Overview
HEAD’s current product page identifies this model as the Radical 170 2025 racquetball racquet. This record preserves the published weight, balance, and classification fields without converting them into a play-test conclusion.
Construction and context
The reviewed HEAD specification section names a weight class, weight, balance, and a Two String Patterns label. It does not publish a material specification in those visible fields, so this entry does not attribute a construction material or technology outcome to the racquet.
Who it may suit
This entry can help a shopper compare HEAD’s stated 170 g weight, 268 mm balance value, and string-bed label with other catalogued models. The Expert and Tactical Player terms remain HEAD’s own labels and do not establish a player’s needs, skill, or results.
Specifications in context
- 170 g / 6.0 oz
- HEAD publishes this weight for the Radical 170 2025, making it a direct catalog comparison field rather than a guarantee for every racquet.
- Mid Balance, 268 mm / 10.6 in
- This is HEAD’s stated balance label and value; it is not a measured finding about handling or suitability.
Tradeoffs and caveats
- The 170 g figure is manufacturer-published product data, not an independent unit-by-unit measurement.
- Two String Patterns is HEAD’s product-page label; confirm the available setup and stringing details with the current official listing.
- A stated balance value cannot predict individual comfort, timing, or court performance.
