A now classic racquet, the Head Liquidmetal Radical comes in two sizes for the competitive player. First, we will take a look at a popular racquet used on the pro circuit, the Head Liquidmetal Radical Midplus.
While this racquet is a bit on the heavy side, it actually lends itself well to smooth ground strokes as a result. Everything feels steady and firm due to the racquet's weight, and the spin it puts on the ball is great.
In the serving department, the Liquidmetal Radical passes the test with flying colors. The sweet spot is sizable and allows for a smooth serve, and an equally comfortable return of serve.
The Liquidmetal Radical is one of the most successful racquets in tennis history as far as sales are concerned, and much of it has to do with the overall frame and comfort it gives to its owners.
The over-sized version of this player's racquet adds 9 square inches to the head size for those looking for a bigger sweet spot and a little more power with their Head Liquidmetal Radical.
While a larger head usually results in less control, we hardly noticed the difference in that department. The Radical had great control for an over-sized racquet.
Serving was great with the over-sized model too. The power was excellent and the control too, but it was somewhat harder to put spin on the ball when serving.
We found that spin was an issue on the ground as well. It was certainly easier to apply topspin to our ground strokes with the mid-plus than it was with the over-sized, but all in all, we were happy with both models.
Anyone looking for a steady racquet to complement their advanced game will be really happy with the Head Liquidmetal Radical. We certainly were.
