Racket Review — Head Radical Oversize (OS) & Lite Oversize

In this racket review we look at the Head Youtek Radical Oversize (OS) and the Head Youtek Radical Lite Oversize.

The Youtek technology causes the frame to get stiffer the harder you make contact with the tennis ball. This allows you to hit a little bit harder when you want to, but still gives you feel and control when you slow your swing down.

Here are some additional stats –

Radical Oversize –

Head size: 107 square inches
Unstrung weight: 10.4 ounces

Radical Lite Oversize –

Head size: 105 square inches
Unstrung weight: 9 ounces

Both rackets are very easy to swing, have big sweet spots, and aren’t particularly stiff. If you’re interested in demoing one of these rackets you can do so FOR FREE at TennisExpress.com.

    I’d like to request that you compare the various grip shapes. I think very vary quite a bit between different manufacturers.

    Just an idea. I think it would be interesting. :-)

    Hi. Great rewiew.
    I own a H. Liquidmetal 4, I would rate myself cca. 3.0- 3.5 NTRP. I started to feel that this racquet is a bit tooo powerful for my game. I wonder if I should change first to H Microgel Radical, or should I go straight for the YouTek….
    take care

    Man, if your a 4.0 12 year old you definitely shouldn’t be getting a racquet with a larger head size, thats ridiculous. You’ll spray so much more

    You can demo them for free (other than paying to have the racket shipped to you). Obviously you have to buy the racket to keep it.

    it’s more consistent and is easier to show his technique if he isn’t trying to hit all-out flat balls.
