Summary

The HEAD Boom TEAM EX is an elongated paddle with a 13mm polypropylene honeycomb core and a spray-on grit surface. Weighing 7.9 oz with a 5.5-inch grip, it has a swing weight of 116, placing it in the mid-range. The 13mm core may provide a blend of power and control. The spray on grit surface is designed for spin. Its elongated shape could offer a larger sweet spot. This paddle may be suitable for intermediate to advanced players seeking a balance between power and control. With high spin (2159 RPM), drive speed (55.8 MPH), and volley speed (36.9 MPH) ratings, it could be advantageous for aggressive play. However, the relatively low twist weight rating (3.0/10) might suggest slightly less stability on off-center hits. The mid-range swing weight may require moderate effort to swing.
