Feature:
• Extremely tough and lightweight
• Lightest high performance fiber in the
world today
• Combined with HEAD’s carbon composite
technology, Innegra™ forms an ultra
tough fiber
Innegra™ is the world’s lightest high performance fiber in the industry
today. HEAD’s advanced carbon composite technology combined with
Innegra™ forms an extremely tough fiber.
This new high composite structure is integrated into the racquet
for shock absorption and improved stability. Vibration at ball impact
is reduced by up to 17% for unmatched control and precision and is
easier on your arm.
-17%
HEAD’s new hybrid-composite structure considerably extends the
performance of your HEAD racquet at the highest level, giving you
consistent performance over the entire life of your frame.
ON HARD IMPACT
Benefit:
• Improved stability and increased shock
absorption
• Vibration on ball impact is reduced by
up to 17% for unmatched control and
precision
• Provides consistent performance over
the entire life of your frame
REWARD YOUR SPONTANEITY With d3o™
d3o™ belongs to the “smart materials” category and is a futuristic material with abnormal behavior characteristics. More
specifically d3o™ changes its behavior under dynamic loading or impact. Integrated in the lay-up and positioned in the shaft
area where the racquet flexes the most, d3o™ maximizes performance and offers new possibilities for players.
d3o™ is able to sense the needs of the players during different strokes. It’s able to adapt to YOU. On high speed impacts
(aggressive shots), the smart molecules lock together within nano seconds and dramatically increase the stiffness of the
racquet to provide maximum power. On slow speed impacts (slices or drop shots), the smart molecules absorb the impact
to provide a softer touch for better feel. What does this mean to a tennis player? Passing shots are even harder and drop
shots have more precision rewarding your spontaneity and supporting your courageous decisions.
REDUCE YOUR FRICTION
TO BOOST YOUR POWER.
HEAD Grommets with Teflon® friction
reducing polymer.
Friction is a force that holds back the movement of
a string when it comes into contact with a grommet.
The new HEAD Grommets with Teflon® friction
reducing polymer creates a self-lubricating effect
in the base material, allowing the strings to slide
through the grommets with nearly no friction for
much less energy loss and much more power.
Teflon® is a registered Trademark of DuPont® an is used under license by HEAD Sport AG.

QuadFace extends the stringbed at key points of the frame providing longer strings and an enlarged
sweetspot resulting in maximum power. Inner QuadFace is an indentation on the inside of the frame
that allows the strings to be more flexible before reaching the grommets, providing a more forgiving
sweetspot. Outer QuadFace extends the outside of the frame to allow the strings to be longer, which
provides more consistent power throughout the sweetspot.
