1836: Au contraire, Kelly. I don’t think anyone is expecting a goalfest. A match being dubbed the ‘dream final’ is almost certain to be a drab affair settled by one goal. But it has the potential to be a sensational game, and that’s what we’re all …

Head Flexpoint Radical Oversized Tennis Racquet The Head Flexpoint Radical OS Tennis Racquet is built for control with a large-sized, 107-square inch head and a standard 27-inch length. This Andre Agassi-endorsed racquet features an oversized head for a larger sweetspot. As the name implies, the Flexpoint Radical OS features Flexpoint technology (powered by Liquidmetal) for unparalleled control and power. It also features Total Sweetspot Construction for ultimate performance, and NoShox Dampening for reduced vibration and greater comfort. The lightweight construction is enriched with an attractive design and stylish graphics.
Liquidmetal technology was developed by the California Institute of Technology, and it adds loads of energy and power to the game of tennis. The secret of Liquidmetal performance is found in its liquid atomic structure that is 2.5 times stronger and delivers 29-percent more power than titanium.
Flexpoint technology is breaking the rules of traditional racquet design with two precisely engineered control holes that give the racquet a revolutionary new flexpoint–hence the racquet name. These two holes, positioned at three and nine o’clock on the racquet head, work together to bring power in control. The holes rest in a dimple that is engineered to create flexibility by reducing beam height by a maximum of 25-percent, while the hole increases sectional flexibility by up to 50-percent. With this added flexibility, the racquet has a cupping effect during ball impact. With this, ball dwell time in the racquet is increased and control is maximized. The cupping effect produces unparalleled control with no loss of power.
The Total Sweetspot Construction (TSC) delivers ultimate performance through its innovative corrugated structure. It increases torsional stability in the racquet head, thereby increasing the sweetspot. With Head’s TSC technology, the entire head of the racquet feel like a sweetspot.
NoShox Dampening System consists of a memory foam integrated into the racquet handle that significantly reduces racquet vibrations by more than 27-percent compared to conventional racquets. And with Head’s integrated string dampener, this racquet delivers great comfort and perfect sound.
