintage mecir, and I need a racquet that's soft and provides more feel than the radical, which felt brittle. the dunlops are also considerably heavier and feel much more stable, especially w/lead tapeon the throat. going back to the dunlop after a genuine and concerted effort to tailor the radical mid+ to my game made me realize how I was actually tailoring my game to the mid+. still, a great frame for the right game. recommended, if not for me

Super racket
By V. Vanderbent
Having played for over twenty years I never considered purchasing an advanced racket like the Liquidmetal Radical simply because I don't play very often. However, when I saw the pricedrop on it I just couldn't resist and you shouldn't either. For the first time ever I feel in control on the court. I had a Head racket before (Ti Fire), but I am giving it away because there is just no comparison. Virtually no vibration (when I hit the ball right of course), the shot goes in exactly the direction I want it to go, brilliant. I am very happy with this purchase. Midwest Sports came though very nicely, delivering in no time. An assistant at a local sport store told me this racket is being discontinued, so I bought another one just in case.

This line, next to Babolat Pure Drive Team (Mainly the Plus) and HEAD Prestige (Liquidmetal and Intelligence), is an elite line. Radical has been the most used racquet around here since we've come together as 13-14 year olds. Radical Liquidmetal is an applauded product from Head and we recommend it with great enthousiasm as a racquet for all club (U12/14+ categories) and above players. It works well with all ages.
