Radical MP 2025
Known as "The People's Racquet," the Radical has always sat between the Speed's all-round ease and the Prestige's demanding precision. The 2025 edition adds Auxetic 2.0 technology to the yoke and grip for a noticeably improved feel at contact, and Sound Grommets that enhance power through greater string movement while optimizing vibration. The result is the most comfortable Radical in the line's history — without sacrificing the controlled, measured response that made the series famous. At 300g unstrung with a 98 sq in head and 16x19 pattern, it slots perfectly between demanding and accessible.
