HEAD Gravity series - a closer look
HEAD has shaken things up with their Gravity series, you may have seen Alexander Zverev and now Ashleigh Barty wielding the racket and wondering if they had swapped rackets mid-match. Fear, not the racket has a unique flip design with a contrasting teal and a vivid red on either side of the frame, something not seen before in racket design.

Design - What makes it different
Spiralfibres which stretch and untwist on ball impact for even better energy transfer.
The Gravity rackets are finished in a unique flip design with a contrasting teal colour on one side of the frame, and a vivid red on the other.
The rackets have a teardrop head, which makes for a round head allowing for a wider bed of strings at the top of the frame. This is designed specifically by HEAD to increase the sweet spot, especially at the top of the frame, which is a must for the modern topspin player. The HEAD Gravity uses Head’s patented material, Graphene 360+. This is designed to give the racket a greater flex and to provide a super clean feeling on impact. With Graphene being such a strong material while being very lite it allows for better manoeuvrability and more power. The Gravity also features deeper string grooves, which allows for greater string movement, allowing for more spin and power. The Graphene+ also builds on HEAD's earlier use of Graphene by implementing Spiralfibres in the frame for the first time which stretch and untwist on ball impact for even better energy transfer.
