Summary

The HEAD Extreme Tour MAX is a standard-shaped paddle with an 11mm polypropylene honeycomb core, known for balancing power and control. The graphite face is often associated with control and feel. Weighing 8.1 oz with a low swing weight of 97, this paddle should be easy to maneuver. The 4.125-inch grip may be less suitable for players preferring two-handed backhands. The paddle's spin rating is 8.1/10, placing it in the 84th percentile for spin generation. Its twist weight is 5.62, with a rating of 3.3/10, falling in the 13th percentile. This suggests potential challenges maintaining stability on off-center hits. The combination of maneuverability, a spin-oriented face, and a balanced core may make this paddle suitable for players prioritizing control and spin. While the lighter weight enhances maneuverability, it might limit power generation.
